I don't know what that is, but I can assure you that is not from AE.
The front bumper isn't AE and the arms don't look right either.

Definately is NOT Cav's car.

As Sean said, that is 100% not an AE car, nor is it Cavalieri's car, Ryan doesn't run a JConcepts body nor a LRP car.

That is Joern Nueman's LRP car.

the track was slippery clay, I didnt have any clay tires, had to stick with m3 holeshots, Would have been way better with some suburbs.

i would like to know whatthe new bce chassis weighs, i have my buggy down to 7lb10oz rtr and my goal is about 7lb 4oz. I liked the snr chassis but didn't like the lack of gear box seals.
A plus for the bce is that with the 3mm added length i could have the same wheelbase running the "short wheel base setup" which would give the real a lil more weight and traction. since lightening my buggy the rear comes around a lil to easily.
The BCE sounds really good and i feel if i get some of them towers from snr( and hopefully some riserless arms from AE) i will make my weight goal!
Thanks

has anyone tried to see if the mugen alum. diff cups work on the RC8. I tried the AE ones and didn't last. i have a buddy with a mugen and he got a whole season out of his and still had one set of holes left. Thanks

I had a quick question for you guys who have replaced your center CVD's...when you replace them do you have to destroy the snap ring that holds the CVD pin in place or does the snap ring pry off without being destroyed? I have to replace mine soon and was wondering if I would need to buy the snap rings as well...please let me know if you know.

Thanks!
