I got all bit and pieces but the motor...
If anybody knows a place with Neu 1512 or Lehner 1940 in stock, please let me know.    Can wait to finish it and RUN it :-))

I was looking at the RC Product Designs 1/8 conversions earlier today. The fit and finish looks good in your pictures, what's it like in the flesh?
A video or two of it in action would be cool once you get hold of a motor, plus some feedback on what it's like to drive. Your pics have certainly whetted my appetite further  Nice bodyshell btw

Concerns I have: - shaft length as central diff is higher, that can be fixed by Mugen shafts - MaxAmps 4S6000mAh touches the body so I bought a longer and lower Thunder Power 4S5000mAh Quote:
 Believe me I can't wait to be able to give some feedback! My Neu motor is ordered for more than 2 months  Quote:

Nicolas,
Have you managed to source a motor yet? If so, more pics please

Waiting for the Neu was too much of a torture so I ordered a Lehner 1940/5 HiAmps. Got it last Wednesday, ran it yesterday for the first time. As weather is not that good I've run it on tarmac. Man, it's flying! Will do a video when a friend comes to see it.
Updated picture with motor and temp sensor (plus a few hop-ups and some dirt).

 RC Product designs also provides a kit for RC8 if you want to convert. I have to say I am pleased with it

If weather is ok I'll bring it to the track (http://brtc.eu.com/) on Wednesday . Maybe I can put my camcorder somewhere on the side to tape it.

Ok, I've been too optimistic on this one, RC8 kit is not yet there. Never hurt sending a mail to Dan to push it a bit though ;-)
I've taped a short movie this morning, still on concrete. Not very good movie as I had nobody to hold the camera. It lies on the ground as you'll see... Gives an idea though. http://sylvestre.net/rc/8ight test.wmv

Certainly looks pretty rapid.
I like the wipe out of your camera early on  Did you cut the video short of doing the same again at the end?!

Just made my first race with Nitros. Was my first since +10 years...
Qualification heats were 5 minutes, finals 15. I got no issue to run that long with the 5000 mAh packs. No overheating, no issue at all, went pretty smooth! If you're interested to convert a car, be aware that Castle is about to release a specific ESC. It'll be main street pretty soon .
