Default RE: Official Losi 26cc 5IVE-T Thread

Congrats man, Now the real fun starts, hopping that baby up is a blast, tough on the wallet but a blast anyway, I'm working with Dave from Buku Power Products to re shoe worn out clutch shoes with his Komposite material. I've been testing for him for a year now and I've got 2 big block nitro's in a Revo and a Savage XL, an LRP .30 and a Picco .28 and I'm going for 6 gallons on the same set of shoes in both trucks, same bearing too. This stuff is unreal, the difference is the small shoes are made of brass and it conducts heat better than the steel we have in the big guys. Never the less this material is as close to bullet proof as you can get, he's worried it's going to bog down stock motors due to the amount of grab this stuff has. I'm hoping the proto gets here tomorrow to start testing. Here is a pic of the first shoe. Keep you posted, man this is going to be a game changer, I"m sick of burning up clutches way to fast.
