Finally broke in Kanai 3 and Storm pro.

[RCatl]

i've finally got about 1/2 a gallon thru my kanai 3 and storm pro,
i love them both. my kanai has front and center torsen....which gives me a great feeling of control thru the turns...it really does give power to the wheel with traction. my pro has all three fioroni diffs, my 'not so local hobby shop' (rc-nation CA. i'm in GA)told me i may have too much traction in the rear, but i think its great...especially on the bank turns....i'm going to put the rear torsen in my kanai next week. I've got the VZB in my storm and the WS7II on my kanai...it's hard to tell them apart on a short track...its a huge step up from the B01 on my storm rtr...

here are some build pics i took awhile ago. ...will post more as soon as my camera batts. charge up....

thanks for all the help, and wealth of info on the board...

Anytime. Nice rides. My K3 is pretty much bone stock except for the braces (Ergal blues). Talk about a step up, try going from a Lightning RTR to a K3. Some day I'm going to try some Torsen diffs.

Those rides look just damn "Tuff" like they would beat our ass and take you lunch money or something.:devil:

Since I don't own one ...yet. Are all those aluminum stock or are they aftermarket? THey sure look like a lot of dough to. Looks like Fioroni Parts. Also what wieght are you using for the diffs?

Jon

O h yeah Very NIIIIICE!!

 

[Waste Land]

Arent those Torsen diffs like 250 bucks each.....if you dont mind me asking how much money do you have in both of those buggies combined.

 

[RCatl]

got my pro for around $450 for the kit, the kanai 3 for $650
6 torsen diff for around $200 each. option team chassis for kanai, airtronic servo w/heatsinks $130 each ko propo digital servos $130 each, 2050 os pipe around $100 rb pipe same...ws7II $300, vzb around $260, every fioroni part available for the mp7.5 about $700-$900, for the storm $400-$600, xs3 with extra receiver around $250......plus some other stuff I'm forgetting.....maybe close to $5000 plus tax total...i think that sounds about right.

I'm sure many of you can out drive me and my cars. but i am getting better ....made my first a-main with my storm last weekend...

I like the hobby but not that much. You seem to enjoy RC cars and credit card payments, lol.

I have respect for golfers because its harder then it looks but damn I'd rather chew tacs then play or watch it. Other than Putt Putt, I kick ass at Putt Putt

when it was still new..

That look soooooo good man. I'm serious. That car will beat up my storm, take away it's lunch money and his RC girlfriend. I wish my RC was a bully. Be on the look out. EP's K3 is a high school drop out with a handguna nd nothing to loose.
