Jason,
Good day of racing up here today too. 4th through 9th in the A were separated by 3.5 seconds. Some really close racing in 19T. In turn 1, I jumped from 8th to 4th and something weird happened. Before I could blink the car flipped through the air and nailed the brick wall at the end of the track. I checked out the car real quick and I broke a body mount and lost 2 body clips. 44 seconds later I was back on and the car was great. Just can't wait for a new addition to my rc car family to make it better.
The top 3 finishers were Cyrul, Barry Z, and Dave Johnson. Then all of us normal humans behind them.

Jason -
Just got the TC3 chassis together ( Yes, I realize I'm a year+ behind everyone else
) It looks great! I polished all the standoffs and motor mount to a mirror finish. It looked so good I had to take all the anodizing off the driveshaft, shock bodies, battery brace and CVDs. ( just say no to blue!) The polished parts go real well with the titanium colored chassis. I'll post some pics tomorrow.
Thanks for a great product Jason!

I looked at the car carefully and the left rear tire was peeled from the wheel on the edge. that was the reason for the triple sow-cow and double axle into the wall. Just wonderful.

sweet dude,keep me posted.
well,i did alot of testing last night with the new fk05 kit.i finally hit a real nice setup and my god,this thing went through the corners real fast.it felt as there was no resistance going through the corners.i still want a little more rear traction and am going to try a few more things but i am extremely pleased with the results as of now.i have access to a real nice track at my convenience thanks to dave at B and B hobbies which is allowing me to do alot of testing.i should have testing complete real soon along with a killer asphalt set up.
