Ah....yes 4ws rules! :-P

Never thought of a regulator, just figured 6v rx pack is pref. But maybe I'll look in to it. Ihave a 3-cell li-po that's great w/ the BL, w/ a v. reg. I could drop the rx pack & lose some weight Even w/ the 6-cell it would be lighter.......DUH..........OK off to get a v. reg. LOL

Lot's of riding today. Still didn't do the big triple, maybe next week.
It's hard to type w/ arm pump........damn this sucks

hmmm, i am running into problems of my own getting these chassis plates designed. I got some aluminum but not quite enough it seems like. i have some 1/8 inch marine alloy aluminum and two trinagles of 3/16 inch marine alloy aluminum.
you guys should check out the racks they are pretty sick.
http://www.titantruckracks.com/
the guy does all of these racks in his shop just a 25 minute bike ride from my house. its amazing because he does it all out of a wheelchair.
my problem is that the motor hangs out so much that i cant really make side plates that are tall enough and still have enough material around the motor cut out.

what did you use to cut yours out?
thanks
harris
