NOMOBUX, I mean the type of uploader that maintains a file that continues to collect data and will resume from the same point if the connection is lost, all that I have found so far, just start over. KAZ, OMG!, I'm glad noone was hurt and that you did get new stuff.

Man , that's way over my head. I did that one short clip and could prob never repeat what I did. I used ImTOO MOV conveter3 someone told me about to be able to email it. resizes

Yes , I believe that is correct ( 17/48 ) If I ever get more snow, I'm trying a 30. I run the 27 now. I think JimBliss was thinking even a 33 on his. Don't know if he has yet.


Yea, I got the 33 tooth on there, holy crap it is fast. But shortly after that all the snow got all ice & crusted over on the top. Just not as fun as all the powder. But the 27 & 30 tooth worked very nice too

Wow, that's 13.1:1 final drive ratio, very fast. I'm still at 14.5:1. I have a 34T pinion, but with the 72T spur that would be 10.6:1!, maybe too fast, if there is such a thing. Right now, nothing gets hot and it seems like the ideal balance of torque and speed for me. Are you still running the 86T spur?.

Thanks, I'll keep searching for a way. Right now I have to reinforce my suspension tube-arms after noticing that the springs are trying to warp them, this summer I may just fab a completely new hull from scratch. Can you still call it a blizzard if the only original parts are the tracks, brakes and diff?.

Thanks, I can use that for much of the editing. I wonder how a '32 body would look on a blizz chassis, BTW, that's a very nice ride.

Thanks, the vids may just have to wait till I get a better than 56k connection. I braced the suspension arms, tweaked the brakes, tightened the chains, and made some improvements to the wiring. I also scouted out some running locations 3500ft above Anchorage. A full acount of this whole project can be seen here...http://making-trax.org/index.php?s=05aee33a8572effe25c30ebd284ef1a2&showtopic=653

Yep, Flat-Top Mountain in anchorage, still lots of nice powdery snow up there. I need to test the brakes and suspension mods before I run it up there, but doing a downhill run sounds fun.

I found a way around the "no way to upload problem", I put it on BearShare, it's called "blizzin.avi".


Link ?

Finally got my Blizzard.

It came with a 16 tooth pinion and a 66 tooth spur? Looks like a 66 anyway. It is a a HPI spur. What spurs are you using? Brand / part number?

Don't think I will ever get my 3S LiPos in there...way too long. I should have measured before I bought. I will deffinately be able to get 4S A123 in there. Those battery cinch straps are nice.
