RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

On a track yes, as you slow down into a corner, with lighter springs up front more weight will transfer to the front giving more steering. For bashing and high speed runs it'll be less effective lol...

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Adding some weight to the front will help add a little more steering. You could also lower the front ride height. Lighter springs and shock oil up front will all help also. :D

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Any "high current" connectors are good. Power Poles aren't very popular in the rc car/truck world but are definitely a viable alternative, especially if you can't or don't want to solder.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Unless he was talking about those cheap little crimps (not sure of the name) ??

But in a Power Pole there is absolutely nothing wrong with a good crimp.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

LOL I've a similiar one as yours Red and I haven't used it for months. Lately, I've been using my 90W Radio Shack soldering iron with a worn-out tip and couldn't be happier :D

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Soldering's a snap once you've learned the knack of how to do it properly. With all my 1/8 stuff I use EC5 connectors and with my 1/10 rc's my preferred method is to plug the esc directly into the...

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Do yourself a HUGE favour and buy the $39. If you buy the $12 ones it'll end up costing you $51 as the $12 are useless and you'll end up eventually ordering a $39 crimper, and that's without...

RE: Sprint 2 Shocks

I have both my Sprint 2's decked out with the HB shocks from the Cyclone and if I'm not mistaken the new TCX uses the same shocks. Beautiful shocks and IMO just as good as the aluminum Tamiyas.

RE: need id of car

Send HPI an email with a pic and see what they say.

Like you say the hubs are odd......must be a pretty old model (late '90's?)

It looks like a hopped up HPI Sprint. The shocks definitely look like HPI.

RE: Does the hobby really need to be cheaper?

One example of how cheap the hobby has become is the Associated RTR 2.4 Brushless SC10 for about $260. To me it's a helluva deal.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

Where'd you order from Red?

A couple yrs ago I ordered a decent sized bag of power poles from powerwerx.com for a decent price. They seem to be the power pole headquarters.
