Just a few laps on concrete so far.

Holmes Motor has plenty of power. Turning radius is awesome with the rear steer.

I'd like a weighing in on this big b!tch. I hopefully will start my. HEMMT soon and want a comparison if we ever get a tug of war going!

Epic build top 3 on this site so far!

32lbs as it sits now. The Holmes sensored outrunner has plenty of power to move this rig around.

The rear headache/tire rack doubles as a handle. I took it all the way to PA a few weeks ago.

It would probably have two Holmes Hobbies sensored outrunners on 6s and would weigh 64lbs.

This is so cool. How does the styrene hold up if the truck rolls over?

I prefer not to talk about these "rollovers". Truck is 32lbs, whadad you think?

Was that a one-off motor that Holmes made for this rig or an off-the-self motor? The rig has impressive acceleration!

A small run of production motors. It's a torque monster. I believe there will be updated versions out in the future.
