$89 your price? Or $89 our price? No more teasing us with the dealer pricing.

Looks like a good bag though. I may get one if the price is right.

I knew it! Im interested, but then you are talking another $20-$30 for shipping. That thing is huge and heavy.

Just finished re-wiring my rig. i turned the esc so the posts are facing toward the center of the chassis and shortened up all the motor wires. Picked up a 100mm LRP flexible sensor wire too, perfect fit!! Im stoked with how it turned out, much cleaner than before!

PS - notice the battery Gregg?

Yeah Jason, that looks good. I don't know what's gotten into me. But I want that motor esc combo. And the Gens Ace! I see that. I like it a lot more than the blue lipo that's for sure. And they are 5C charge capable! I'll charge that pig at 20 amps!

Thanks for the length on the sensor wire. I was looking for something shorter than the wire that came with the Tekin setup.

I couldn't resist going outside for a little bit since most of the ice has melted, although it's crazy cold out (for Texas, at least, 19F!). Anyway, the Ofna belted slicks hardly balloon at all. Since it was so cold, traction was almost nonexistent, even on dry concrete! It was still fun to drive the car a bit, although my hands were hating life with the cold and the wind.
