glassdoctor,

After what you said about the Hackers, they weren't such a deal after all. If you are interested, I mentioned the prices in my last post. They are on Hacker's site under "clearance."

I got my buggy running. I don't have any 4S lipos yet. I don't know what's up with Maxamps. Second order in a row that didn't ship in 48 hours as advertised. Anyway, I ran it on 3S with the 7XL. If there is better out there, I'd rather not know about it right now so that I can enjoy my blissful ignorance. It's a killer setup. I'm running a 14T pinion. It isn't really fast, but man does it take off. I can't wait to get it on the track.

I also picked up an 8L. I know it's going to run hot and I know I won't be able to run races with it. I just got it for the parking lot stuff. Nothing but short sprints and then a break. It should do nicely for that sort of stuff.

Thanks again for all of the help.

Oh, class of '83 here. Boy do I feel old. LOL.
