Hi John,
Using a 3S lipo 11 V +/- 5500mAh
But as I showed I am using a Leopard LBH3660/8T Brushless -3600kV-
Between motor and the old version Tamiya 3speed gearbox from the Bruiser I have this semi automatic transmission from Traxxas, It's more of a clutch system. But it works perfect ! (TWO SPEED W/Reverse Auto Transmission TC3 Traxxas E-max)
As a ESC I am using a 150 A with a BEC of 6V 6A
Tyres are from RC4WD : Crazy Crawlers 2.2
You can still find them in different stores or on ebay
I did cut the foam a little bit and put weights in the rims.
Furthermore a used these shocks from RC4WD Spark Comp Shock with Ti Shaft (110mm)
They make the suspension a whole lot better !
The originals are to short and to stiff.
Then I changed the punisher shafts, I am using the ones from Gmade.
Finally I changed the XVD's from the front axle.
Broke one (!!??) after my first run, but furthermore these XVD's are stronger and they allow more steering.

Mike
