OK, some progress and a small set back. No big deal I cut the rear carbon fiber rods a little too short, and I will have to get another set. I did manage to get the ESC mounted and I bolted up the motor (no pinion gear yet I'm not sure which one I will go with). I started running the ESC wires but ran out of shrink wrap. I will finish that tomorrow. I used a tube from an old spray bottle cut it down the middle and then covered it with some wire loom that I found a local computer store shrink wrapped it at both ends and this is what I have done so far. The wire that is showing is just temporary. I'm still waiting for the tires to cure. I think I will wait for 24 hours. All I have to do is mount the receiver and pick a pinion gear, I still have to solder traxxas ends on to my batteries and I think I will use Velcro to hold them down for now just to get this thing rolling. Here are a few pics......
