Well I took the plunge and just ordered a Barracuda from Speedtech. I got tired of switching my Xray between asphalt and carpet so I got the barracuda to run carpet. I am looking forward to running somthing diffrent than the TC3's and Losi's running at the track. Will be bugging you guys for advice shortly

pkranger63,

Thank you for your order and we welcome you to the R2 club here on R/C Tech

elnitro,

I don't mind at all, it is my job The important thing with any new car is support, not just in parts, but also knowledge on building, setting up...etc. Only with these support will the car gain popularity, and actually, I should be thank you all for your support for the R2 so far.

Thanks again,

Steve Wang

Steve,
Well then, if you don't mind, please get back to work on updating your website for the R2 hop-ups. Some of us are really itching for those. Don't come back until you're done.

yes master, right away master...hahahahaha

I believe Alex racing will be soon releasing their own line of aluminum C-hubs, knuckles and rear hub carrier.

As for the titanium turnbuckles, we have them in stock, the complete set with the wrench (I'll get them online) Monday night is when everything should be on there. Ready to be shipped by Tuesday.

So did anyone get to run their new ride this weekend? I would think the reports will start to roll it!

Steve, how much of the servo Ears do you need to trim off for the servo to fit in the car?

Default Sway-bar sets at Speed Tech?



Mr. Wang,

I wanted to ask if you had received the sway-bar sets yet? (Built the car with the short arms for So Cal)

BTW - spoke with Dave on my drive back Friday. He had his car in hand....looks we will both be running the Cuda this Tues. night
