tang
BudBartos 03-13-2007, 10:19 AM Tang>> same rear spoiler I have to look at side dam lenght but You can only have it on left side.
Are You in for Freddies this sat?
DAVON 03-13-2007, 06:49 PM Cool - This should be a good series! How about a random road race thrown in :)
I'D LOVE TO HAVE A ROAD RACE OR TWO :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
BudBartos 03-13-2007, 08:13 PM It's all Oval. Set up the car and leave it alone all summer.
In the past We have not had many turnout for the road race in the summer. So it's all OVAL is season.
TangTester 03-14-2007, 07:11 AM Hey Bud,
Can you bring a Mid motor coversion kit for me this weekend. I think a new car for the summer series would be good.
Thanks
Tang
K-5 CAPER 03-14-2007, 07:58 AM Tang,which power plant jones,do you plan on running in your car for the summer series??
TangTester 03-14-2007, 08:10 AM K-5
have not decided yet, I may go brushless. I do like the 300/370 for easy of operation
But I need a new car, the current one has almost 2 years on it. I think it has earn a retirement.
Tang
K-5 CAPER 03-14-2007, 08:14 AM Tang the old ride should find a place in the new wing of the BRP hall of fame!

Tang
I will be brushless for the summer....no more working on motors :)
Freddie's Hobbies 03-14-2007, 08:56 AM Are we allowed to run wings on the stock cars for the summer ovals ? :confused:
TangTester 03-14-2007, 09:32 AM Mirco,
I hear you there, no motor work. But the 300/370 are little to no motor work.
Which brushless are you going to run?
Bud, Which setup are you going to run? Brushless or Brush?
BudBartos 03-14-2007, 09:49 AM But Tang You have to oil the bushings one and a while on the 300/370 motors.
I have not decided yet I like the 370 size motor. I'm going to try brushless this weekend, On the road course :tongue:
Another NOTE: You can run personal transponders at Freddies.
BudBartos 03-14-2007, 09:53 AM Are we allowed to run wings on the stock cars for the summer ovals ? :confused:
Freddie >> 1 1/4 " tall spoiler measured from the trunk deck lid. On wedge it is 1 1/4"from body surface not molded in spoiler.
K-5 CAPER 03-14-2007, 09:54 AM Who has the best big block motor these days,and where do you find it??
Micro_Racer 03-14-2007, 09:59 AM Tang - I am using the Castle Creations Mamba system. I have the Link software, which is VERY easy to use, not to mention cool! I have the following motors:
1. 4200Kv
2. 5400Kv
3. 6800Kv
4. 8000Kv
My testing has found that the 5400Kv or the 6800Kv to be the most "controllable" and "stock like" motors.
Freddie's Hobbies 03-14-2007, 10:02 AM 8000kv or bust is what I say :thumbsup:
Micro_Racer 03-14-2007, 10:03 AM I have not decided yet I like the 370 size motor. I'm going to try brushless this weekend, On the road course :tongue:
Bud - I will bring my other brushless motors....you should be able to use it with the Tekin brushless ESC -- if you want to try them out...
Micro_Racer 03-14-2007, 10:05 AM 8000kv or bust is what I say :thumbsup:
you will be bust :lol: ...
Freddie's Hobbies 03-14-2007, 10:14 AM you will be bust :lol: ...
Just make room as I go by :thumbsup: Beep ! Beep !
K-5 CAPER 03-14-2007, 10:14 AM Is this correct??? 6 cell 16d is $15.00...4 cell 300/370 $10-$15....Brushless system will cost you ?????? Honestly don't even know,and all 3 are going to be as competetive as the next????????????Just guessing,but I do not think you are going brushless for under $20,does this sound accurate?
Freddie's Hobbies 03-14-2007, 10:22 AM Is this correct??? 6 cell 16d is $15.00...4 cell 300/370 $10-$15....Brushless system will cost you ??????

I sell the Comp X for $ 119.99 BUT that is both speed controler and motor. Plus I dont have to wory about working on the thing all summer. Its there put a drop of oil on it and I am done. I am looking at simple. Plus I already had it sitting in a draw for over a year :dude:
Micro_Racer 03-14-2007, 10:34 AM Brushless System - the motor's are around $50 - $60, and the ESC is around $75 - $80. Castle has a package deal for around $120, depending on the motor's Kv.
Today - I look at the $$'s spent on motors and GTX ESC, it is around the same price, if not more. Plus the minimal cost of motor spray, comm drops, and extra brushes.
In the long run, I predict that the brushless system will cost less to run a full series. OHH and 4 cell's are cheaper than 6 :)
BudBartos 03-14-2007, 11:19 AM Micro just has 3 brushless motors and a laptop to tune them and a cord to connect them...... :tongue:
I like the $8.00 370 :thumbsup:
I bet SG1 will still beat us with the stock motors and those team scream cells !!!
Freddie>>> That No Fear sticker on the front of your car has Me worried :eek:
Freddie's Hobbies 03-14-2007, 11:38 AM Freddie>>> That No Fear sticker on the front of your car has Me worried :eek:
I should make litle push bars for it :lol:

but your GTX is about $150.00 so it is about $158.00 for your motor and ESC set up...and you don't need a laptop to tune the Mamba, it does make it easier. And we all remember the programing debacle we had with the GTX :p - stupid blue light....
Wayne would beat us with a rubberband and paperclip motor.
BudBartos 03-14-2007, 12:47 PM Yes but I have 2 of those. The blue light thanks slim !!!
BudBartos 03-17-2007, 07:50 PM Well the winter series is over. So We have several weeks of till the first summer series race. If You need info the flyer is on first page of this thread.
