Got to run the truck for awhile now, about 10 minutes of hard running on blacktop. I'm running a set if stock slash wheels so I don't destroy my new tires or race tires. I used the speed calculator and my gearing puts me about 35 mph, but the truck seemed like it was doing closer to 40. I need to play with the slipper and the front clicker to get it the way I want it but it wasn't a bad start, slipper is a little loose and the front clicker is a little tight. The truck handled great and was very stable. I like the slight over drive on the front as it allows it to pull out of a turn better. The truck wouldn't flip! I thought with a little higher cg it might flip on blacktop but nope, it spun out but wouldn't flip. The motor was 109* at the hottest point I could find, esc was 89*, and I didn't bother with the lipo cause it wasn't even warm. The bec didn't have any issues keeping it all powered up.

Overall I'm very happy with the truck, can't wait to see it on the track now. I can almost see myself selling my MT and getting another one to bash with.
