what Turn of BL motor are you planning on using? Just curious is all. I was planning on 1s, 13.5 BL with boost. There are a few racers trying to get a WGT class going at my LHS. They have 3-5 people running now and I hope to make it +1 more. I want to use my old 10L SS since it seems like a cheap w...

The ones in plastic bags should be fine, especially if the bags are sealed. The others? Depends on how old and dried out they are. You should use traction compound anyway. Of course, they'll still won't be as good as modern high-grip tires... Thanks for the info. I don't plan to use the old tires f...

Thanks, I will check out Ebay to see what I can find. I was reminded by another old timer [presumably] that the left pod bulkhead, which is a substantial piece of plastic, could be lightened a great deal, without weakening the bulkhead, by cutting out the very area that I need to remove to allow the...

I borrowed a brushless motor from a friend and I can get it to fit into the pod, without removing any part of the pod, when the sensor wire is not connected. Since the 10L SS has a thick, solid plastic part on the side opposite the motor mount, I can probably make a hole in it for the sensor wire wi...

I just got back into RC after about 20 years away. I have a a graphite 10L SS [about 200mm] from way back that I would like to use to try out WGT at the LHS. If I like it, I'll buy a modern technology car. If not, I am not out too much time or money. The 10LSS pod seems to be too small for a BL moto...
