That's a sick body dude, nice work!!
I never thought about mounting my esc that direction, I've got my solder posts facing the rear of the car. Something to consider I guess.

thanks man! a local guy painted it for me. he did a great job and also painted one for my SC10 and B44.1(that will probably be for sale soon). i still need to put a few decals on them. with the esc mounted that way, it lets you use a really short sensor wire from a touring car for a much cleaner wiring job

I don't think 2 iPads are worth that. I sold my iPad in June anyway. So that wouldn't work. Ill be in Rohnert Park for a birthday party.
