Great work so far.

No AWD??

You... Do plan on going in straight lines correct? Can't wait to see this run, if otherwise.

Looks good so far. Are you going to use the plastic motor holder in the end? Id cut and drill a metal one, just to make **** well sure it's solid and meshing.

YES, AWD!! Seriously, a Mamba RWD is not very fun to drive. When you have that much power on tap you start wondering which grain of sand in the street is going to cause the tires to bobble just enough to flip the car on its lid at 60mph and send it skidding right into the boulevard. And then the light turns green.

Narrow down the chassis a bit mate, it's a bit nuts right now.

They are Hot Racing aluminum rims.
The foams look bigger as they are stretched over a bigger rim.

I am uploading a video of the gear meshing...not working just yet...

It's fine as it is.
It slips because of the foams on my desk, which is a rather flat, non-grip type surface.

See, I wanted to go for a world record, for the fastest xmod.
I took the stock bevel gears, so it would be a 1:1 gear ratio(24t-24t)

I think it will be very fast..this upcoming saturday I'm going to my LHS to have a friend of mine re-program the esc..
