Status: offline 		wow dennis! that really looks like a mean truggy! i haven't even started on mine yet, still working on the buggy! i have had family over at my house alot over the holidays, so i couldn't get much work done. i'm going to the hobby shop tomarro to pick up the last few things i need like servos, fuel tubing, some odd bearings, etc. will let yall know when i get started. by the way, that looks like a pretty nive track layout too. you are very clever to use the trees as the base for the jumps, should be easier to maintain. lorenzo and i have done absolutely nothing to our track, just haven't got the equipment to drag it and don't have the time either! catch you all later!

hey darryl,
your rides look nice. certainly very well equipped too. i see that your truggy is coming along. are you going to keep a secret of what's under the body? well it won't be a secret for long after we see how it runs!

Status: offline 		LOOKING GREAT DENNIS . i take it your going with blue this 2006 season. cant wait to get to the track, im getting burned out on my testing track. i think we need to have an all get together and (FIXEM) night with some pizza or something. So some of the more expert divers can give (us) me some hands on learning.

Status: offline 		hey guys,
nice looking rides there dennis. looks like a pretty formidable force. i am about to start on my truggy. just got the rest of my parts yesterday so i just need to finish cleaning up the buggy.
daryll,
i will be running a truggy this season too, so that is three truggies so far (dennis, you, and me). my friend lorenzo will be running his savage and i'm pretty sure jerry will run his savage too. i guess all of the trucks can run in the same class. this way we can run the trucks while the buggies cool off. that new track will certainly put a beating on those buggies! my advice to become a better driver is, like you said, practice. everyday after i get home from my school i always go and run atleast one of my R/Cs. it doesn't matter if it's the buggy, truck, mini cars, whatever. it will sharpen your coordination and eye-hand coordination too. throttle control aswell. just bashing really won't help though. get a set of cans or soccer cones and weave inbetween them, or atleast set up a mini track and practice taking turns, that is the most essential part of driving. just my 2 cents.
mac

Status: offline 		thnaks mac, yes i run atleast 1 tank a day rather it is a buggy or my mgt. my wife is also getting better at driving also , i got her a mugen 5 and she seems to enjoy it but likes the monster truck better so i think she is going to be a truggy girl. hey i just got a huddy setup board for off road buggys, gonna try and set up a buggy by the board and see how it goes, you ever use one?

? for anyone, what does anyone think about a 2 speed on a buggy i know some lower end buggies come with'em but what is your opinion?
