just thought i would let everyone know how my fist time out with my new truggy went. pics tell the story! the brushless system had no downfalls at all, zero issues.
maximum temps. after 15 laps wot on a 650' oval
motor 155*
esc 112*
battery 99*
no fans used! rc-monster went WAY above and beyond my expectations!
luxury!

they say they are willing to start a class just for us in the FL state series. would you be interested in racing you AWSOME truggy in the state series ?.
thanks guys! i had a blast with the truggy. it took a few laps to get used to having no clutch again, but whan i finally hit wot , nothing could touch me! the nitros were hanging closer than i thought. at wot, i was 5- 10 mph faster on the straights.
dafni, i had to take your advice and put this thing through the ringer. everything was fine with the truggy except for my goof up. i tightened up the steering turnbuckle to much and it pushed its way through the plastic rod end, cracking it. put som ca on it and never looked back, cartwheels and all, lol!

rchippie, i would hit events near the tallahassee area. i don't travel much.
I tried to enter a small club championship (in sweden) with my brushless matrix but they wouldnt allow me race with an electric! :(
But if you think about it I can see their point, there are alot of restrictions on nitro buggies but there are none on brushless buggies/truggies. Is there any rules and/or restrictions with brushless in the states?

Reason: Spelling
the only "real" brushless racing is in 10th scale, right now. i think the only restriction is that it has to be rebuildable like novak or lrp systems. and then there are classes for different motors like a 27.5 class or a 10.5 class.
Very nice. Too bad they won't get further ahead on this race scene. Meaning, come out with better specifications on rules so guys can go and race in more classes.
