Hey sleeb, hows it going over there? Quiet without me, Im enjoying my exile overhere. I've been thinking about your cooling problem too- would it bother you to put a couple small holes in your body; if not then I have a nice solution. What body you got on the BL buggy- drill two holes where the head lights would go, and then run some nice wide tubing from there to the esc, that way when your driving along the air is drawn in through the holes, down the pipes, and onto the esc, kinda like a ram scoop real cars use in place of a head light. If the body is the wrong shape then just mount the tube in the window say, and direct it right down onto the esc, but not touching obviously. I reckon something like that would work great, if not then it would have to be a small fan on the esc. Good luck at any rate and tell SOD I said hi!

EDIT: I just watched the vid, wow that things fast & I see the shell now. Hmm, my idea wont work- instead what about a scoop either side of the nose (symetry+better airflow) that goes in under/through the sides of the shell then direct them onto the esc, and hold in place with....voodoo magic?
