RE: Local race Traks From FT. Lauderdale down to Miami
Hey its good to hear you guys talk about tracks in florida. I used to go to those tracks my self and they are very good tracks. I live in NewYork now, But I miss living in Florida. So I see: You are from miramar, I used to live in coral springs, Blackrain where in florida do you live at if you don't mind me asking you? By the way Coral Springs road runner track got turned into an electric track they used to run gas powered there what happened there??? Did they change the rules???? I have been a way for about 3 years so I am just trying to find out whats going on?? thank you peace Rob

Well Miramar FL is the city right next to Pembroke Pines. and is right before Hialeah. I've been living in Pembroke pines for seven years and i know that three years ago Miramar wasnt that popular maybe thats why you dont know where it is. well what do you think about mills pond have you been there before? how much is the fee to get in?

hey bro thanks a lot[sm=wink_smile.gif] for that website is not that far from my house. i think i might just go over there one of these days. but first i have to change my pipe and that means tuning the t-maxx agian. lol. if i do go this will be my first time going to a track. i only been to places where they are building house and just ride my t-maxx there. but lets see how it gose. is there any tips i should be aware about when i drive my r/c on a track?

IF its the tmaxx get some kinda of bowtie wheels so u have traction and lower the car a little bit so you dont have that real high CG..........there is about 2 guys that go to the track with tmaxx's but there bone stock and since they dont set them up they dont handle very well........another thing u should do is take the grease out of ur diffs and use silicon oil (if u havent already) for the tmaxx a good starting point would be 5K in the front and 2K in the rear and go from there..........

as far as what motor on the mbx5t dont put the nova 528 its over kill, you would be better of with a good .21 engine. my diff are setup 7,10,3 as far as setups go you should check out truggyracers.com and look in there mbx5t section. my mugen is plain crazy, but i bought the motor more as a luxury item when i decide to race it more seriously ill pick up a good .21 motor. right know i mainly like to race my monster trucks lst2, nemesis, revo there more of a challenge to drive. the membership cost 30 dollars for the year and you pay 6 bucks to run. if your not a member you will pay 10 dollars to run. wednesday nights practice and saturdays race day.
