Nice to here about you and your "precious"
I'm glad to hear that, even as I am a bit gelous :P Last night while watching Forrest Gump, I've installed the shocks. Again,I have to say that they are surprisingly good!
Regarding to the EZrun 9T... I still can't decide about to buy it or not. On hobbyking they write nice reviews about it. For shure I will start running the Mad Rat with the BL sistem I'll take out of the Torche Pro. I've heard that it would be a 3300kv motor.
