Anybody do any running lately??
Weather not so good the last few days in the northeast, we went to my lhs saturday and ran the tremor, it has a small dirt track in the back yard, everyone came out to watch it run, its a great little truck, had a lot of good comments about it. had alot of fun though. saturday and sunday are supposed to be nice this weekend, in the 60's so we should have some fun.

We ran my Hurricane with the STS Monster 30, Wife ran her Tremor, Son ran his Tremor to test out his new custom roto starter to take the place of his pull start, daughter ran her tremor and my brother was running his tornado with his new proline tires. Was an awsome two days.

I have not ran my buggy for awhile. Weather has sucked and I have been working on 2 sides jobs for the past couple of weeks. Wiring a basement and a pole barn. Should be done this weekend, or Saturday. Then I will beat the crap out of it on Sunday.

yea i ran yesterday and broke a c hub steering arm and a arm in a half tank of gas. and i only had three wheel drive because something was messed up on m truck. and me and my uncle decided to play bumper cars. but i forgot i didnt have a bumper and ripped of my whole wheel and i ran out of parts to fix it so i have to either buy aluminum from him or buy from hobbystore and im not sure yet. but i got the worst of it.

So I forgot to change out my batt's and I watched my car travel at top speed again into a curb in the same lot as before.... Blew out my gas tank and bent the frame a bit... not too bad but I have to wait on a new tank now... guess that give me time to recharge the batt's!

RE: Anybody do any running lately??
I've been running pretty much daily a couple of tanks through, it's been in the 40's and 50's, but now 60's and man the truck is screaming.
I want to get some video to share, but today we're expecting some rain so I do not think I can run today but tomorrow I should be able to. Getting a good camera person may be difficult too but I'm working on that [8D] wifey wants no part of helping or enjoying my RC racing now since she's pregnant she's "changed her tude" a little [] but it's just temporary (i hope).
Oh and spares are a must, I have a little inventory of the items I broke in the past but have not broken any in a while (c-hubs, rear axle mounts, front axle mounts, etc., etc.). I find now that I tend to roll over less unless I try to make a jump out of things that are not intended to be jumps
