I got a chance to run the Copperhead 10 this weekend on low bite asphalt. I got it working extremely well. The car worked flawlessly and i was really pleased. I tried a bunch of the new adjustments out and found the setup very quickly. The cool part is that i was able to stick with the Lilac spec tires and still have good traction. I will post the setup shortly.

The car looks really good. Once again you did something much different then anyone else has ever done. There are some BMI guys at our local track so looking foward to seeing one up close.

Hey Guys,

We have been getting alot of requests for a 235mm conversion for the Copperhead 10 lately so i have decided to go ahead with a 235mm version of the car. I dont want to go with a conversion with flakey extenders and such so i have decided to release a full blown 235mm car. You will soon be able to buy the car in either 200mm or 235mm and they will be designed to fit 2s LiPo saddle and stick packs.

Thanks jason, will the pro10 be availlable with the new front end you were talking about for some time now? Is the front end finalised yet and how does it look like? Any sneak peaks?

Thatīs real great news.
But please, make a real battery mounting system not just slots for tape. I really hate tape.

I am finishing the cad drawings now. I should have the prototype cut by the end of next week. Being that there is quite a bit changing(wider pod, new chassis,changed wheelbase and suspension geometry for the weight and speed) I need to do alot of testing to make sure it actually performs the way i want it to. If all goes according to plan, a late may early june release will not be a problem. I will keep you posted
