At second look there is no real material to mount in due to the cutouts in the bottom plate.

I do like the cleanliness and simple design. I will hit Mike up and see what's up. This would be my 3rd rcm mount and I have to say that I have been quite impressed with his product. I especially liked his 808 mount with the 2 piece design.

I am scratching the changing of the flux motor. Still considering the XL conversion.

The MT is on the way and should be here tomarrow! I aksed him the question just to clarify that the Flux was NIB condition and came with all stuff that comes with stock...I said I only wondered b/c he said he was trying to locate a box. (FOR A WEEK.). He ignored me and gave me tracking saying it was on the way. He only lives like one state away. Anyway I will post a link to the listing now that I am confident the box is in route. I just dont like posting links until the transaction is complete.

Uh why?

The standard ones would have worked fine, although it probably helps to unglue them put some tape on the inside and reglue to keep down the ballooning that will happen (that applies to both sets). Both the Dirt Bonz and the GT2 tires that I tried on my RC8Te while waiting for some Badlands to come in both had serious ballooning issues and that was only on 4s.

The XL tire just has a larger sidewall and it is just going to balloon even more. Probably need to gear down a pinion tooth because of the larger size tires.
