Yup, i'll be trying stock tires today. After i test my new setup with the crimes though. I wanna see the difference in setup, with the tires i've been running. Then i'll check stockers. I'll see everybody at DB's around 10:30. Eric i wanna drive that Jammin today!

Default RE: Dirt Burner MT racers!!!

Well guys, today was FUN!!! It fealt really good to lap that field in round 1 of unlimited trucks! Thunder kitty is GOOOOOOD!!!! And btw fellas, i ran the LST2 today without the front sway bar. Let me just suggest you do the same. More steering, more traction, better on-power steering. The amount of throttle i held thru that turn at the end of the straight was amazing. The truck rocks. I had 2 laps on the field during our main, then something was slipping. In case anybody was wondering, after my LST2 went down, Rusty handed me the radio to his E-Revo. Man that thing was fun. You really dont even have to lift much in turns. Very dialed! I think the weight helps keep it planted. Which is why John announced Rusty Butler as the winner of that race. LOL.... Anyway, it was a blast today for sure. Jake, thanks for letting me use your Nubz! Brian, the MGT looks better every time man. I think a little setup work, and just some more patience on the track, and you'll be an A-main regular. Oh and Sandor, thanks for pitting during the main. I know my LST2 smoke bombed ya at the start. Sorry! Anyway, great racing. Eddie you slacker!!! You shoulda been there! They SPLIT THE CLASSES!!! You woulda loved it. I think everyones gotta agree, the races not only looked better split up like that, they WERE better. I pay an extra 10 bucks to race the extra class for sure. What a blast. Anyway, i gotta go rip open my LST2. See what broke....

Today was great man. I really had a good race with the mayhem st. It ran all 3 Q's and the 15 minute main without really any problems (I say really because the wheel nut came loose during practice once hehe).

The truggy feels good. Really good. I like it....But there is something missing. I have to work on my setup, but I really don;t know what else to ajust at this point. I think maybe it's time I hand the radio to Matt, or Sandor, or Jake or someone and have the tell me what needs to be done. But none the less, it ran. and it ran great!!! I still cannot believe how much power this truck has. I will be VERY surprised if the Jammin CRT is faster then the mayhem (well, my mayhem )

Speaking of Jammin's, all i'm gonna say is ERIC YOU DA MAN!!! Let's here it for "Jammin E" "Biggest RC truck dealer this side of the mississippi!!!" LMAO

Well i'm hungry as the day is long, so to the kitchen I go!!! Thanks for all the help, all the time guys. You rock!!!

O and Matt, jake said that if you guys keep on breaking things in the cold you might stop coming in the winter here, WHATS UP WITH THAT DUDE??!! If your thunder kitty is scared of the jammin then all you gotta do is say it!!!!!! We won;t rag on you!!! [X(]



EDIT: As far as class splits go, i'm fine with it. Infact I like it that way. The races looked much better.

Matt, I can guess what was slipping... maybe the OWB in the 2 speed. Mine started doing it again at the end of the day Friday... It feels alot like a loose slipper, but eventually, it will not engage at all. Take it out, and clean it!

Great to see the clas split finally! Anyone complain about it?

LOL. Ya ken, you missed a good deal on a Jammin truck. LOL... You think its that one way bearing? Did you clean yours, or replace it entirely? And i think the class was split because Jake asked them if they were. Which was strange. Bill told me, and others at DB's the other night they wouldnt do that. Though i can honestly tell ya, im really happy about it. More track time, and an even playing field. Now i can race my friends with MT's, and race the other guys with outlaws, and show em what its like to race a fair race. I hope the class stays split up for good. Though i'll need to be buying fuel more often now. lol...

Chris man, i'll continue to race, but if it gets to that point outside.... Ya know... The one that says 5 degrees, feels like -18..... Well, then my ass will be sittin at home finding something to do. lol. And believe me... The thunder kitty is not scared of ANY Jammin truggy. Or the LSP's... Or the Kyosho truggy... I bought it, to put the heat on the truggy drivers. Just wait til its really dialed, and actually has some POWER!!!!

Yeah, I here ya. I can deal with temps down to about 20 degrees. But any lower and it's just so cold, and I am SURE things break even easier when it's 15 instead of like 30-35 like today.

Today was fun. You know, I like my truggies, But I am kinda sad not to have a MT [] I kinda miss'em already hehe.

I'm just an RC Fanatic, what can I say. lol. I'll have another one sooner or later. I think maybe a revo this time. Guess i'll just wait for someone to sell theirs.

SPLIT CLASSES!?!?!?!? I definitely have to make it next week, been doing some mods to the truggy (unbelievable amount of steering now) and maybe a few other surprises. Oh, Matt, on Bannedrc I couldn't register for some reason, could you let the guy on the thread there from Texas know that there is a Texas series, and if he is interested have him email me at [email protected] and I'll put him in touch with the Texas rep.

Yes, I cleaned mine with brake cleaner and soaked it in synthetic oil, then let it drip off for a bit before I wiped off 99% of the residue before I re-installed it.
