looks awesome dude.....

[waterbok 1282]

Tested it with two identical chassis, 2 sec difference on 20meter track (full track time 11sec). Fully charged eneloops. after swap otherway around. So one factor is batteries not just the tuning. My tuned egress (ballbearings, alloy rollers, weights) did 6.8sec with black eneloops. 

Think its nice fun thinkering to get more out of a car.
