Does anyone have a leading edge lightning with the gtb brushless speedo mounted on the left side back by the rear tire? If so can you post a pic so I can see how you mount it. I had it mounted between batteries and t-plate but i need the weight more on the left rear side. I tried to put it there but I cant get it to fit without hitting the battery or to close to the tire and I dont wanna move the battery forward to make it fit. Thanks in advance. Kevin

I don't think you can get it back there with the battery in the rearward position.

I run with the battery forward, and it fits easily.

Kevin, I took thin sheet-metal and made a L bracket out of it to stand it straight up. I'll try and get a pic on here later.

hey legend boy

i've been leaving you alone after you got in my way on the track at Summitt

and we had that talk ...............

I'm very happy to call Hofer my teammate and i'm sure there are alot of other guys who do to.
I don't mean this thing oh i race those batteries and so does that other guy so where teammates.......helping eachther out on and off the track and most importantly
it's dedication
to your chassis sponsor
your battery sponsor
your tire sponsor
to whatever sponsor you have .....
and if you don't have a sponsor then it's keeping your mouth shut when you need to keep it shut... beacuse they are looking.


last thing Legend boy since you have me on a roll

before you say anything about what i said to you on the drivers stand
I'm very competitive, but i know when to have fun.......

and what i said only you and my hero could hear
and i would think after the 3rd time you hitting me
and me lapping you for the 20th time you would move over.......

U had no need to get all worked up....

ya didn't get it did ya ...............

let me try again


if your not involved in a topic then stay out !!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't read where anyone asked for your opinion


"had nuffin to do with the other stuff"
ya it still does....
because nothing worse than racing with people who don't know what qualifing is all about.

I don't know legend, but there are some people who just can't figure out qualifying, they want to race even if they are laps down.

Krisfo
03-14-2007, 10:13 PM
Same goes for you Jason now that you think about it..........

Nuff said......
