Then I ran the pede with the wheelie bar installed and it's quite fun. Here are some pictures



Edit: Just came back inside from running my volcano (pretty much a tsunami now) on my track. As you can see, I'm running only 4 shocks, I have a stadium truck body, I lowered it, and I have the mamba bumpers (gives it more of a racer look). I added some pictures of it.

Status: offline 		Me and a couple friends ran our RC's yesterday. Went to the local airport

and set up some cones on a big open lot. Had my Fun Factor running for

about 5 minutes until it ate up the spur gear. Went home and got my Volcano.

Ran a few tanks through. Ran great. My friends had their x-cellerator and T-Maxx.

T-Maxx ran good. X-cellerator took off and went through a field. Went about 200 yards

until it finally stopped. Think he put the crystals in wrong. After that it ran great.

Lots of crashing and roll overs but no broken parts. Went to a BMX track and tried out the dirt.

Tore the exhaust coupler on my Volcano about ten minutes in. T-Maxx and X-cellerator had

a head-on collision. X-cellerator lost. Broke front suspension arm. Ordered new parts today.

Everyone had a good time. X-cellerator needs new tires. Original tires didn't like the pavement.

Status: offline 		Mostly wrenched, not ran. Did get a couple hours' worth of bashin' the XTM at the local bash track. I stayed mostly on the old and unused race track, which had a couple good puddles that I accidentally landed in a couple times. I got stuck in second gear for almost all of a 290cc tank, and I thought I was skipping the freshly-shimmed differential gears under braking but upon inspection tonight I think I'm alright. Didn't break a thing, in other words!

I was alone so no video, but I do have some pix of my restyled (can I call it a Viper now?) New Proline Dirt Hawg 1 buggy tires stretched out over some HPI 2.2" rims. The shorter tire works VERY well with the direct drive transmission - it runs HARD now. It also handles quite well with the lower stance, but I'm going to lower it some more. So far I've done nothing with the suspension, but I'll cut the springs and fill the shocks with thicker fluid. Got about 3/4 tank on the Viper before one of the wheel nuts fell off...

LOL, Ya, It's fast alright..I had no idea..Thats not even top speed..I still need to put the new servo link for the carb, because the old one is broken but works half way..But will it won't let the carb open all the way and I don't have it tuned to hit 2nd gear yet either, It was an original tornado BB with the sh-18, But mostly all Himoto parts on her now .. Donny helped Me tune it and ever since then, Thing ahs been a rocket!.. I blew off a rim actually so I'm going to put My aluminum ones on ..

I got a sun burn that day Red! LOL.. Been really nice out besides for yesterday and today..lots of rain..
We would have hit up the ATV track but it rained that night and early in the morning so it would have been a mud pit.
