    Eibach height adjust shocks in front, KYB monomax shocks in the back. Stock springs front and back. Level 8 MK6 10mm offset wheels on Cooper ATP tires (stock size)
    Given the pictures i've seen of your section of the country... you should have invested in RC boats



    MJB may be sending me a 13.5, anyone good with gearing for a boosted 13.5?

    So I got a momba 2500 kv motor in it.
    Thing rips. I have to say it's not as fast as the stock motor with a 3cell. But has alot more torque ran a battery though it in the parking lot. And it hardly even got hot,

    So next I want to upgrade my controller. The stock traxxas one that came with it works fine. I just want something nicer.
    You guys recommended going with a 2500kv motor and I'm happy with it. So what ya recommend for a new remote?

    Haven't got around to taking any pics but im working on my short course, pretty much changing everything out but the diffs. Started with an RTR Losi TEN-SCTE. Upgraded it with a complete MIP kit, Tekin Pro4 and a Tekin RX8 esc combo. I also got the Proline Tundra body that Im going to have painted like Iron Man Stewards truck. somthing simple and old school. Also got a body that im going to try an Upgrades bodyskin on.
