hey guys, i am going to start another wheelie constest sometime twards the end of the week, hopefully this one will be better, last longer and cause less problems than the last one. Anyone (dealers) willing to donate prizes please let me know thru email or pm since we will have to sort out what prizes go to what winner, depending on how many donations we get will figure on how many place winners there will be, i would like at least 3. i am still going to donate the hot wheels radar gun.

anyways, here are some pictures of my contestant, lol. i cant give you all my secrets though until after i win

here are some of the things i have in it:

eddie thats the pipe i sent u !!

BackYardRacer

sweet! nice pipe

allenthen831

that car looks real nice ed cant wait to see these videos of people trying to get their car to wheelie

ehroof

i think it will be alot of fun, hopefully it will go good this time. i think more people will like to try to wheelie thier car than jumping, less broken parts, LOL

Chubbysdad

My Feedback: (1)

maybe not.... just think a car is hard to steer with front wheels in the air. Could lead to more broken parts lmao

allenthen831

haha i cant be in the contest i dont have a redcat anymore

ehroof

lol, never thought about it that way, still 2 wheels off the ground should be better than 4 off the ground 10 feet in the air and the landing, no?

rclynx

If the other guys run out of parts I stock everything for the 1/10 trucks.........lol[&o]

Yea but I got that handled Eddie not the wheelie[]

ehroof

thats why i think this will be a good contest, its going to take skill, know how and some luck to get the 1/10ths to wheelie, wont be so easy to do!!!!!

ehroof

ok here are the rules
1. 1/10 scale redcats only (we know the 1/8 trucks can wheelie easily)
2. must keep the vehicle 4x4
3. no weight to be added to the rear and no wheelie bars
4. video of buggy/truck with body off and putting the body back on before doing the wheelie('s), this way there will be no cheating


sound good, any suggestions? maybe if we get enough dealers to donate something we can have a 1/8th scale wheelie contest to go along with this 2, its just not fair to have them both in the same contest since the 1/8 trucks can wheelie out of the box.

Kemo

how about video proof that the vehicle still has 4wd engaged?

Can you guys lock the rear diff?

ehroof

thats why i figured in the video you have to show the vehicle with the cover off, close up and putting the body back on and the wheelie without a lapse in the video. I guess you can lock the diff, silly putty in the diff or something.

Crazziee

Seems like a fun event. Will you all post the videos here so we can check them out?

supersound99ss

just curious but what would it take to get my tornado xl to do a wheelie? gearing change, engine swap?

rclynx

Probably both and then some...........thats why the contest so we can see what it takes. Got to watch the ehroof guy he might bring in a ringer..........lol.........just kidding[sm=lol.gif]

allenthen831

thats the point of the contest to see what u have to do to get the car to wheelie

ehroof

lol, what are we playing, horse shoes? Hey dealers, anyone want to email or pm me with some donations to the cause?

ehroof

so is anyone going to try? i am in, even if just for fun. i havent gotten it to do it yet but i will do my best to try. I have rclynx.com who is going to give a failsafe.

supersound99ss

i wasn't even sure if it was possible with the XL thats why i was asking...and the point of the contest is to see who can do the best wheelie..not just who can do one

Redcat Nick

At this rate it looks like it will come down to who can do one. not who can do the best. lol

ehroof

Well bro, we shall see, lol. Going to start sept 1st and end sept 30th.

ehroof

has anyone tried yet, i have been trying with my volcano and not yet but i have 30+days left.

allenthen831

this contest is gonna be very interesting cant wait to see a REDCAT do a wheelie

rclynx

Modified Redcat that is [:-]
