Im already having sleepless nights worrying about making sure I've done all I can ( within reason ) to be sure everyone has a great time and wants to come back!

Funny you ask about fireworks. Ive always wanted to try using some of those fire crackers ? not sure the proper name for them but, they look like little sticks of dynamite with a fuse and they go bang. I figured might work great to simulate a blast of a bench in the open pit but we cant get them here in Canada anymore.
I was going to ask one of you guys to bring some up with you but I would hate to see any of you get in trouble at the border trying to smuggle contra band explosives into the country.

There is a fire works store just minutes from my place and im sure we can set a few off ( depending on if there's a fire ban on in August ) So I leave it up to you guys if you want to bring your own or just use what's available up here in Canada.

Is that your first 4:1 reduction? If so, you will probably end up with one in every truck, in my opinion one of the best things you can do to these trucks is slow them down. I also like a gear reduction better than a high turned motor and small pinion, seems like you get better control with the gear reduction unit.

I'm interested to see how the RC4WD GRU does for you and how you like it, hate to say it but I have heard they have a tendency to not last long and lock up. Good luck.
