Yea I know! It definatly would be good advertising for him @ this event. I have sent him a few emails about it and recieved no reply. I am pretty sure he was involved with the last emaxx that went to this isc event that placed second to the hpi wheelie king's 72 mph. I allready got both those trucks unofficially beat. I didnt even cut the high down force wing yet or use my more aerodynamic body yet. I planed on taking my 30' fifthwheel to the event as it would be a good back ground for a good size RCM banner.

As far as my trans I probably allready covered this but its a g1 single speed gorillamaxx tranny with a UE idler gear and stock plastic drive gear inside. I put a modified revo input shaft in it so I can run the smaller revo mod 1 spur gears that provide a taller gear ratio when combined to the limited pinion gear sizes availiable. I changed all the bearings out with ceramic avid bearings and shimed it perfect as I figured the added cost would be needed because its taking all the power. I was using a 25t hpi hardened gear but found the hot bodies gears on amain to be alot lighter & milled out and also go up to 26t mod 1. I am using a 42 tooth hot racing gear that seems to be working good as it is hardened also. My biggest issue right now is the slipper clucth need to be replaced with a slipper eliminator made by oomp from the traxxas forum.(still trying to get ahold of him and I hope he still makes them) I wish my neu motor had no fins though so I could have more adjustment but I might have to trim a few of them down a little. A nice mount off the front of the tranny would be nice to center the engine and allow more gear adjustment. But I dont have time to get into that right now because the event is two weeks away an I at least want to hit 80 before it comes.
