I only have 1 lipo (with deans) 4 6-cell Nimh (2 3800mah and 2 5000mah) and a 7 cell Nimh. all the nimh batts have the Tamiya connecters.

So until I get more lips, no deans will be soldered on my SCX...

Talking Re: Vasquez Rocks (AGAIN!! WOO HOO!!) I'm going, you don't have to.. May 4th

Got the rig back up and running!!! Did a test run down the Venice boardwalk. Working like a CHAMP! Got the front bumper mounted correctly, and the body trimmed down to match. Front rack is mounted, waiting for the rear rack to show, should be here today, or tomorrow.

BUT IM BACK UP AND RUNNING EITHER WAY!! WOOO HOOOO!!!!

Anyone have a set of Dingo fender flares they aren't using?

Yeah, parts parts and MORE PARTS!!!! always something to buy, then break.. Then buy the better version of.. I'm clicks away from picking up 100mm shocks, and ordering one of those lower/raise suspension kits. The ones where you can set the pitch of the shock if you wanted to. Then I'll run the suspension in "SUPER DROOP" mode. The CG should stay low, but I'll have the flex I want. Anyone know of any good axle weights? I was just going to get the stick on wheel weights from a tire shop.

What are your guy's thoughts on tinted windows on RC's?

I have some tint spray, and have been thinking about tinting all the windows, and getting some plastic fenders for the wheel wells, and painting them black.

Yup then tape over so they don't move... Make shure they are lead so you can cut and get maximum fill (all the way across rim)
