Guys,

When I hear some blokes sprouting technical terms and doing their best to high brow newbies about theoretical applications, whether it's on 2 strokes (don't start me up on superchargers, for God's sake)
and suspension/geometry, etc.

[&:][&:][&:][&:][&:]

I do have a chuckle to myself.

These are toy cars, man. Period.[X(]

If you are racing for a world title, or a Sheep Station, then splitting hairs will be of benefit.
For the rest of us who have an RC car, let's face it..........we bash.

So I found this video actually filmed by Chrysler Corporation, and I couldn't help myself but add it here.

enjoy, and don't take the RC life too seriously.......................you'll get an ulcer, mate

I understand full-scale cars quite thoroughly and I was still confused by that vid.

I agree entirely, by the way, with your sentiment.

I'm a helicopter mechanic, which is far more complicated than your average car, and my team and I don't even use that jargon. I laughed through the whole movie. Very funny.

Agree with OP

Apart from this bit

I'm a helicopter mechanic as well, and that's how we explain things to our pilots [8D]. Lol, not really...

Haha. Very funny. Yeah we do that too. I work on the H-60. Which bird do you work on?

Lins

Whoa, I just work on little fleas, not birds, compared to that thing. I'm endorsed on the MD500, Bell 206 series, and AS350/EC130. We also have 205's, 212's, and a couple 212 Singles.

Have you heard about "dubbel fustasjupphengsforkoppling"? We have it here in Norway, but no one knows what it is

Dirty_Vinylpusher

Haha no never heard of that one.
I'm know there are similar expressions in Swedish but I can't think of any at the moment.


Also, wasn't there a skit with Rolf "Fleksnes" Wesenlund and someone else where they talk about how many carburetors a certain car has....?
Or am I getting my stuff mixed up there?

Lars from Norway

Hey, the word "doble fustasjeopphengsforkoblinger" origins form "Marve Fleksnes", lol! That man is genious! The skit you are talking about i cant quite remember, i'll have a search on the 'tube for it

Dirty_Vinylpusher

Lars, check your PM

wolfie1

Dirty_Vinylpusher

A couple of anglegrinders, a microwave oven and a laser lens from a CD player should do it hey?

Mudgy
