Now that my new workshop is up and running the thoughts has start spinning around the front mid-diff mount in aluminium again Hope to start the work on the mount anytime soon. I have talked about making this earlier here in this thread. Have already searched through my RC8e-parts box and found the plastic one for reference

Shell installed. Ed does good work! Very clean lines! Finally had some time off to install them. I have so much work to do! Grid is first on the list to finish up.

The body's look fantastic Greg, what a top job. Was that photo taken in your kitchen? If so, you have a great, and very understanding wife!

Haha! Just an apartment while I'm in California. House is in Arizona. And divorced in 2007. I make the rules. Lol.

Thanks for the comment. Hitaslice painted them.

Looks great Gregg!!! I need to get some time to trim up a couple of my bodies and take a few pictures. Just finding time is really tough right now. I know you have the same problem Gregg.

Nice....

Thanks Billy. Yes busy is hardly the word! Glad I could get them installed. I'm going to try to get a lot finished tomorrow

Well, not really "clean" lol. But the shells look great!

It's clean enough! I can't wait for thecar, i'm going to be really bored tomorrow and the rest of monday haha. Have you always had that 44.1?

Yeah, "The Car" is nice!!

And I've had the 44.1 about a month.

I wish we had an indoor track here in bakersfield, but since we don't I didn't really see the point in my buying 10th since we mainly race 8th, and 4wdSC.
They both look really good! A solid red paintjob is going on THEcar, bahaha.

What do you think about the 44.1?

Hey guys I just bought my RC8BE last Thursday and have been slowing preaching it together. Havnt decided what motor to run tho. Whats the best for track purposes? I hear you what to go with a higher kv rating on buggies and gear them high? Is this true ?

It's better to be overgeared than undergeared in a sense. But I've done a little testing between my rc8be and ve8 and i've noticed that the 1900/rx8 combo works well in both, but the rc8be is really heavy. Truggy motor with stock gearing unless you're running on a huge track, go up a couple of teeth on the pinion.
