Deleted Nitro Parts when converting
Out of curiosity, I went through my 8ight parts manual and listed out all of the parts that get tossed when converting from nitro to electric. I also broke down the motor into it's individual pieces. There are close to 125 parts that are no longer needed and probably more that I didn't think about. Feel free to add to the list if I left anything out. The biggest thing I hear from nitro racers is that they like the sound, smoke and smell. All of that comes at the cost of many, many points of failure.

I'm sure sick of all those points of failure and having to clean my car so much. I can't wait for the MMM so I can finally finish my savage. Silly little things stuff you up with nitro like tonight I discovered a hole in my fuel line.
