Oh yeah! Like that its not RTR too, I feel like I've accomplished something when running it. I'm really impressed on the quality of parts. The last associated I built was a FT TC3. This is a very well designed truck, however, I don't look forward to getting to the servo if I have too. :?

Oh yes! :wink: I'm extremely anal on diff and shock building :lol: Especially when it comes to a racer.
I'm pre-staging the electronics now. I purposely left out the rx box, as it's SUPPOSED to go in the large opening to the left on the same side as the motor. The ESC is SUPPOSED to go under the belt :?

I don't really want to dremel the fan shroud on an RX8, so I'm thinking the 2 will switch places. If I use the rx box, I will dremel the tabs off, and use heavy duty double stick tape to secure it inside the chassis. Alot of people on RCTech are dremeling, but I believe I can do without all that. :)
