After 7-8 months of convincing my dad, finally went down to ThrottleRC and picked up a Slash 4x4    
CRAZY HAPPY!!    

Jayanth was an awesome guy to deal with! Thanks Jayanth  
Thanks Gandhar for helping me with the decision!  

Pics and vids to follow!

AWESOME!!!!!!!

You won't be disappointed dude.If you need any help,feel free to call or message me.

We are so going to race dude.

Also, I got a 2s LiPo (The Tritech one)  
Probably be at the track tommorow

And, I couldn't get the High Quality photos straight onto RCIndia, so I just uploaded them on Photobucket..

When's your next exam? I MAY come to the track tommorow!

Damn!!!You're already lipo-ed

Wait till the 30th

My last one(the one that matters the most ) is on the 13th.

Nice co-incidence.We got the same edition.

Yeah!
Waiting for Jayanth to get the LiPo connector changed to the Traxxas one!

Charging the stock one now! God it takes Forever! 

Hey congrats man

I have 2 sets waiting.Got them with my tools

Didn't you guys open it up at Jayanth's place?

8 hours to be precise. It will get over at an odd time.Set an alarm.I have seen the charger 'false peaking' many times.

A word of advice,use the training mode.

What charger will you be using?

Hey congrats man   if you are at the track hope to meet you tomorrow. I'll be there by 8

hey. congratulations on your slash divyam. take some vids if u can

and yep the stock batts take a long time on the stock charger.

anyway congratulations again and enjoy at the track.

wish i stayed in bangalore too.

Congrats,
I thought you were going for the 2350...what happened..??
Either ways, nice choice

BTW gandhar, you'v got a nice companion to race with, join him dude

yup....I surely will

First throw the stock charger and get a decent one which accepts all batteries. GT Power chargers is a decent one available locally. Enjoy the Slash.

Thanks for all the compliments, guys  

For the moment, I will be using a basic 2s-3s charger.. Will surely upgrade in the near future..

Gandhar, We HAVE to race!    ASAP!

I thought of getting the 2350, but getting such a big box cleared from customs will take LOTS of time and money.. In addition, I need another 2 batteries.. All adds to the cost.. So, decided to go Slash 4x4!

Thanks Ajit.. I'll definitely take pics.. Vids if possible too!

Shashank, still not sure weather I'm coming.. But, if I am, surely meet you there!  

I'v heard a lot negative about the alphastar that its made of cheap magnets that tends to get hot easily to reduce the price, plus you can go only 4s on it. and yeah batteries and charger would have been additional 5k atleast, good choice

And, now that we have enough Slashes, we can start a SC categoy in all major races, hopefully!
Not sure I can hit the track tomorrow.. Maybe next week, Shashank?

Divyam,the RCINC already has a SC class.I'm pretty sure we can have sc races at pitstop as well.Jayanth is speaking to the guys at pitstop.There is a good chance I can come next week.But If we race,we race on NiMHs or I should get a lipo from someone else.

Err.. not too sure about next week. Got CA exams in about 2 weeks. Will keep you posted  

Best of luck for your exams! 
Sure we can race on NiMH's!

Ran the car for the 1st time today around the complex! TOTALLY AWESOME!!
Can't wait to drive it again!

@Shashank:all the best man

We'll see if we can meet up on the 17th then.I'll have 4 days to re-condition my pack.

Sure!
But, I'm most probably gonna lose! Still getting used to the Brushless powaH! Its crazy!
