Raptor_MS 10-02-2005, 04:48 PM Parts Availability I would say lies more in the hobby shop owners lap, not the manufacturer.
We here have plenty of parts for our cars, but look around any hobby shops and you would definitely say RAPTOR availability is low. But that's not the case.

Kenny, the manufacturer has to not only make the parts available for the hobby shop...........but he/she has to market the product to increase the demand so the racers WANT the kits and the parts to support them IN the hobby shop. I ran a KGB chassis a few years ago and the reason nobody carried parts is because there wasn't any demand for them.
hacksaw 10-02-2005, 07:27 PM Great job Mike glad to see you get that win and also to JW on his great run and win in stock I am proud of both of you and all the HyperDrive Team !!!!! We had a lot of fun this weekend!!!!!Hacksaw
20TN40 10-02-2005, 07:48 PM Rob, you shoulda seen it! WOOOO! I don't think Mike even knew he won until Humpty told him! And Barry got the B Main win with KC getting second. I heard nothing but GREAT stuff about the KC Racing equipment and it sure helps to see "the man" there supporting his stuff. AWESOME!

MURDOCKRC 10-02-2005, 08:51 PM I would have loved to have been there Lisa. It was just a bad sceduling for me. There was no way I could make it due to me being in the heart of farming season. I kept in touch with with the guys all weekend though and it sounded like things were fast and fun.
MIKE VALENTINE 10-02-2005, 09:36 PM how did this turn into a availabilty thread, drop it guys.
glad to see the Pro 3 ran well @ BMS. hope you all had fun, wish I could have been there.
rush&sonrc 10-02-2005, 09:49 PM congrats to jw and mike for their wins. the hyperdrive cars ran really well up there just was hard for some of us to get a clean run. dont forget about wilson. dammmnn he was fast just we need to tie a rabbits foot, four leaf clover, horseshoe and whatever else we can find around his neck becuase luck wasnt on his side. i agree frodaddy team hyperdrive worked as a team and did well and also had alot of fun doing it. btw way mike and jw how did you like your bath.
hacksaw 10-02-2005, 10:01 PM Hey Kent thanks for the pit and all the fun we had!!!!See Ya Soon!!! Hacksaw
GILYHANTREE 10-02-2005, 10:59 PM congrats on the win jw and mike looks like since i didn't come some of my hyperdrive buddys needed buckets full of 4 leaf clovers at least i know i am not the only one with bad luck now
traffic-racer 10-03-2005, 02:49 AM ive been racing hyperdrive chassis's for over 5 years now and have been 100% satisfied. i got the new pro 3 about 3 weeks ago and for some reason i cant get the car to "hook up"? im having problems in the center of the corner. the right front loads up and really upsets the car. i run at the world of hobbies in cincinnati ohio. its a flat track very smooth and close to the snowbirds layout ,a little shorter. ive tried numerous setup combinations and im running out of options and i really dont want to stray from hyperdrive! i hope someone out there can give me some advice i would greatly appreciate it thanks
JW Housley 10-03-2005, 11:36 AM Hey dude, what tires are you running and what are you doing to PREP them?
Kenwood 10-03-2005, 12:10 PM Read other HELP ME POST.. BSR tires.. we went through the exotics mixing it up... then switchedit to white/grey setups.. IMHO the issue goes a little beyond tires...his # of laps is pretty far off to just be a tire problem..
20TN40 10-03-2005, 01:41 PM Rob, I know what you mean. This race took my last week of vacation to be there. Cell phones were buzzing around the track all weekend so I know everyone was doing their best to keep in touch. I wish I had been able to keep my eyes open long enough to do a simple run down each night but I needed sleep! LOL
Rush: Whit Wilson was a ROCKET! Even after his problems in the A Main, he kept driving that car and WORKED his way back up to fourth. It was awesome to watch! With just a glimmer of luck, he could have made that a really tight three way battle for first place. But Johnny B only had one tiny little touch of trouble and he drove a great race. He worked hard all weekend. But Team HD can look for Whit to give them all they want next year!!

This may sound stupid, but check the way the balls in the front end are installed.
Kenwood 10-03-2005, 07:48 PM I did not look at that closely on tims car BUT there was another guy there with a new pro3 that did have the balls in backwards...LOL..Just found it funny that you mentioned that after seeing it this weekend..
RULE ENFORCER 10-17-2005, 01:58 AM :wave: ....................................
20TN40 10-17-2005, 03:29 AM Wow Rules, maybe you should have watched the race instead of listening to second hand information. Humpty sure didn't FORCE Andy into anything since Humpty was as close to the outside wall as he could get without running OUTSIDE the track. Did you hear about the BLUE wreck on the backstretch that took out Donnie Logan??? Maybe you should try putting a car on the track instead of doing your Monday Morning Quarterbacking...and quit hiding behind a fake screen name. It makes you sound like a cry baby.
I wasn't at the race,but I've been around Humpty enough to know that he would be the last person to force someone off the track,he's just not that kinda racer,and besides he's got too much to lose to be doing that kinda crap.I have to agree with Lisa, sign your name if your going to be throwing out accusations.
EAMotorsports 10-17-2005, 12:00 PM Hey Rule Enforcer. Humpty gave Andy room on the inside in 3 and 4 and Andy clipped the appron shot up the track into Humpty and they both hit the wall. Andy has raced enough at that track..you dont have to give him a mile just a car width. He made a mistake. You need to watch the tape again.
Also the G11 has been available for a while. MSA has already had some and sold out. They have been on the web for sale too. Know your facts before you start running your mouth.

rjm70 10-17-2005, 12:20 PM Well here we go again somebody is scared to sign there name. I would call you what you are but it will just get deleated. I'll leave that up to peoples imagination.I was sitting right there Donny hit a bump comeing off of 2 that upset his car and turned him into the wall. That started the mess on the back strech. Just racing nobody's fault. Humpty gave Andy room Andy just nicked the yellow and it shot his car up the track. I've raced with humpty for a while now he would never do anything like that. Why are you hideing behind a screen name sign your real name. Untill you do you have NO CREADIBILITY WHAT SO EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carpet Assasin 10-17-2005, 06:39 PM Hey Mike Russel,
Congrats on the win! Maybe me and humpty need to take you racing in our trucks the night before each nats mains from now on? Im sure humpty will be up for round 2 next month in Sandhills. I got the diesel all ready for some late night highway drags.... LOL Nice job again!!! See ya next month!
Mario...
Kenwood 10-17-2005, 06:44 PM Wait a minute brother!!! I need to know if there is going to be diesel drags at the sandhills race.. I want in on this action.. He he he.. 2004 BANKS powered f250..Clackety clack.he he he
20TN40 10-17-2005, 07:01 PM Now that some of the classiest guys in RC racing have had their say, it looks like Rules has crawled back under his rock. Not that Humpty ever needs any help taking care of himself, but I'm impressed with the responses from guys who've raced against him and have an eye for talent. Ya'll ROCK!!!
Carpet Assasin 10-17-2005, 09:10 PM What kinda numbers you pulling with all the upgrades to your truck. I have a 05 duramax. 605 / 325 from the factory.

Humpty 10-17-2005, 09:32 PM Kenwood ....You cant hang with the ole Black F-150....We reached speeds of nearly 100mph thru the back lot of the sleep inn ...At least 50 across the end and back up to 100 down the front lot and at least 75 thru the Breezeway....FUN FUN FUN...
Humpty 10-17-2005, 09:36 PM Thanks to everyone for the Compliments....And I hope everyone that does know me knows how I drive...And everyone definitely knows that if anyone has a Problem with just show your face somewhere and we can handle it in person.....
Mario ..Round 2 at Sandhills ..Microtel...Lots of curves around that place...lolololol
Humpty 10-17-2005, 09:46 PM http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_12_2.gifhttp://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_12_18.gif
Beero 10-18-2005, 12:15 AM LOL humpy, you're too much
20TN40 10-18-2005, 12:19 AM I'll call the weather service and make sure they issue a "Hurricane Humpty" warning before the Oval Masters! And if ya'll are lucky (and Humpty has been around any hot dogs!) the wind will be blowing AWAY from where you're standing! LOL
Kenwood 10-18-2005, 07:47 AM Ive not had it on a dyno since... BUT I have had it to the drag strip... mid 13's so far.2wd launch>>Not the 4wd launch like most guys with big trucks will do. Im sure it has more in it but I dont feel comfortable pushing it much past that because it sits pretty high..If I were to blow a tire or something Id be dead for sure.. I did not put it together to be a race truck.. Its main fnction is to haul the 8 second turbo trans am around.. he he he...
Humpty I dont know about 100 in a motel parking lot...LOL...I would not last long in prison for vehicular homicide... LOL
Im not 100% sure If Im driving the truck down or not..There is a group of us going from cincinnati so we may be renting a van...But you know how that goes..Usually means More vehicle punishment than driving yyour own stuff...LOL
erock1331 10-18-2005, 09:14 AM ....And I hope everyone that does know me knows how I drive...
HACK, lol
Mario ..Round 2 at Sandhills ..Microtel...Lots of curves around that place...lolololol
