Sorry for the late reply....

I want a 17mm for my SCTE because I have a SC8e and a 17mm covnerted Slash 4x4 too. I want to be able to interchange all of my wheels and tires between the three trucks.
I don't race but I do frequent an indoor and outdoor track. I don't race for ther same reason I don't race motocross. I don't want to spend that much of my day or night at track just to get a few minutes of driving in. But I do enjoy a nice groomed track (RC & motocross).

I have asked Tekno as well.
Tekno RC Option Parts For The Losi SCTE
Tekno RC 17mm Hub Adapters for M6 Driveshafts for the LOSI Ten-SCTE!!

Thanks for the response.

[kazuaki]

Matt,

I assume you were running the Bypass1 shocks? Can you post the exact shock piston setup you went with?

Nice stuff, Matt

[nitrokiller123]

Great Racing there!! very fun to watch that thing carve turns.

[ChrisAttebery]

Hey Matt,

The truck looked great. It's very tempting to hit the "buy" button. What diff oils are you running with the MIP package?

MINDBLOWN! That was great to watch. def would buy If I had the $$$

[superstangRC]

Very nice chassis set up.

[Sierravmax]

Cool chassis. Kind of reminds me of my SSC chassis on my slash 4x4. I like what you guys did with the center shafts. Looks like it will be alot less wear on the front shaft.

Our shock towers change the geometry of the car and the original rear springs on the losi isn't the correct rate we were looking for. The front springs from losi however work great in the rear thats the reason for us making fronts ourselves.

The kit is available through us but we are full retail, Horizon should have them by the end of the week and I'd imagine they'd be around 210 ... When you look at everything you get in the kit its quite relative.

[MIP MATT]

Hey guys just an update on racing with the MIP pro packed SCTE, the truck ran great all weekend at Jimmy Babcocks series race out at CCRC in Palmdale CA . I qualified 2nd overall just under TQ by .8 seconds. I ended up taking over the lead within the next couple laps after an epic battle with Kris Blaze and never looked back. I'll be posting my setup on miponline.com under the Team Icon. If you have any questions feel free to ask

[MIP MATT]

Also anyone looking for the MIP kit Stormer hobbies has them for 190

[kevink]

ok so I did it I ordered the kit so bad but felt so good lol. Anyway is anyone going to be at the hot rod hobbies shootout in a couple weeks so I can bug the shit out of them for setup help or am I on my own. also I have the revtech 4800 powing this new lightened setup. Can't wait for it. and ordered through stormer and with shipping was 207 out the door. Not bad for basically a whole new truck.

[J.Pietsch]

I put most of mine together last night. I really like the way it's going together, nice and smooth. The race I'm prepping for isn't until July 29th, so I have time and am not rushing, but I hope to do a shake down this weekend either at practice or club racing.

FYI, the white chassis is baller!
