    I've seen people go the other way, but never this way. All that said, 1/8 buggy way badder-assed than SC trucks IMO.

    BTW, I scored a NIB Radiopost RP3009M (red one) servo for $90.00 shipped over on RCTech.com. The specs are unreal, well over 300oz on 6.0 volt, over 400oz on 7.4 volts and silent operation :D

    Yeah he seemed cool enough. Super fast guy lol. His wife is also very nice. Most of these top level racers are pretty down to earth, but some think their shit don't stink. I've pitted next to a few guys and they got treated like everyone else lol.

    Finally got my win today with the buggy!

    Yeah I TQ'd at OCRC my first time there but I had to leave before the main :(. I've been in the top three at every track I've been to in the last month. I've improved a lot since I started hanging out with the guys at the track haha.
