haha
was down there last night!

myself, chaverz (gavin), jeff, andrew

had 4 r/c's together.. was so wet, cars ran for about 5 mins, went through some big puddles and stalled..

couldn't start em up again! (all cars)

ill be back there on a dry night!...

love these things, got it tuned right..
brakes / acc set nicely..
steering is a bit sharp.. very hard to keep straight..

lots of spinning..

anyway, anybody got any suggestions with ideal engine temp?
i've been told to tune it to 120 degree's C..
i've got a temp sensor for it with min / max logging. (cool ey)

as for tyres, is there anything stickier than the foam ones?
rubbest just spin!!!.. no control at all!!

also got an eclipse shell on mine.. looks cool..

i've already had to replace 1st gear on it (shredded the thing!!)
but at least its cheaper than the vr4..
 
gavin purchased some DORRRRRRRRIFT wheels/tyres

its just silicon hose (same as intercooler piping stuff) on the rim..

maybe i should make my own!

set him back 30 a pair.. so 60 a set!!
not cheap!
 
just got another one!
cen ct4s (117 kph out of the box!!!)

chaverz and jeff just bought 2 friggen monster trucks!!
2.5HP each!..
man they are wicked things!
jumping off ramps and flying about 1m high!..
one of them took out a mates r/c (ripped the head right off the block!!!)
he owes him a new engine lol..

they paid 800 each.. lots of cash indeed..

anyways, finally getting mine running nicely..
16% fuel,
been killing gears though (plastic spurs) keep stripping them when the engine moves (crashes)

anyway.. anybody in vic interested in a meet?
we're probably gonna meet up on sat again (past 3 weeks so far)
at the stud road track...
if weather is good that is..
 
It's all that money we gave him for SBR parts which haven't arrived yet :twisted:


Baz... did you spend the money where it was supposed to be spent? :p
 
they sound absoloutly mad, i wish i wasnt spending money on my car at the moment :p
 
Ok... I bought one of these today. Still figuring it out. Haven't even gotten it close to getting started yet.


Anyone know a place I can buy 1/10th scale bodies? I want an evo shell :)
