I thought you were going on road. The off road principles are different. I am seriously thinking about a 1/8th buggy with street tires and brushless setup.

FD has a setup already for sale. 53.1 MPH on a 4S battery. Think what it would do on 5S. This is really catching my interest.


Mine:
2007 Grizzly 700 EPS EFI

Sons:
BL E-Maxx
4S MA 4000 Lipo/MM ESC
Feigao 9XL 22/54 gearing
Gmaxx single speed

Brushless Revo under construction

Yeah, I was going on-road, but I found it got a little old. There aren't any paved tracks that I know of around here and driving around by yourself isn't as fun as I thought it would be. It would be different if I had a 80+ mph vehicle, but the Jato aerodynamics are not meant for that level of speed.

After looking around a bit and asking some questions, I found there are pan cars that do have enough clearance to use in parking lots as long as the typical seams, cracks, and dirt aren't too bad.

No matter what, I like having the weight relatively centered in the truck.
