Sorry for the long wait, here comes update and finished pics.

I have run the tekno 8ight with electri-cluth( to all the electri-crap haters, hehe)and mek brakes at r/f 70/30 many times and it has easily become my favourite car. It runs cool at 13/48, and handles perfectly. I love the tekno stuff. Though my new used MBX-6 will have mikes mount, mek brakes and slipperential, just to try several nice setups.

Setup is MMM, 6s 3000mah, and medusa 1600kv, still waiting for the 1300kv i ordered weeks ago, its been shipped though. With the new motor I also ordered the new one-piece 3-shoe clutch and severall ti-ni bells, should be a nice upgrade. The 1600kv will go in the new car.

Temps are:
Motor:120f
ESC:100f
Batts:110f

I choose the tall/short battery on purpose to get the weight more to the front.

As you can see in the pics I had to use a slightly odd brake linkage setup, since using an Y-cable I can not change the direction of the brake servo. I have a used DX3.0 on the way to get the needed mixing and use normal linkage. I only payed 70$ for the DX3.0 with two recievers, and I bought two more recievers from another seller today cheap. The DX3S does not have mixing of the channel 2 and 3, otherwise I would have gone with that.

Here are the finished pics, thanks for reading.
