Default First time out in a year with the Hyper!

Well I just wanted to say theres nothing better than not running your nitro all year long, then one day you put new clutch shoes on, and every thing starts up good as new. I just have to tell you guys that I couldn't be happier with the Hyper 7 B.E . The Axial .28I have in it is awesome, no stalls on the first pull. So Ithought i would just share the good news with you guys.

Freaking sucks here in cali right now. All week beautiful weather and I finally get a day off and the dam rain comes back so I am left here stairing at my 8ight T 2.0, Hyper 9 and MP7.5 all ready to go but can't cause its raining and there are 40 mph winds. Oh well I guess it could be worse. Could be stuck waiting for snow to melt and the temps to get above freezing like alot of you guys.
It is still 60 degrees here even with the wind and rain.

here in Illinois it sucks... track is closed, snow keeps falling as soon as its almost melted, salt on the streets.

im tired of it collecting dust. i hate this state[&o]

yeah it is a great feeling to take a car out of storage, plop in some batts, fill the tank, and it fires and takes off without a problem, makes this hobby worth while when it goes so easy, cant wait for spring!!

you and me both except I hate this state more for the ludicrous tax rates(hell chicago we get city, state, and county taxes, hello 13% extra charge...), idiotic politicians, and lack of jobs though .

But yes the weathers sucking I've yet to get a good run with my BL buggy I built from parts of other RC's (Turns out its a tad bit bigger than a Jammin X1 and I meant for it to be 1/10th scale [X(])

Yeah man, my work place was dead yesterday so my boss had me shovel the frontway. It really was pointless. That snow was coming back anyways. lol

SWEET!! just took my MBX out today in the front yard. 50F sunny and dry, set up two little ramps and got some jump practice in. thing handles amazing since i swapped out the suspension.

it may just be going in a little imaginary track with two hard to hit ramps but it sure was fun.

im loving that Jammin engine

i love the sound that jumping makes you know the *rrrraaweeeeeeeee vrrrrommm.... woom woom... plop* i like to jump off throttle and do two short throttle bursts to land flat.
