ok, so i just took out for the first test drive and HOLY @#$!!

i think the smartdiffs do make a difference. great handling characteristics. but the thing is stupid fast. i wanted to run that new Losi plastic spur gear to see how it worked out and its super smooth and quiet but the largest plastic spur they make is a 45t. the spur is so small that i have to run a 16t clutchbell to reach the spur without hitting up against the center diff mount. so basically i am running a 16/45 gearing with 2200kv on 5s. i knew it would be way too fast for the track but i just wanted to see how it was. i will have to get some vid and put up. absolutely crazy. it is uncontrollably fast. but despite the speeds everything stayed cool. *130 all around(clutch, esc, motor, brakes) except the pack was *99.

@ big greg: the rear Fioroni chassis brace is from amainhobbies.com but i will be taking it off and using the stock composite brace most likely after what happened last night.
