@ max


nope i topped your worst by 10 get a brnd new t-maxx 3.3 start the break in get to the second tank so 1/4 throtle for 3 seconds and suddenley the sthing screamed then died so i bought it back to have a look the glow plug was glowing cherry red the temp was over 500 because my temp gun goes up to 500 and it read error so i took it home called traxxas and explained they said its not posable so i hung up called modlesport where i bought it they said to look if i have compresion so i tryed to spin the fly whele and it just span like 4 times with no effort so i looked and i found that at the factory the engine head was put on with 2 screws lol i got a new one for free and they gave me a few hopups


then on my savvage i was playing in the hills in scotland(i think)i hit a bump and flew in to a river the river was moving at like 100 mph it just went to the bottom and disapered a year later i was at the same place and found some savage parts lol

lol that sucks about the t max.

I find MT's un-neccessary lol.

Everytime I go to the track, theres always a broken MT.

I might swap my chassis out tomorrow, I dont know yet.

Or might hold out for a few more parts.

My truggy is WAY better than the MT. I dont like MT's my dad bought it for me for my 10th b-day. I didnt mind it then but i didnt know how to drive then. Im still searching for that vid. I hope no 1 deleted it.

qaiz 01-27-2008 02:20 PM

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread
 
Nah.

I dont like MT.

Only one I like is the Revo.

Tho I know a guy who has a Savage for sale for about $100, and its got an 528 in it.

Its heavily beaten and bruised up.

its a good deal.

qaiz 01-28-2008 09:46 AM

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread
 
Sure, no problem.

This engines completely done for.

Ive taken it out and re-greased it, its just lying idle here.

Ill give it to you next time I see you at the track alright.?

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread
 
just out of interest is it worth getting the presicion steering plate

qaiz 01-28-2008 10:04 AM

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread
 
The only real reason I needed mine is because I keep adjusting my EPA's, it kind of helps keep things in check.

What website did ya order the parts from, I might need some soon. I need a new front bumper lol. Mines completely SHOT.

rcpowerhorse 01-28-2008 10:08 AM

RE: Tamiya Nitrage 5.2, The Offical Thread
