Sheesh, adding weight at the top of the car... (worst place..) hee hee..

You drive it around yet?!
only inside the house, and the front end seems to soft (which causes scrubbage), i could do with some stiffer springs, but i can only find TC size one's, and mine are longer.

finished it at last, not that sure about it yet.. does anybody know of any spring sets which are 38mm in length? it sits rather low (even on the highest post hole) and the front scrubs a lot..
Use Wild Willy 2 springs on it, that's what I had to do because the stock springs are way too soft for it's weight. You'll need to use the smaller sized spacers on the rear though to remove play from the shock.

Ok, so I'm wondering - there are 2 decals with non-English characters in this decal sheet. Looks like 3 characters. What the heck to they mean? (Or can I just not read...)?

I've got a good place to put them on the RX-8, but would love to know what they are....

Maybe you need to get 2 sets of DF-03 TRF shocks, and use the 2 front (shorter) shocks it! Those have threaded body so you can adjust however you want! And DF-03 shocks, you can buy the spring set that gives you hard, med, soft setting..

Wings are still being painted (only 1 coat a day, been busy, and it's cold in the garage! Paint won't dry as well). But I'm pretty close to putting them on!

Early I go online shop because I’m looking stuff to upgrade my audio system of my ride. I found a sporster4 a radio satellite from Sirius I don’t know how to upload the picture of it but you can check it in Sirius/freeradio/shop so that you can see it to yourself because they have this holiday offer right now. Actually I’m planning to get the sporster4 (hope the bonus will come early though). Hope that one help you.

Hmm.. DaulHunter = $179 at Tower..

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXTDL5&P=7

TD and Double Blaze = $130..

So that's $50 difference for that TEU-103 ESC...

I was hoping that the difference would be smaller for package deal... hopefully the price will come down some then.. at $159 it would be an awesome deal! (then use coupon / free shipping on top of it!)

yup that i am.. hopefully it takes off.. we do have one shop locally.. but the guy is a real pain.. and quite behind in the technology.. he'll sell you anything you want.. when it comes time to ask a technical question.. his eye's cloud over.. and 90% of his stock is traxxas.... when the traxxas kids see my brushless muggy.. e savage.. theyre in AWE... i actually had a kid with an emaxx.. stocker..tell me there was no way my esavy was as fast as his emaxx.. "im brushless insanity"... he did change his mind though.. lol.. so ive plenty of stuff to show off and gain interest ive already got a small army of followers waiting for my shop to get open because their tired of dealing with "the other guy" lol...

i figure what the heck.. give it a shot worst that can come out of it is i end up with 18-25 new toys lol..
