My rendition of the long chassis with my new Finnisher all mounted up. I've been loving the worlds setup with Kyosho Dk Yellow rear and Orange front springs. I had the Cobalts in the back, but think I like the Dk Yellows better. I wish I had some Dk Yellow fronts to try too.
What has everyone been doing for a battery strap? I noticed it's about a quarter of an inch too short to tuck under the rear tower like it's supposed to.

Yup. But after the 2nd round of quals today I heard Cav going off about his car. He didn't sound very happy with some aspect of it - not sure if it was the long chassis. The track for Nats is high grip, hard-packed dirt, outdoor. It's a pretty large layout with a lot of big jumps.
Tebo wasn't doing any better with his long chassis RB5. I'm starting to wonder if the long chassis is right for this track. Of course the Losi 22's are doing really well and they're even longer...

Probably. They have a new wing out that clears the wheels; they call it a 6.5" Hi-Clearance Wing, part number 0122. I believe it was designed specifically to compliment the Finnisher body.
I wish I would have been able to buy some when I got some spare wings a couple weeks ago... The old ones drag on the wheels when the suspension is compressed.

i just had an lrp replaced and 2 weeks after the sensor board died according to lrp tech, the stock spec randomly shut off wth no wires touching and that was it, i am done sending these back to lrp. Again anybody who would like to buy a replaced lrp comp v2 or stock spec v2 pm me . Will do trades.
Only used it in my B4.1 with a 13.5 turn motor and 2s LiPo for 2 weeks .
It was smooth as butter before it shut down for no reason what so ever .
I live near AE in So Cal . They do LRP repairs . So I am going to take it down their on Monday to have it fixed or replaced . Thank God for that . If I had to mail my brand new $230 ESC to Germany to be repaired , I would be so pissed !!!
Still might have to ? Hopefully the AE guys are cool . It says on thier website and I heard from a guy at the track that they do LRP repairs .
Otherwise I will be waiting weeks !!!!
Might have to go back to my Novak stuff for a while . Never thought my Novak gear would be more reliable than ....................

Seemed like the older esc's (sphere,gtb,etc) were more reliable that the newer stuff. No issues with these, heck I'm still running an old gtb and sphere in a couple cars and keep going strong.

yup same here, i feel like lrp sucks as far as quality but they work well when they do. I wish they didnt stop making spheres.
