I cant tell you how pissed I am about the new IMCO -4 drive set up. I bet I have called IMCO 5 times over the last 4-5 years asking them if they were ever going to do anything to "speed up" the SCX lower...and their answer every time was "nothing planned for the immediate future".

However, I guess since Lil R raised the drives like 4 feet that in essence we have a similar setup now as we would with the new -4. The new lower looks lots faster though. I dont know why I am surprised...why would anything on this boat EVER go my way.
Eric, I think you should give me a super-great deal on your SCX's and then you can buy the new -4 SCX's

Hey Eric

Glad to see a little progress for you! I check this thread every day with baited breath. If anyone deserves a fine, fast, attractive and (reasonably) RELIABLE boat you do!

Thanks Andy. And it was good to talk to you a few weeks ago. If this thing ever gets wet I plan on taking you up on hitting a poker run in TX!!
