Nice, just make sure you have cooling holes in the bodyshell. I'd open up:

To quote an annoying set of adverts: 'Every little helps...'
Things can really heat up on the track, if you've only given it a run in the street/park etc and haven't raced it yet, you'll find that the temperatures get much higher when racing. |

That's it really, 'see how it goes', no-one likes to drill a load of holes in a new shell. I'd still be tempted to open the front and rear of the shell a little for some cooling.

I'd guess it's a 36-60-2000 Medusa, so 2000kV.
Lambchops: Where did you get your batteries, ESC and motor? They look strangely familiar to me. As does the soldering job on the battery. |
