I ordered a Slash tonight from the states, (none in Australia at the moment) I'm very excited to get it as I have alot of flat kinda dirt around here, they look so much fun. Actually wish there was still local clubs, as they look like a blast to race :)

okay....so I finally got to run again (at a track). I took an older B&R 550 monster truck motor, removed the 19T arm and dropped in the Traxxas Titan 12T arm. Set the timing at about 15 degrees, after cleaning up the com a bit. That arm is ballistic. The stock can is what holds these motors back from being excellent performers. I could pull any stock can Slash down the straight (about 60 use-able feet) by a few car lengths, and easily double a section that only 4wd mod was making. Of course the other drivers were screaming bloody murder, but hey, I did sign up for Mod Slash, they put me into the spec class, and I WAS running a stock armature....

Finished second overall, behind Greg Hodapp, that guy can drive the wheels off anything.

Carloco, if you read this, nice to meet you finally!! A little tuning and your cars will be tops.
