it has to be said that old school cells & brushed motors look pretty cool.

this all brings back great memories of wind up chargers, pro peak single button chargers, comm cleaning sticks, comm drops, cells coming off too hot to touch after a heat, trying to solder corally connectors to saddle packs, and barely moving the car before the start of the heat in case it dumped.

oh, and best of all, being in the lead during a heat or final with 30 seconds to go, and the awful feeling of slowing steering before the car would start going round in circles.

good times
