I am not too enthusiastic about this feature. I wonder what the CF would look like after a few races..

Does this mean that the skids are directly connected to the chassis?

Nice to meet you!

Yeah, that's the spirit!!!
I'll do some research, so far i only came accross an organized race for 1/5th scales.. One of their members/organizers is rather enthusiastic about brushless cars! (understatement) and wants one too.
I think it's possible (according to him) to go there the day before the 1/5th races and use the track..
Another event here is on a BMX track, not really my bag though.. from my understandings the track uses 1-2cm diameter large rocks.. It's dangerous without wearing protective clothes.. More of a bash than a race.. And i bet if we explore the pit we visitied last year, there will be plenty of room to bash..

Holy Crap those price are ridiculously high!!!
They added $100+ to the cost of the G2 chassis and the only differenc I can see is thicker plates and it comes with the extended chassis option.
The single motor mount is cool wiht the ability to lower the motor 15 degrees.... But $39 for a single plate. Thats just stupid.
I for one wont be upgrading anytime soon at those prices.
I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Actually, that price isn't that high...Come on guys...The extra $100 for for the skidplates, dogbones, extended, thicker chassis, and updated x-braces isn't that bad...

I signed in to say that too..
that's not a normal price for a flat piece of aluminum..
Not to worry, the singlespeed became 74 bucks too.
The most revolutionary parts are the arms. The setscrews are a nice add-on

Does the extended center CV's work with the G3 chassis? Also, the 1" extension, i guess my new rear Gorilla skid is useless?
They still didn't change the braces though, which are in need of being beefed up!

Pretty looking G3.3 arms too :027:
Prob not a basher arm though, i'm sure you can design it just as light and make it have more strength than those...
Well, I don't think i can fit my 2x 5s1p packs on there (a123's), as the motor mount is int he way... i could just get a custom one machined

This was not worth waiting for. Who closes a website for that long to come up with products that are only slightly different from the ones they had? Can't say that the new layout is an improvement either.
Off-topic:
Aren't there any G2R kits around in the stores? Are people waiting for the
G3R? I know Louis at www.ballistichobbies.com had a the G2R in stock a few days ago.
