Looks very nice, the brass rear brace as well, what does it weigh extra compared to the standard carbon fibre pieces?

Thomas P 27-04-2009 03:29 PM

I think it was 29 + the little pice (maye 20 so say MAX 50gr) vs app a few grams only for the CF parts..

Thomas P 27-04-2009 06:04 PM

Looks very nice, but how will you prevent the battery packs from sliding to the back of the car? I know you have a Li-Po tray, but normally lead is used which will raise your battery pack over the tray height.

Thomas P 03-05-2009 05:07 PM

I wont run my S2 with any Led. the only Extra i use is the brass reartoe block. Im no fan of extra weight, and i think with some laboration with the setup i will find a descent one for my car. I am against Led cant stand the thought of it :D... (i have been running my erlier S2 with only 5 cells) and that aint such a big diffrence between 5 cells and the Lipo packs im using)

Thanks ROssi for the comments, a ic when the ESC and motor is installed will be up asap the arrives to me..

V-Rossi 03-05-2009 06:57 PM

I like to run it with some extra weight, depending on the track. I always use at least 100gr of lead under the Trakpower packs, but on some tracks 200gr is just awesome.

Thomas P 04-05-2009 03:49 AM

Yes i know, mostley led is used Rossi, but i think anyway i will run it without. But who knows maybe i have to rethink :D (but i do not think so) ;)

Thomas P 06-05-2009 04:11 AM

Missing the Front shockmount bushings and will buy some extrea .6 shockshafts..the one in place is now AE .71...
