Johnny how were you running on 6s at palos? Is that to 3s packs in series or parallel? I'm trying to be sure I'm doing this right so I don't blow anything up.

Double the voltage if you run them in series, Double the capacity (mah) if you run the in parallel.

Be careful on the 6s.. I'm thinking that it would drastically reduce motor life. Johnny's motor is kind of designed around 6s. He's special.

The store! ;)

I think I bought one like it at Menards - I think my sister or brother-in-law stole it! Bitches.

I would have got that one but it wouldn't fit in my car...
Man, I really wanted the Forester XT when I found the WRX...

I need a truck or wagon.

Yea..the plastic/poly dolly looks good but, meh. I want steel incase I need to weld a motor mount to it

Edit: I'm not sure though. I might have to put myself in the penalty box for a bit. Pay that ticket, catch up a bit. Finish some started projects, figure out some side jobs.

Yea Jason!

Engineer it, find the right motor, figure out what batteries, esc/hand control, build battery box, find gears & chains, make chain gaurd, draw brackets, adapters, gear drives, etc. Thats just the start.

And, I'll machine the parts. The stuff listed above is what I dont feel like doing.
