I bought another buggy, MBX-6 :-)

I have now upped to a 16t clutch-bell, perfect gearing for me. Temps are good, nothing over 100f except the motor at 120f. I have driven the car as much as I can, but my charger/batteries are acting up. I can only charge and not balance for some reason, and have ruined one battery and I'm not letting this happen again!

I have finally got some pictures of the finished car, it is dusty but thats how it is when I drive first and take pics later







IMO I did a good job on this car, and selected a very efficient and powerfull combination of electronics. I love the way it drives, and after changing changing to carbon clutch shoes and bending the springs a little the clutch works the way I like it too, and clutch temps are about 150f which is just fine.

I must say I will never drive my tekno cars without the clutch, because I like the overall feeling the clutch and mek. brakes give the car. I did however open up the springs a touch, so that the car takes off right away when I give full throttle

I hope others that see my cars will want to try to convert and set up a 1/8 buggy them selves. I am very happy with my buggy's.
