It has me a little concerned. A few of us around here have been promoting 1/8 buggy conversions for a while. We have a nice group of racers now and we are preparing for the outdoor season. Nearly all of us run the Mamba Max and Neu motors (there are a few Feigao's). This Novak kit is going to bring a new batch of guys into the loop, which is great. Problem is that they are going to find that their system is inferior. They will see the MM/Neu guys going 20-25 minutes with no problems, while they battle heat. They will find that they need to upgrade and their Novak kit is nearly useless. So, how many of these "new" 1/8 buggy racers will upgrade to a proper system and how many will just drop out?
