I won't argue with you there. Just would like to see pics of Drake or Hodge's paint scheme on that puppy. Speaking of Hodge.....is he still wheeling or just a behind the scenes type guy now??? I'm painting up one body with my scheme and one with a tribute to Matt Francis

Hodge had a pic of his 22 on Facebook not too long ago. It looks sweet with his paint scheme. Maybe Todd can post it here. I've also seen Matt Chambers', Mike Truhe's, and Dakotah's cars posted in various places - all look fantastic...

I haven't seen Frank's car yet - Frank? Got a pic of that ride yet?

I'm sure I'll see some of these guys at the JConcepts nationals in July in Chico or at the Nationals at Norcal.

And it looked like in one of the pictures that Dustin had a 22 in mid-motor configuration? Maybe it wasn't his car, or maybe mid-motor will become more popular here?

His body is on the box so if you see a display shot of his car in mid it could just be a show car as well.

This is a video from last nights club race. I was using the new Xcelorin 60C 3800mah 7.4v battery. My car was 1-2 tenths faster per lap using these batteries.

Thanks for the video Matt. Looks like you have pushed the level of the local guys! They are pretty quick!

I noticed that the buggys are landing hard with a slap off of the big triple. Your buggy was very quiet on landing.... Is that due to how you are landing or set up or the big bores?

I think it's a little of how I downside it but more the big bores than anything. My car lands really plush off that jump even if I miss the downside. If I hit the downside perfect it lands like a pillow

For anyone wondering about the battery... I used between 1200-1500mah in a 6 minute race with a 2 minute warmup. This is also on a very hi bite track

What's up Matty? To bad you couldn't make it to C-Bus this year for the midwinters. Car looked really good in that video. Good luck at the Reedy Race.

If you see the car in action it does land really soft with those big bores. Kind of cool to watch!

Well I have never ran 2wd buggy.

I run 2wd SC but its more to fill the race day then something that I actually "Enjoy"

Looking forward to trying this out. Not to mention the forum support and friendly racers help also.

I will literally buy or not buy products based upon how the "pros" are at the track. The Losi and hot bodies guys where I have racer are nothing but friendly.

Keep up the good work everyone, and I look forward to trying the new car and battery. Already have the motor and speedo sitting here =)
