To answer my own question, you can pull the trays out with your fingers and thumb. They pop right out. I'm very impressed with how poorly they are epoxied in place.

Ray, it looks like you stuck your battery velcro directly to the inside of the sponson, without using tray. Is that correct? Did you epoxy it in place, or just use the adhesive on the velcro?

I just used the Velcro itself but, i've been planning on putting trays in there forever, lol... after your epoxy has cured for about 3 days to a week, wipe it with some Lacquer thinner so the Velcro sticks better than mine It's been toughing it out well for 2 years now though...

My MG needs an Overhaul... Where's Chip Foose when I need him? I'm going to do the sponsons again, maybe 0.030" carbon fiber ride pads with sponson overhang.
If this other cat works out for LSO, limited racing classes then I might twin out my MG over the winter.

I've had this cat for a few years. Got as far as motor mount installed and hardware plus the mod on hatch to close the nitro opening... Still needs the sponsons done too, edges are too round.

Ray, thanks for the extra info.

I haven't heard of using carbon fiber for the ride pads before. Is there a good description of this somewhere? What do you mean by sponson overhang?

I'd love to see your MG twin build, if you do it.
