|  building a u4 track in lake Elmo
Well, finally got my Yeti in hand. And 1st impressions are pretty high. VP hubs are already on.  and the stock servo truly blows... Already have to new one in the box ready to go. Plastic links... Well, they blow, as do the stock tires (non r32) compound. They will have to go as soon as possible. It is also a hell of a lot of fun on 3cell.... But I feel it may forever run on a two cell. (I will break less!) |

Those look like the exact same ones that come with the Wraith Poison Spyder, and they are hard, but going to try and crawl with them tomorrow at Taylors Falls.

I told Mike to take some but I'm not sure he did. It's more fun to just watch a flamethrower than to worry about taking pics of it!

We are just kinda making it up as we go. It's only part made up. The idea is to have multiple configurations and change up the track as conditions change.
