RE: Simple T-maxx question

Only mods on it are replacement cv shafts, metal instead of the plastic ones. And a better brake that I installed. Other then that it is a stock 2.5 with a new 3.3 engine.

RE: Simple T-maxx question

BTW, its a 20 tooth BC and a 70 tooth spur. Would I be better off with a 7s tooth spur?

RE: Question: What do you do when you crash?

I try to replay the image in my mind over and over again. Try to figure out exactly what went wrong, then see how bad the damage is and if I can fix it. If not then I mourn for my loose.

RE: Add color to your motor.

"When you crack or sever a discbrake line on a mtn bike you can say goodbye to the paintjob due to the DOT 3 or 4 fluid being so corrosive."

RE: My airboat(snowscoot)

The 3 bladed prop was/is useless. It would't even move the boat. I wonder if I 9x6 3 bladed one would work better? Or am I better off sticking with the 9x5-6 two bladed prop??

Hmmmm
