All painted from the inside... Need to work on the bondo look... But the fact is you are the master, I was just playing with some ideas... Mixed up some rust color and bondo color (it is to pink)...

I was trying to create a rusted out chrome around the windows... And on purpose uneven with the colors backed with White to give it that weathered look.. Still playing with mixing colors... ;-)

I'm just waiting for Snowy to ask me to bring a extra with me so we have the twins on the track...

Hey Guys I updated the Voltage rules to get inline with ROAR. They are now at 8.4V and 4.2V still its pass fail. We will allow you to come up early before the races start to check the voltage with the series volt meeter and make sure your with in spec.

Also rules reguarding ESC's if your ESC is on the list then you can use it. I know that some of you guys have the new SP Reventon Pro ESC it uses the same approved software that the Reventon Stock Club uses "Stock0" and it is approved. I will talk this over with Brad when hes back from Vegas and get you guys the final word word on this if you can use the Pro for this race until its updated on ROAR's list.

That would be a worthy distraction.

Ok guys I talked it over with Brad and we are going to keep it the way it is that you can only use whats on the ROAR list of approved ESC's. We fully understand that its the same software that is legal but the ESC is not. We dont want to open a door that will allow more in later for is. So Im sorry for the guys that have the ESC you will not be able to use them in Blinky until they are listed on the ROAR list.

Sweep QTS 32's...Jaco Blues...Solaris Meds all work well and you can get your car to work around each of them. It comes down to which one you like more one tire isnt faster then the rest from what we saw last year.
