haha sounds fun.. i wish someone around here played with rc's

maxxin2.5

hey emaxxman you and dean get a video of you to racing or just screwing around.. i want to make a track like it so i would like to see one...

Mz

heres my track

-JOE-

How wide are your lanes?

buster7467

My Feedback: (2)

They look about 8 to 10 feet wide. That is a big enough track to run some 1/10 scale on too.

Mz

im not sure. i did it by eye. i wanted to be able to comfortably race 6 minis at once.

My Feedback: (1)

well right now its only me because he is selling his mini baja so he can either get a kyosho mini inf. 09 or a 18b...

im trying to have him get the 18b so we can have even races..

maxxin2.5

yeah.. sounds fair..

emaXXman123

My Feedback: (1)

we gotta convince him!!!!!

if he sells the baja he can buy a 18b with extra money to use on a 1600maH battry and get a mini inf. 09 for his birthday in november

maxxin2.5

haha good idea... or he can get the 09 and you can upgrade your motor...so you can officially say that you beat a nitro with your electric..
i think it would be kool...he can get the 18b for birthday..
hey but yeah dud get an rc18t/b..
they are very good cars.. very reliable and fast!
great aftermarket support and the parts are soo cheap!!
also its not the same hassle as it would be for a nitro...
gas is now 30$ a gallon!

emaXXman123

My Feedback: (1)

what!?!? 30 dollars now!?!? i remeber it was 14.99 =P

maxxin2.5

well its 30$ here...well 28.. 30 with tax...

emaXXman123

My Feedback: (1)

wow thats insane now...butt about the 09 and the 18b..

pros about 18b:
Ready to go
super fast out of the box
great for racing with neighbors right near fence

cons:
not as fast as nitro
gotta charge batteries

Pros about 09:
faster then 18b
good off road racer
can race anytime (dont gotta wait for batteries to charge)

Cons:
Loud for racing in neighborhood
gotta spend money on gas
tuning can be a pain
lot more money
messy

anything i miss on both cars?

Metallover

Gas is $35 here.

maxxin2.5

haha yeah.. i think the electric is better...
because you can buy two batteries and while you are running one the other is charging..
well get a good charger so it chargers in 30 minutes..

Here is my Track. Me and my friend used to race on it but he traded me his Mini-T and now he only has 1/10 so I'm trying to find him a good deal on a RC18T. When I get back from vacation I'm going to have to clean it because there is some grass growing on it. We are also making a 1/10 track at my friends house and I'm going to race his Pede with my RC18T and win like I did with my Mini-T. It was my First time driving on a track and he's been there at least 10 times and I lapped him. I even had a new motor/battery/tires/ and a new shock set-up.

nice track.. would be good with some more jumps

Volcanosv18

Yea, my track is coming along, me and my parents have said screw it and were going to bring in a truck full of top soil clayish mix, should be really easy to make jumps and build it up.

Dirt where I live is well... dirt cheap [&:]

maxxin2.5

haha kool..

Anyone ever do portable parking lot tracks? Me and a co-worker are working on it now. So far we've acquired some of those little cardboard mini-t jumps, some bottles(to be used as cones w/ sand in bottom obv) and some ideas. Im looking to get ahold of those little road-dot land-mine things. Not that **** through road-dome where they're 6 a piece. Thats stupidly overpriced and they look too small. I would also like to get ahold of a little plastic skate ramp(the wal-mart style) and maybe some other portable items. Any ideas where to get the domes/other fun and portable obstacles.

maxxin2.5

there used o be a rc race a few miles away from here in a kmart parking lot..
they used hose..

Alex73

There i one problem with jumps and car parks, you kill your car if you don't land perfect.
I have been running my mini-t up and down the road, without jumps and have put holes in my newly painted shell[:'(].

Timdoggydizzle05

^i have several bodies that i really dont care about, and stock pre-painteds are cheap ha. My only concern is that if you get chassis slap it realy messes you up ha.

Alex73

I wish i had that privilege. I wanted a custom one, so painted a clear stock one.
I have chunks missing out the rear of my chassis.[&o]

deanR

ok party's over, i can read all of this.
no we have no videos but maybe i can take one with my digital camera. once i get a buggy, as most of you know.
anyone wanna buy a mamba mini baja? seriously lmk if you do. oh and we have a new layout.
