RE: best price for a new LST2?

You must have purchased the last one they had! They're now showing it as a backordered item. $580 is just about the cheapest price I've seen yet for an LST2.

RE: First try at a body/ other pics of my LST

Doesn't look at all bad to me....especially for your first one! (You should have seen the first body I painted - total disaster!) You learn what works/doesn't work by trying and tweak it for the...

RE: REVERSE ONLY...

Just some food for thought -- Much of the knowledge I've gained about this hobby, I've learned either from doing, or watching others do. I've witnessed a set of forward/reverse engagement cogs...

RE: Help stripped screws! any options

On the topic of removal...if I happen to strip a screw, I've definately found my choice of "fix" to be the dremel method. With a little care taken in making the new slot, I've definately had a...

RE: Racing: Day vs. Night

Good call on the color of the body, Tigger. I suppose that would make a difference with night visibility of your vehicle. I like the setup in the second photo - looks like the over/under ramp setup...

RE: Applying brake leads to throttle opening right up

You'll probably want to add that "little problem" to the description then. I had the same problem with the stock servo saver. Wouldn't go to full throttle, but would throttle back up some when...

RE: POLISHING

I've used my dremel and a buffing wheel attachment, along with a liquid polish designed for silver/aluminum finishes. (Be sure and wear eye protection). Great results. Then rub it with a polishing...

RE: Racing: Day vs. Night

Nice looking track! Makes me wish we had more sanctioned racing events around here - especially some at night. A few of us usually just get together at the track outside our LHS for a little...

Racing: Day vs. Night

For those out there that race... do you have a preference whether it's a daytime race or one at night? I guess some races might start during daylight, but by the time the A Main rolls around, night...

RE: Clothes hangers for wheel hex pins?

I used to use coat hanger wire to replace drive pins in my electric buggies way back when. Most of them would eventually bend, and a couple of times they bent so severely that they chewed up the...

RE: More Tamiya Re-releases?

Well.....I picked up a Frog for myself and a buddy of mine bought a Lunchbox. We set aside an evening for assembly. Man, I had forgotten just how much FUN it is to build from a kit! We took our...

RE: Whats with the placement of the Roto Start!?!?

Good thought lstracerx. I'd definately check/charge the starter batt. Even when it seemed strong, I've had a couple of times where the roto start just wasn't spinning fast enough.

I've also...

RE: Slipper Clutch Question

Yes, the two big gears under the gear cover are your spur gears. Part of the tranny output shaft is sticking out of the center of the spur gears. The adjustment nut is on the end of that shaft (the...

RE: Slipper Clutch Question

If you're speaking of the slipper clutch on the output shaft of the tranny - it is loosened/tightened by adjusting the nut on the outer end of the output shaft. From the case out, you should have...

RE: LST2 idle high

Hey, we were ALL newbies at one time. I remember my first nitro. It was a Kyosho Baja Buggy with the Quick Reverse Clutch. The QRC was a complete piece of doo-doo, but that's a topic for another...

RE: BAD GAS

I had the same 'air escaping from the fill lid' scenerio from two different tanks. On my primary LST, I was able to tighten the hex screw just a little, expanding the o-ring enough to seal again. ...

RE: BAD GAS

Good tip SUNA

jjaus - sure sounds like it could be fuel related, since it'd been a couple of months your fuel was sitting. Wouldn't hurt to go out and get a quart of new nitro just to rule that...

No, not me...[X(]

This topic has been touched on a couple of times, but I thought I'd reiterate it for those new to nitro - and because we're running in colder months now.

RE: Is this a good fuel?

Here is my experience...

My first nitros were Traxxas, so I used Traxxas Fuel. When the LHS didn't have Traxxas fuel in stock, I would buy whatever else they had on hand. Some of those options...
