Default The weekly who ran what post

OK GUYS, WHO RAN WHAT??????????? AND WHAT HAPPENED?

A couple of buddies of mine from the forum here came over with their tornados and we fooled around in front of the house with them, put some byrons 30% in them, they like it, lol. We had some fun, been a few months since i ran anything.

230-250 when your running it, not at idle or easy running. sorry to hear your having problems bro. you just have to hit something the right way to have it snap and cold weather doesnt help either.

Crappy cold weather here. I ran the Monsoon a little bit yesterday trying to get my tuning issues worked out. Leg got sore after a bit so I had to quit and relax. I think I got it tuned good now though.

Yeah I am getting used to that. I think I am pretty close to pre-tuning to the weather before I take it out. lol....but like always, It takes a little more tuning before it is running good.

lol, I'm hoping for it to reach the 40's.
Took my volcano full throttle at a littlte jump that i accidentaly did a frontflip on earlier, and i bent my rear lower arm pin, bent 2 shocks, cracked the body, and slightly cracked the diff case. Then i bent back the rear lower arm pin and the 2 shocks into working order, and drove it again today and i tore out my spur gear. So i'm out of commision till i get my direct drive tranny.
