Will be ordering one soon.

Thanks for the write-up.

Dez,
After a couple months of crawling, how is the performance now?

Well after several months of use, I have 3 CMRCRC 2.2 Comp wins, I won the 2.2 Mid West Challenge, and finished 2nd last week in the latest CMRCRC comp.

I might have won if my front diff hadn't failed on the bonus gate.

All in all, I'd say it's been pretty successful!

Dez,
Great news...just ordered mine. What are you running in the form of motors and pinions. I have two 45T Lathe and 9T pinion.

Thanks,
John

Thats going to be a little fast. I'd at least get a 55t w/ 8t. I have 60t w/ 9t. I think Dez is running 65t w/10t and 11t.

Are you running the same pinion on both axles?

I had the 45T Lathes...that is why I was going that direction. Maybe I will try them and see.

Just thought of something...I have two RC4WD GRUs. I will put those on with the 45T and 9T Pinion. That should get me where I need to be.

I personal wouldn't do it. It will just make your motors get hit more. Lathes are Cheap. Drop to a 7t Pinion add try that first.

R2J,
I see that the cane shipped today...Awesome.

Maybe I will just go with 55T Handwound and put the 45's up for sale...

Have you finished the PA license plates yet?

John
