Right so you are commenting in a thread about a car you know nothing about except you have seen one bend a shock tower.. I bet the guy who races one says your X5 is better as well doesnt he, coz he must think its rubbish if it bends a shock tower in a crash, guess he's sold it now and bought an X5 right?

no the guy who race s3 sells s3 also he keep on say how good s3 are and good value for money and i just nod my head and agree with him

and just like people here he keep on say how his s3 is so good. i ask what he had before he say s2 (he sell them too) and i say his car look good on the track but too bad he i1 lap behind at end of 10 min qualify

Ah well, the British Champ runs an S3 so he would probably be 1 lap behind you as well...

Having reviewed your 27 posts on this site, I am wondering if you actually have anything constructive to add to this thread, as I can't actually name a buggy with an unbendable/unbreakable shock tower... Bearing in mind the S3 shock towers are made from 7075-T6 alloy, the same as all the upgrade parts for other buggies, I am assuming you will count all those buggies in your carp list, including the MBX-5...

Its become apparent that you really are a troll, nothing more...

For those that are unsure as to how I reached this conclusion, check out his other posts, see how many of them are slagging one thing or another or being sarcastic in one form or another.... He doesnt have an S3 yet the majority of his posts are slagging the S3... Troll pure and simple....

Obvoiusly, his mother never told him " if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all "
Hey, qwertydvorak, since we all know your opinion about the S3, and don't really care what you have to say about it, why don't you share some of your opinions on what clutch or engine you're using, maybe share some first-hand experience.

Yeah but in an engine thread...

Yes, you're right, I should have said in a different thread.
either way, he should go talk trash about how much better he thinks his x5 is than a S3 somewhere else.

Back on topic, so everyone is using the stock clutch set-up in the S3?

I have used the stock clutch and the K-Factory clutch bells, all with the stock shoes at present... 13 and 14T bells...

Both seem fine so far, but after 2 gallons my clutch bearings are pretty much shot, so I am waiting on some newuns (and surplus stock)

i have owned 2 MBX 5's...the are fragile and cheep crap...My shocktowers bent from the wind resistance of going down the back strait. Typical mugen..big price...crap product. I race against like 10 mugens regularly...everytime they go to start them on the starter box....the chassis blows up. the diffs leak and put oil slicks infront of me while i come around to lap them...i saw some crash before..and when the guy grabed the wing to flip it...he pulled of everthing from the chassis...

heres the facts dingleberry...The S3 is of quality that is as high or higher than mugen...the stock mugen shock towers bend easy..just like the stock S3 towers...the TTR plastics are pretty much the best in the business on this buggy..i have over 6 gallons on my S3...and still have almost NO play in any of the parts...my X5 had to have the plastic bushings replaced every 2-3 gallons..my ttr is still on the original...the TTR has some of the best DIFFS in the business also...after 4 gals of running..i went to replace diff oils for a big race...i didnt have too..the were still full to the top...

they need to somehow make it towhere u can only talk about products that u have first hand information about..so retards like qwerkydonk and motopro can only post in there crappy car threads..I have no experience with any Kyosho product..but i dont bash it one bit..i have very lil experience with Ofna..i dont bash it...u have no experiece with anything..u bash...

Cheers

ok..ChiTown...if u want to use stiffer springs...get some Nitro TC3 clutch springs...i believe the copper colored ones are the stiffest..u will need 2 packs..let me go see if i have a pack laying around for the part#

Repete well said, Most of the hear say and rumors are just opinions and you know what they say about opinions
It gets to a point where you have to just see for yourself and forget about what people say as it gets more confusing the more you talk to different people... It does get annoying when you get people saying this isn’t good or that is crap when they never had one to experience it.

Hey Mark
get in touch with "Roach" on Maxbashing as he is pretty much THE person to see about bearings in the UK
plus i know hes just got in 200 clutch sized bearings last week

TT quality "7075-T6" LOL

Well its definately higher quality than your posts...

I fly TT helis, plastic framed... they are now putting 90 engines in the 50 plastic frames... with the raptor alloy head block...

You can laugh but you cant add anything evidential...

Troll

Just discovered that the clutch bearings are the same as my RC-Labs uses for hub bearings... I have a load of them new and spare so have upgraded all of my clutches..



Yeah I know robbieroach for bearings as well, but I expected mine to come with the kit, unfortunately it had been scavenged prior to dispatch...

s3 is the fastest accelerating smoothest cornering and has all the titanium aircraft grade parts and plastic never break also no need to setup the car coz whatever setup you run out of the box it will tq

Yup another quality BS post...

Where do you get them from....

and why did your mom name you Troll? hahahha what a name

Excellent work again, your command of english is as good as ever...

its people like queerdork who destroy online forums

OK Guys, come on, first off, I don't think English is qwertydvorak's first language, so at least appreciate that he has made the effort to learn at least acceptable English for your (our) benefit, I doubt you speak Russian, Chinese or Greek, so take it easy on that count, some of the grammatical, spelling and punctuation mistakes made by native English speakers on forums (not just this one), are an absolute disgrace, and they have no excuse.

Secondly, forums are about opinion, and he is entitled to his, however poorly conceived.

Thirdly, I think he's yanking your chains, he obviously has a respect for the car, even jealousy, as he seems to have a problem with the fact that it dials in twenty seconds straight out the box.

Finally, if you really can't stand someone, ignore them, it's better than making comments like 'Troll', true or not.

<Gets down off soapbox>.....Please don't hurt me I'm new. By the way, I like the sound of this buggy, it sounds excellent, but I had some really bad experiences with TTR products, and it will take a long time for the wounds to heal, I'm definitely going for the Hyper 7.

yes please forgive me i still learn english i hope i can get better

For someone with a poor grasp of english he has an incredible grasp of sarcasm and trashing...

Look at his latest post on the X1-CR...

I mean FGS this guy doesnt have an opinion, he has a sour mouth for just about every product but the ones he owns...

Losers like this should just stay away... they spoil the forums for those of us that want to have a proper discussion.. and yes older thunder tiget quality was poor, as is some of the current rtr stuff, but thats in a completely different category to this product which just oozes quality all the way through...

heres my evidence...













Note the transponder... not a basher.. a racer.. albeit a bad one


The use of the word troll is an internet term for someone who posts in forums looking to start arguments...

as you can see it fits pretty accurately, wasnt meant to be an insult, a pure statement of evidence leading to the facts...

That is a pretty sweet buggy, and you might wanna check out my response to his post on the x1cr thread, ok he's a bit of a plum at times, but the world is full of 'em and we all gotta deal with it, I thought his comment about the blue clutch was f'in hilarious. By the way, I'm from Coventry originally, but spent many many years in Kingston, then moved to greece two years ago...what's the weather like in blighty? Getting better now I hear...

P.S. I know what troll means, I just think it's a bit harsh for this situation.

Hey foxy, not far from coventry me... weather is up and down but forecast is okay for this weekend, which will be nice as have a race meeting on sunday... it has suddenly got a lot warmer last few days tho...

Yeah he has made some funny comments, but he has been fight picking and slagging Alex, I will let it slide and see if he can adapt his behavious to become a useful forum member... Humour has its place, but endless attempts and no positive input just gets very wearing...

I think you will actually find thats 2 sweet buggies... Yes I have 2 TTR S3's now... one well upgraded and the other box stock... the stock one is really for spares/emergencies tho... Set 2 up the same and then in the event of a problem, unbolt radio box/servo tray as one piece and bolt it straight in the other...

Sweet...
