Is it true that Mach 2 motors are like a half turn fast?

So a 17.5 would feel more like a 17.0?

All dressed up and no motor to go.... I am waiting on a Tekin Gen2/Gen2 8.5t to go in it. The build was really good, I found that everything went together just as it was supposed to.. I have ordered 2 Turnigy A-Spec 4200mah shorty batteries to go in it as well. Are most people running the inline setup with the battery towards the front and the esc behind it?

They just ran the JConcepts Indoor Nationals at Mike's Hobby Shop in Carrollton and Maifield posted the setup he used there so I copied just copied it as that is where I normally run. Well, everything except for the three hole pistons, I have not seen them anywhere. This is my first into 1/10th buggies so I am looking forward to it......whenever my Tekin stuff gets here! I am thinking that it will make for a good combination myself.

Car looks great. Did you do the paint? That's some nice work.

Strange question.
Does anyone have or know where I can get a CAD model of the B4.2, Solidworks preferable.
Thought I would ask the question before I starting making one.
Cheers

I think I have the 1.7's up front and 1.6's in back. It is the same setup that Thielke ran at the JConcepts, the rest of the setup is Maifields. I figured it was a place to start.. Since I have never run buggy I really do not know that I will be able to tell a difference one way or another at first.

Yes, I painted the body. Everything I did is really easy to do, I do not paint much. I enjoy it, just do not like having to buy new bodies! Especially the SCT bodies, those things are getting expensive.
