The truck is much faster in the dirt than in the sand but we still managed a pretty good high speed run. The sand robs a lot of power but it was huge difference compared to my old 5.3. The truck is borderline scary in the dirt now, time to ditch the windshield and get some helmets. And it's a 3 seater, to the guy who asked above.

Running 05' Efans on switches and an 05' 32" radiator. Trans cooler is a Trucool, but is going to be swapped to some remote electric coolers when it's raced.
