If you are running in regular competition, you'll most likely need a different setup than a drag car, i.e. tires, gearing, maybe motor...

^^Really^^ ?
Yeah I know, I'd have to drop down to a 4s and regear and of course proper sneakers. It's just an idea for now.
They talking about a having a 2wd Slash class with foam tires and Late model bodys hence the trial fitment for giggles. I'd rather not buy another RC so I think I'll pull the front diff from one of my 2-4WD Slashes which is in the pic and run it ? I clicked off several 60mph+ passes with a stock body befor "flight", I bet with this D-O body I could exceed it easily ?

The body is friggin' HUGE

[nitrostarter]

That would be a sweet class! Looks like a killer fit as well!

From talking with the coordinaters, The requirements to meet are;
2wd Slash
Foam tires
Dirt oval body
I'm gonna stick with the same set up 1509 2Y and 3s

I'll need to rig up a giant foam bumper to keep from destroying the front of the body.

Update;
STILL WAITING FOR MY FREAKIN" CAR ??


How about you Cory, did you get your GTP ?

[nitrostarter]

I finally got pictures of the package ready to be shipped and got a tracking number. Of course the @$$ opted for regular parcel service so it won't be here til the end of next week...

[Bondonutz]

On big stuff like that Parcel and Priority is about the same price ? Some will never learn I guess. At least it's on it's way, glad to hear !

[nitrostarter]

thats what i don't understand! it just pisses me off that it took 3 weeks to ship something supposedly shipped on june 13th....

[nitrostarter]

Well my GTP has FINALLY arrived. I'm kinda disgusted with it and don't really want to try an make it go Fast anymore. But since I have everything, I may as well give it a run or 2. May change my mind.

That's exactly what's happening to me right now with the Mugen MRX-4X brushless on roader, nitrostarter. I no longer feel interested in running it, eventhough it's %90 ready to go.

Rene, I'm sorry.......

[Bondonutz]

Sorry to hear Cory.

I gave up as well, I decided to get a TC5 instead because oval racing is starting here this month. If I get a need for speed it'll do double duty nicely with a 3s slapped in it. I've even read where a couple guys have run a Castle 2650 and 4s in these little chassis and they were clicking of 95mph passes at half throttle ? Sounds like fun....

I was going to set one up since MiamizFinest did one, but they are just too low to the ground for where we run at. They accelerate hard as heck though with a 2650 on 6s

I'm doing something similar

I pick up the roller from rchippie about a month ago, just waiting for some custom gears. Will replace the 1518 with a 2650 later.

[Bondonutz]

That looks just wrong, but I like it ! Very sick indeed.

[snellemin]

New body my buddy painted for the GTP.

[Bondonutz]

Snell, That looks TITS !
Just a few colors and making them work and blend nicely together, very nice my friend.
Tell your friend top notch !
