Status: offline 		Hey dont get me wrong aluminum is cool. I just dont use it that often thats all. i dont want my car to be weighed down. thats just how i feel. But in come cases i agree to use it like on my t maxx i comverted to brushless. I had to make the diffs aluminum housing due to the amount of power Im putting thru the truck and im sure i might do the same thing to my rs4 and my mt2 when ever i get some money.

Status: offline 		Possibly an air leak. Just like when you lean it out, you're cutting out fuel and adding more air your engine revs up too. The reason it revs up when it warms up because the engines shape changes once heated up, any small gap there was gets bigger with heat.

If you need help sealing it up let me know and I will help you out step by step and it will only cost you about $5.

Status: offline 		Like car Tune said you have a air leak somewhere in the engine. It happens all the time. It's probably the cheapest fix to do. It doesn't take alot of time to do just the dry time afterwards that's all.

Status: offline 		How's it going guys I just wanted to post a few pictures of my cars. They are all little winter works in progress as of right now. I do have all the parts to finish the builds but going to take my time. The one with the purple top is going to be setup with the stock 2 speed and a losi mach .26. The hardcore racing titanium one will be the top speed setup for sure with a modded jp .21 and the final one is a drag obviously. It has the front one way and I had a aftermarket 2 speed for it. There will be a potent little small block in it thats all done up.

Status: offline 		There are all racer 2s even the dragster. That one has stock arms and everything else is stock as well. I made those tires but in order to use them you need to find a body that's I little longer in the wheelbase and flip the arms around to get clearance for the gears. I am going to try to keep it is close to stock as possible. At least that's my goal. I have a cd3 that's real similar to that too. I am going to focus on getting that one done first to help support the mod business.

Ya that about right. I can't think of the name of the stuff right now but the stuff I use is copper or a black one. It also has to be night temp like car tune said

Status: offline 		Its about every thread on rcu anymore is quite dead. A stragler hear and there but it almost seems the overall hobby is dieing out. The tracks are closing the doors not just for the winter and there is more train and helicopter than anything in the hobby shop. I can't even go and get a matching front and rear set of rims for a st let alone any wheels for a car. Its getting pretty sad and I just don't understand how people can put so much time and money into this then walk away.

Status: offline 		In reality this is chump change compared to actually building a real race car. I have seen a lot of peoe jump onto the hobby cus they see my car and think its a cool hobby, but a month after they have purchased their toy they are trying to sell it. But it's not people like this here who are dropping the hobby, it's people who have been into it for years.
