I just got the word from him about an hour ago.

Jeff is really busting his hump to get and keep the cool stuff in stock.

Gizmo, can you perhaps show a picture of the 64P and 48P gears setups with a battery installed?

Also, is that 48P spur gear you have installed a special one, or is it just a regular one? Did it fit without issues?

There is now a lot of talk about the problem with the Xray T2008 regarding the battery and spur touching. Could someone post a pic of the clearance of the pinion, spur and battery in the TRF416?

Thanks for the pics Gizmo, that has eased my mind. Here is a pic of the Xray T2-008. The person had to flatten the battery bar, and even then can only get the pinion to mesh with about 2/3'rds of the spur.

The batteries are what they call 'walking the thin rope'

...

Looks like a nice car. But I probably still stick to my 415MRE. Lacking the races in my local scene to rander a change.

In rubber - this car is going to be a weapon, no doubt!

you got that right.

Great, even Canada gets the 416 before I do. That's messed up.

Does the mount that secures the motor plate to the chassis keep the battery from sliding into the pinion gear? I'm wondering if it'll help keep LiPo from sliding inward as well.
