My temp have gotten up there a few times driving like a mad man but they stay in check when I drive it like I'm supposed to. Remember, a course is only 5min or less! I did buy some 10T pullers to try out as well but I've been happy with the 500's that I haven't changed them..... | |

It is not new for me, I did a how to in the tools forum back in 2007 to try a spark some interest but never saw anything on RCC. It got nicknamed the shoe because it looked like Kobe's new CF looking basketball shoes. Composite Chassis Mike | |

Wheel speed with these motors is 490rpm. Here are some pics of the battery and radio tray. Last edited by Mike Poulson; 09-13-2009 at 09:05 PM. | |

Good lord, that is bad ass. It's not vacuum formed either, right? I don't see any bubbles.

Chassis and skid are hand laid, the battery box was vacuum bagged due to all the sharp corners. | ||

Yes it's fast, 350 is a good fast wheel speed, at 490 I have to be careful I don't hit anything. Mike |

I like that alot. I would like one for mine, but I moved the rear shocks out about a 1/2" at the top & abuot 3/8" out on the axle. So it wouldn't work on mine. That is pretty cool thoe. |

| Run Time and Heat
Well what is the run time and are there heat issues with the motors. Do you think the 22 turns would work and two FXR's??? LMK
