    Looks like a blue Feigao in there and a Castle esc. I think I see a brake too, one thing the traxxas doesn't have. I was thinking maybe a parachute on CH3.




    That is right, but I only put the body on to take a few pictures and didn't have time to do any adjustment. I need to relocate the receiver somewhere else. I got it from Fine Design and I always thought it was their Blue Nemesis BL motor, so now i know what it is. The brake is not being used. There is a little spring in the front axel on the kingpin, that is the only damping feature on this car.
    This was the pre-2.4 Ghz days as you can see i had a Lexan piece which I rolled the AM antenna on.

          No time to do that yet, I am in Orange County, have 4 concerts this week end.
          I am unaware of anything in that area. But the weekend after there is a SAW event at Legg Lake. Wish we can meet up. I need to check my schedule and PM you.

            It'd be cool to finally meet ya. The only boats I could bring out would be a stiletto. I've just about sold everything else, and the cheetah has the esc out getting worked on. I have your old wraith, that's now a full customs rock crawler, and a cpe carbon fibre wraith based monster truck I just built, that I could bring out if you know any good spots. I'll be at Disney land with the family so that's close enough to Orange County. Hit me up on my email and I'll send over my phone number, thanks Tim!!

              Wow, are you down sizing your fleet? Don't sell that Stiletto! ( I never sell anything )
              Shot you an email, will talk......

                    Tim, it was great meeting you. Thanks for coming out to Disney to meet me, we got home late last night.
                    Chris I ended up picking one up off Rc universe, but I really wanted a John force car. Are you open to any trades, I have a nice stiletto if you'd like to work something out.

                            That's awesome, after driving mine. I'm ready to race someone, I need to check to see if there are any local races.
