You need better use of the smilies to show sarcasm then. It is really hard to "read" inflection in a post without it kind of being "spelled out" if you know what I mean!

Keep up the good work.

LOL, I think your sarcasm was obvious....it was the other post that was silly.

Now if only it would have been out before Cactus.....

Also, the kit comes with steel tie-rods that are pretty strong but the titanium will be lighter and stronger still.
On the blocks are their high roll center and low roll center blocks ? One says HRC and the other says LRC .

The kit comes with Low Roll Center blocks. They will work best for most med-high bite tracks, indoor, smoother tracks. This is what the team have been running mostly. The high roll center (HRC) will work well on outdoor, loose, loamy, bumpy tracks. It is a good tuning option.

One or Two color wonder is all i'm doing for the body on my 22. Theres not a whole lot of body to get fancy with, and I would really like to have it all ready to race in SLC for April Fools.

Ok Losi reps, any chance of ordering and receiving a body for the 22 before the actual kits are delivered?

Most asked question for the past few weeks. This is very unlikely. The reason is that the car need to be all but done before the design of the body can really start, so we are not able to work ahead on this item.

You can mount the ESC infront of the battery, if you do you will be limited to the short battery. If you mount the ESC on the tray (which the team is doing), you can go back and forth between regular and short batteries.

The short battery makes the car handle much better though
Does Losi make a 5m hex? Can't seem to find one.

Np, thanks for answering.

Is there a part number for the high roll center block?

You package mine up just like that and I will gladly skip racing the Cactus. Hit me with a total $$ amount and I will be there with cash in hand.
