Castle brushless Baja 5t on Pavement
 
here is a quick video of some footage today from me bashing around in front of my house. Shows how powerful the baja conversion kit is. top speed isnt too bad eather. 54.4mph with stock 14t pinion verified by onboard GPS. This thing is very quick compared to my 30.5cc mod motor at my altitude in Scottsbluff, NE.

Anyway...Don't hesitate to give the Castle Creations Baja Conversion kit a try. It rips...wheelies anytime with great top speed. I would not want it much faster...for now!!!! haha.

Haha...actually those are Proline Trenchers that are about 10 runs old. There is about 1/2 tread left to my amazement. I plan to let them wear down to slicks and use them like that!

Ya, lots of fun...and nice and quiet for my neighborhood. it was a great solution for me to convert my baja since I moved to a quiet street.

Thanks!

I just heard Hostile is coming out with baja 5t or SC slicks. I will for sure invest in a full set of those....Love bashing on the street....so much traction. And the Castle kit (after a few bugs were worked out) seems to be doing great now. So glad I converted...Now I can enjoy my 5t in front of my house again. I pissed too many neighbors off with my gas engines.

Thats awesome that people are still interested in these kits. I decided tonight after much debate to just go ahead and finish ordering the conversion kit. I'd been undecided on this as a lot of my stock has not sold in a while. The conversion kit is all I need to finish a build that I was working on. I;ve got all the other parts required. I've got a caster F8T 2200kv 6s truggy to sell off thats been a demo vehicle.

Now we just need a 4wd conversion.
