Thanks Pete!
She only chases it when I'm running my cars in the grass, she knows shes not supposed to chase when I'm on the track.
She a very smart and obedient dog. I actually have been having her chase it this spring to give her a little exercise, she's gained a couple pounds this winter. 
Love all the positive compliments you give everyone, keep it up!

Had a great first outing with my et48. Got here Friday at 6pm had it done by 1am. Saturday I ran it for the first time at our round 3 or HARC. Ended up starting 4th in the bmain and hit the win and the bump to the a main. Finished 6th in the 1st a and 7th in the second amain. I had no practice with this truck other than the qualifiers . So getting 6th in the amain out of 3 full heats of truggy made me pretty happy. The truck ran great and there were also 2 other teknos in the amain.

Built the truggy in a couple of evenings, and raced it today for the first time. All I can say is WOW. Great kit, handles like it's on rails with stock setup. Only thing I changed was use the recommendations from this forum, primarily 10/15/5 diff oils, and the 14mm rear diff case screws (instead of 10mm stock). I finished mid-pack one full lap off the pace (10 minute main, fast guys turning 30-31 second laps, I turned ~33-34 typical). Car feels very planted and stable, I have the 1900kv buggy motor turned way down (50% throttle travel on radio and 50% current limited on ESC) and there is still way too much power for my driving style.
Building the kit was a dream, everything fit well, high quality parts throughout. Followed all the build tips on this forum (thanks guys, very helpful).
Only complaint is the diff shims (on outside of diff bearings). I understand why they're there to fine-tune the ring/pinion gear mesh, but it's the only part of the kit that seems like an afterthought or like there could/should be a more elegant solution. Other than that little minor nit, everything else is completely easy to build, 10/10, well done Tekno.
