looks sweet. should i put mine back together and give you a fair race some time? i've stepped out of rc for a bit, and recently tried to sell off parts from my yusa, with little hits. i'm thinking about just putting it back together and play with it again.

you guys still racing west side on weekends?

I took my GTP out last weekend for some test runs and its awesome.I ran 3s with a TE Neu 1512/1.5d and went to 4s and had some real fun.The body vibrates alot at high speed but its pretty easy controling it compared to a 1/10 car.Here are some pics.

I too find the 1/8 easier to control at higher speeds. Just got to save up a bit for new diffs and the slipperential.

Actually we race a bit closer now. 249 and grants road.

I blew both diffs today and hit a curb at about 45mph. The car survived, the paint didn't.

Would be nice to have somebody else to race against with. You are the only A123 speed demon I know off around this area.
