Interesting
But I'm already Hearing the tranny crunching
In my opinion the 6 gear won't handle
The torque You are going to dish out
With that combo
But than again
I'm just a lonely model with a rc10

I ran two sets of packs in it today, the trans is noise so far due to all the metal gears . I haven't taken it apart yet to reinspect but i will after a few more packs. In did however snap two dog bones , but they where OEM and in replaced them with new b3 b4 bones.breaking stuff for me is half the fun. Setting the discs up was interesting trying to get the right amount of slip so it would not lock until heat built up. For speed runs I can see it as a huge benefit , track racing, not so much. Can't wait to test out my other trans. 1 is just a stocker type stealth the other is a modified 104x4 . the 4x4 I am just waiting for my cases to arrive so I can build a mount.

Guess who scored the last Rogue Element Components aluminum trans case... This guy!

So you're putting in a Stealth?

What? I thought I was, He must say that to all the pretty rc10 enthusiasts. What a line

yeah I got an email yesterday morning saying he had one unpaid for case left, so I snatched it up. Either way if it wasn't the last one I'm still glad i was able to get one.
I probably have enough parts now to build 3 rc10's now. If I don'use the stealth on this car I will for another build. I'm still wanting to try out my other options and ideas. So far the modified 6 gear is holding up with no signs of visible wear. I did try a stock spur, and it lasted one pull of the throttle. After all the stuff I bought, I should have just bought an empty chassis and build that instead!
