The Monster XT8 conversion has been a solid performer for awhile now. I had been told by a few pro's who are racing ebuggy that the common, flat, two screw motor mounts are weak and flex too much. They are all using the elite RC/Xray/Losi sliding mount.

I thought nothing of it until I needed to find out why my truggy had a weird sound coming from the drive train. It turned out that the upper motor mount screw bent and the mesh was slightly angled. I also noticed that the motor had slapped the chassis a few times by the marks and slight dent in the can.

Are there any plans by Mike to make a slide type mount? Does anyone know if these mounts would fit the full Monster XT8 conversion?
