West bound train A leaves the station at X. East bound train B leaves the station at X on the same tracks. What time and where do the TV crews need to set up the camera?
While you should win make sure to carry the cash. Never know about a blown glo plug, broke drive train, etc. Be bad to wake up in the hospital asking wha happunned if you loose and they had to remove an LST from your posterior.

You must be too young to know that the "pinks" he's talking about are 'pink slips". That's what they used to call the regestration or title of a vehicle because they were printed on pink paper. He was saying that the winner gets to keep the losers truck. That could easily make the stakes more than $1000 depending on upgrades.

It was a joke; hence the LOL and the 3s. My first RC was a Tamiya Wild One(when it was new) I knew what he meant but I have never titled an RC in any of the the Three decades that I have owned them. No hard feelings; all is great.
Peace

is this guy for real... 50foot head start [X(] man if he is that confident it either means "your going to get your arse handed to you before you could get past the half mark" OR "he's full of sh*t" i think the second one is more realistic

Sorry 'bout that. I meant no disrespect, I really thought you might not know. There are so many young guys on here ya just never know. I seriously thought you were talking about something else (something WAY else). My mistake.

RE: $1000 race against 3 speed savage do i have a chance
THE LST2 WON BY ABOUT 15-20 FEET. IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE. heres how it went down
after he saw my tuck getting up to temp he change the bet i was about 85% sure he didnt have a chance
so allowed it so we bet $500 +hed had a new sirio.30 in the box against my $500 and a new sh28 i had. his
motor cost more than twice as much as mine i think about $320 he knew it but he had to save face cause there were at least 20 people watching. here was my final setup 0s30
+2 pinions,#8 glow,stock tires wheels,jammin pipe, removed bumpers and a couple minor things i also ran
30% odonnel. considering the money on the line we agreed if u flip or break that would warrant a restart.once
i saw his truck run after tuning its fast but if i had a third gear and could shave a pound or two i could take
him heads up. after my lst2 was fully tuned he was trying to get me to run heads up i didnt have to say anythimg
the other guys were getting on him about all the sh** he was talking so that wasnt gonna happen. both trucks
will easliy flip on there back so we both had to take it easy on the start.i was making my return trip
and was on about the 30 yard line when he was passing me to make the firt lap i think he was trying to
hit me but he quickly rethought it because that would of been the end of both trucks and he has alot more money in his than i do.he end ed by say ing his truck wasnt running right. i dont everything his truck had
but i woulnt suggest anybody running one heads. thanks for all your help guys

If you had a engine with topend you would have been much faster.
