the brushless is is anywhere from 225.00 to 279.00.it all just depends on where you buy your stuff. Ebay is a good place to look and tower hobbies.i would shop around and look

*Rear Bright Yellow 25mm, 40 weight oil, 1.5 camber & Purple sway bar.
*The front and rear toe are the fixed links that come with the kit, they work really well.
Sat. & Sun. I ran 33r's Frim front & Soft rear inserts
I really would recommend the Brushless System now that we have the thermalling somewhat under control. I would like to see it go with a brushed motor just to see it and the difference it would or may make in the car. We are all running the 48 pitch gears and I am currently running an 87 spur and 26 pinion gears. I would get the heat sink motor plate from Pete Faust, they work great. I would also consider getting the Associated cooling fan which Mike and I are looking into ordering soon. We will wait to order if you want one too.

Well it looks like a pretty simple car not much to deal with compared to the nitro version. I think I am going to give the brushed motor a shot first since I have all the equipment already if that doesn't work out I will go with the brushless. I can't imagine the car being that much heavier than my T3 so running a brushed motor should work.

True dat
Yes, True not much to deal with and pretty good right out of the box.....except the gearing. when or if you get the car, bring it up and we'll go over it really good to get you up to speed. I realize you probably got a handle on things but I want you to know that there is no trick or anything any of us in this division wouldn't tell you. We wanna race and have good close battles and see who can put it down.
By the way, Mike Brad & Shane, congrats on fun Super "E" weekend tournament. I had alot of fun runnin' with you guys.
It looks like the never say never theme has been broken again, now lets welcome Allen with open A-arms. Allen.....looks like you'll own another HPI It is a really fun car, don't you worry.

I am going to give Lou a call tomorrow and see how much he can get one for me. I found some brand new threaded shocks on ebay that I am going to bid on. I wonder if the associated springs would work I have plenty of those.
#83
Lou can help ya
I am pretty sure Lou can get it for 189.99 but you may find NIB on ebay for less. I would like to see you go through Lou as he is a great supporter of our series. I also know someone in California that has one for sale with the threaded shocks and steering stuff. It is used and I believe he wants $175.00 including shipping. if you are interested. Actually he is RCBuddha on here. He did mention he may wait to see if some more guys in SoCal get some Super "E"'s before he sells.
#84
I will be sending RCBuddha a email tonight that might be the way to go. Ben you are a evil man I got hooked driving that car for the No Bull Race.

Dr. Evil
It is all apart of my evil scheme!!
Maybe Jeff Higgins will get a Staduim Truck now too...He did really well with it. I think the best way to get someone into a class is to let them drive and set the hook. I am glad you had fun and I know our races in this division will be very good!!

I was just thinking you are number 11 in that class I can't get that car because I will have to change my number. Just kidding!

Oh course I will take it. Well it looks like I am commiting to this thing. Did you guys make any changes to your front and rear diffs. I have the upgraded diffs that I had in my Super those should work in the electric version, right?
