I agree with you 100%, you definitely need to race it.... and then retire it with a trophy next to it...

Her is #3 of3. Same Jrx-2 chassis as last year with new electronics, tires and body.
Novak GTB with 17.5 motor.
SMC 3200 lipo
Spektrum rx and z-590 servo.
proline ribbed fronts and holeshot rears on AE b-4 wheelsf/r
That's a lot of wires in a small space, I'm not used to this brushless stuff yet.
This one will be along for the ride to see if we can turn some laps on the oval
The chassis is actually drilled for the 5-link setup but I simplified it with rpm rear arms. I think the shock towers are JG.

Hey Anthony,
It's not 100 percent, but I think RCHR is going to get rid of the Oval, they're taking a vote right now among the Local racers. They're also taking Layout suggestions that is VONATs friendly, so we'll have a new layout soon.

If you guys are going to change things up, do it soon so the track can get good and packed in!! I only have holeshots

I hope you guys still have the dirt oval, I'm bringing the rc10DSworlds for some donuts on the oval

I just got back from RCHR and raced the XX with Inside Jobs and JC Groovies, and it was hooking up perfect, I just need to dial some things up and it should be ready to take on the VONATs.
The 17.5 with the right gearing and battery, it's really a beast.

Tamiya P/N's 53880 & 53881 for the wheels. Hex adapters too to make these work: 53056
