Default the who ran what thread...10/10/09

hay yall...like it says, what yall run?

myself I ran my rxb a lil last night thinkin I was going to race today...no races and today is pretty cold, wet and miserable...I guess that time of the year is on its way back...
unless I come up with a late model I prolly wont be running much until it starts to warm up next year...but gives me time to retool and get ready for next season...

I do have an Idea...not sure if it will fly....I beleive the hutch indoor oval will be racing 1/8 late models..sprints and edm's...I believe the edm's are like a rc10 like conversion....I sent a few messages to folks to find out there is a 1/10th late model class or if anyone is or can run a 1/10th onroader with the edm's...iffin I dont get me a 1/8th I might be able to slap a late model body on my rapida and run it with the edm's.....not sure how good it will work but its a good idea I be thinkin..lol

Well, I was going to run my rustler in the street but I think the spectrum (took out of the losi) stuff I had in there is going bad. It's going like 30 feet and then just stopping. I walk a little closer it gets a signal but it's glitchy.

alls I can say is my dx3s better work flawlessly (and it has) or I'm gonna be one mad hatter.....if it developes problems it will be the last....I believe ya give somethin a chance, especially if it has the following like spektrum...but come on, if you pay $300+ for a radio it should work flawlessly

I have 2 dx3's and 1 dx2, once repaired they seem to be good.  I am liking our 2.4 setup, so far its great on the 1/5 but i havent used it that much yet.  Once the show is over i will be beating it to death!!!!

I was looking at redcat racing.com and I was just laughing at the fact they put an sh 18 on a desert truck. Redcat does make decent rcs but himoto gives the extra edge. Was too tired to run my rapida pro today. Next weekend with friends. My friend Joe doesn't believe my rapida pro can go 50-60. I guess ill have to prove it to him.

We have a .18 in one of our new desert trucks, its pretty fast too, has a center diff, we also offer a pro version, it comes with a .21 and pb suspension.
