I heard back from Losi on the wheel rubbing issue - let me rephrase that...My calls and email messages continued to go unanswered so I kept calling until someone picked up the phone...anyway the guy who answered said that it was a known issue and that what he and "all the drivers" do is back down the EPA on their radios. I also asked about those +2mm hubs and he said he prefers the stock setup.

The parade of somewhat weak answers continued when I asked about the delays on the 8ight-E 2.0 and he said that it would be shipping sometime in the middle of April.
