To keep the lipo from sliding sideways I have two lead weights (one at the back and one at the front) glued in place and it hasn't moved at all. This way if the lipo's don't become legal then you can convert back with little hassle and more importantly, little money.

The Novak speedo fits no problem and regards the cost, the CAT is very good value for money when you consider what you get in the box and the car is awesome to drive.

please post photos.. I beleive the new LRP lipos with "look-a-like" cells downside will fit into NIMH chassis, (maybe with removing one or two taps on battery case)
