The 6000 28C is supposed to be the gun pack for both stock AND mod. I would love to get my hands on them but they are not legal here in Oz.

Bee, here's a few pics. Sorry they are not better, I had to take them with my phone in the hotel room at Vegas. Had to send the car back to T.O.P. as it was just over here for show and tell. As you can see, its all T.O.P., no AE or CRC parts (not that that would be a bad thing) 
We did learn one thing about the car, though, and that's to not let Frank Calandra hold it!

Good luck OD and the TOP team.
Take care.-Bruce

DING!!
That makes sense. I was going to make a smart-ass remark about "faith", but Mike's quick explanation shows that it was "science". And an example of the first REAL brushless-specific pod as it takes advantage of the multiple mounting holes in the can faces of all the major bl motor players.
I may have to re-visit my resolution to not buy a new 1/12 car this year...

Some places still use round cells, you can put a lipo in a 4 cell car, but you can't put cells in a lipo chassis. Plus, guess what one of the first option parts will be
As far as I can tell, this car is 100% of what is in Josh's CAD drawings of the Rebel. He was like a little kid at Christmas showing it around at the IIC, he should be very proud of this design

In which case it really should be offered as another version rather than the chassis separate as an option. Right? If done as an option that would, to be honest, be a deal-breaker for me and I can't imagine I'd be terribly alone in that thinking.
