The quicrun esc has a 2a BEC, and mine has been fine with a high torque servo and my light and sound units. The stock TBLE-02S esc was failing far too regularly (even without lights etc) so the cost of the Quicrun esc (which also has a true lipo cut off) was better than trying to replace the stock esc, is essentially bulletproof and can handle a bit of water if we do venture onto a damp track. We also proved that there was no performance difference in top speed etc by changing to that esc, so it was an easy decision.

Got to run run mine for the first time on road Friday night, What a blast, box stock no mods aloud, no grease on the shocks, no weights, just a whole lot of fun. I gotta say if you're a must win at all cost DON"T BUY ONE!!!!!!! this is just for fun and laughs. the most enjoyable class of the evening again the other classes are all about set up and who can send the most money. RC racing has become a rich man sport with
$200.00 17.5 motors, battery chargers, battery dischargers, all the lightened parts. I can't hardly complete in stock buggy any more, there are guys with more money in their stock buggy and stadium truck than in my real car it's out of hand in my opinion if this turns into who can spend the most money or cheat around the rules class I just might give up on the whole RC hobby!!!

Local HobbyTown has had for fun racing on Sunday for about 5 years. Mostly been 1/18. Few recently decided to go Euro trucks a try. Look pretty good on the 1/2 sized layout. I did get to do some laps. Better then I had expected. And will consider it in future

Is the new body style going to be legal to run in the class? I mean it is in real life so they should honor it but i feel it is an advantage.
