Some one help me. I'm awake at almost tomorrow, and my typing is slowing going down and down.

This bill seems pointless. Any sane retailer would only stock games that had a ESRB rating, and no sane console maker would dare let an unrated game on a retail disc, and most retailers already wont sell unrated games to anyone under 18, and in that case the parents buy the game for them anyway.

Looks like Chevy trying to clone the new Viper.
And before any tells me otherwise, I know the Vett is older.

I officially hate you now, for the ridiculous building conditions.

Price of components are more than listed price, and those ESCs are no longer sold.

(Image removed from quote.)

done and comically underweight at 2lb 6oz

Make a heavier disc. Or would that affect the spin-up time too much?
Spin-up is going to suck anyway because he's using direct drive.

You have to solder on both the motors and battery connectors, other wise, it's ready to go.

I would recommend the Finger Tec ESC. They are very light weight, and very easy to use.

Your hands are the only good tools, the wheel is too porous to use a cleaning solution.

Narrow wheels have the advantage of self cleaning when they lose traction. Lite Flites and Lectra Lites have the issue of being lint rollers, trust me when I say this.
Also, you can get 1.5 inch Lectra's at finger tec robotics. They weight 4.25 grams.
If you want to build a rammer/wedge, I would suggest the 50:1 motors, not the 30:1. The reason is that you need to have very quick acceleration, like a bullet. Speed is meaningless unless you can get up to that speed quickly. This was the secret to Tornado's success.
Also, I have both a Hobby King brand radio and a Spektrum Dx5e, you have room in your budget, I would suggest the Dx5e, as it is way nicer than the Hobby King radio.

Might I recommend Botbitz gear motors? You wont have to pay the price of brand names. They're just a little bit heavier than the brand name gear motors, but way cheaper.
I approve of lite flites, but I would suggest Lectra lites. They are exactly the same as Lite Flites, but are thinner and weigh less.
The type of plastic you want to use is either UHMW or HDPE. Most US builders prefer the former, and most UK builders prefer the latter.
Crystal based radios are a dieing breed, go with a inexpensive 2.4Ghz radio.
That's my say.

I can't even tell what it's supposed to be.
