Winning is simple...

2. You need to make a post in this thread explaining what you would do with this prize.
3. You need to cross your fingers and check back often!

wow, another great prize!

how cool would it be to convert an 1/8th scale gas onroad to electric?
i saw one of these the other day and OMG was it fast.. and of course i fell in love and want one!

so that is exactly what i would do with it..
i would use it to power an 1/8th scale onroad conversion..

that would be sweet..

Good Luck with the new launch.

Should my number be selected for the MMM, it would find a home in one of my Associated SC8 electric conversions.

I've been racing 1/10th scale since I was a kid and my local track has a very small following of 1/10th scale racers. I've been thinking about trying to get an 1/8th scale brushless class started and this would be the perfect reason to. There is also no one running brushless at this track since most people run 1/8 scale buggies or truggies, so this would give me the opportunity to put my new Lipos to the test and prove to all the naysayers that an 1/8 scale buggy can compete with the gas guys on the performance level and fun factor.

What a great prize!!!
I would definitely convert my losi 8B as no-one runs electric at our track and I would love to see the look on there respective faces as I blast past them at half throttle, while they are still trying to get the perfect tune!!!
Clean, green, flying machine.
Just the project I have been considering for a while....

Ok,
So this think is like 120A continuious!
It would be a perfect power plant for a version I'm building of this:
The Altered M800.
http://www.alteredelectricskateboards.com/m6_800.htm

How better to get to work then on a Mamba powered mountainboard!
Powerboarding in the Fall - electric skateboard (2 min 20 sec)


Then, I'm hooking myself up to a solar panel helmet and my old TRON outfit for "visual safety"....
(my wife propmtly told me she'd leave me at that point) I'd beter stop there....
