well it finally stoped raing for an hour so I took it for a rip on the steet and am I ever happy very stable and fast, I will have to do some changing of did fluids since my front tires turned into pizza cutters.Unfortunately my gps doesnt have a top speed memory so im not shure on speed yet as for weight the only way i have at the moment is me on scale me off scale it is 9lbs with my brick of a battery. I hope I can pickup a scale this weekend and ill post an accurate weight.
My only thing im not very happy with is how close I had to put the brake servo to the center diff mount it makes it a pain to change pinions. I have to loosen the servo right off to take a pinion on and off.

I was oly able to run for about 5 min in between a quik rain stop but so far the motor pulls very strong I have no problem pulling wheelys at half throttle and ballons tires no problem. as soon as it stops raining ,hopefully by the weekend ill get some temp numbers up and also some weight numbers as well.
I am also cog free very smooth.

That is in the ballpark for weight(assuming you have a healthy 3s pack to handle the load). 9 pounds will likely be an inaccurate weight - the "human scale" method is nowhere near accurate enough for these light weights, so when dropy gets an accurate scale, his truck will tip the scales at well over 10 pounds. Most truggies can get around or just under 10 pounds with 4s, 5000mah and some thought. 10 pounds and change is about the norm with a 5s setup. Not sure I would even think about 3s on a truggy personally. :)

well it didn't last long just before I was going to take it to the track I took it for a rip to make shur everything was ok after 5 min I stopped to check temps and went to take off again and my esc died o well I was kind of expecting it since it is from the first batch of monster max. So I took my e-savage that only lasted about 5min before I spun my magnet off the shaft.
