Thought I'd give a little update as to where the beast is at, since everyone is updating at the moment I didn't want to be left out

I was having a few issues trying to get the temps down to a resonable area that I was happy with after 10-15 mins at the track. Well I reduced the timing to 0 (thanks to the guys that gave me the heads up on that one) and played with the throttle curve so she doesn't gas it at the start, this dropped the temps by 20 degrees F straight away..........NICE Happy with that.

I went a little further and cut a big hole in the windscreen and added a piece of lexan with cloth tape, so the airflow can now be directed to motor and ESC, I know it's a bit rough looking but the results out-do the design and it only added 10 grams I couldn't get over 120 if I tried at the track and after 10 or so WOT passes at the park, at least 80 meters each, hit 130 tops............I am Very happy with that and I haven't even changed the centre diff fluid yet

Here's a pic of my masterpiece

One word........."WOW" is all I can say about RC-Monster and the purchase I made I purchased the motor mount on Wednesday last week and it turned up on my doorstep today, less than a week from the day it was sent. That is outstanding, most of my international purchases take at least 10 days so I was extremely impressed to get the mount this quick. A big thank you to Mike that is for sure

Here it is, not going to be in that wrapping for too long

In between bits and pieces I managed to get the mount in, very nice and a great fit I kept the bottom Losi mount as it blocked the holes in the chassis where the spur and flywheel went (on the nitro side), just had to do a bit of Dremeling for the perfect fit. I also put 30k in the center to see if I can get the temps down some more and to see if I can have less unloading of the front (which is a given) without the wheelies. I think I will get some 15k and 20k to try aswell.
