Quick update to the build. I have sourced a large pinion and installed it. Initial gearing will be 32/54. Was trying to get a 35t pinion, but could not locate one in stock anywhere. I'm also beginning to layout the battery area. To keep things simple, I have a goal of retaining the main electronics ...

Right on. Where are you in metro Detroit? I'm over near Walled Lake / Novi.

Honestly, I'm not real sure on the ride height. Somewhere around 3/4" to 1" with a slight rake. I want it low, but I don't want it completely on the ground.

Here’s the Tekin T8 40mm motor installed

.89” buggy shocks with down stop limiters up front

1.02” front shocks mounted in the rear. CVD’s head nearly straight into the raised trans, Turnbuckles relocated to upper hole on shock tower

Raised Stealth transmission

Trans and DynoTech plate in stock position. 40mm motor will not fit

Hey everybody. Thought I would start a thread on my RC10GT Brushless conversion / speed runner project. I recently dusted off an old 10GT I have laying around and became interested in the brushless conversions I’m seeing on these. I have a loose goal of setting up a fairly well running 80mph rig. Fo...

Really liking this build. I've been out of this hobby for a while and just got my son a Slash for Xmas. This caused me to go dust off two of my old GT's. I'm working on a similar GT-E myself. My plan is kind of in the speed runner realm. I was thinking about seeing if I could get an 80 mph setup out...
