$249 for Losi MF edition. Selling for $110 at stream because I hate working on it after every freaking run. Definitly freaking PRICELESS. LOSI = repair another part after the race.

Not last week. The losi is up for sale at stream (see previous post). I hate the diff and the fact that REQUIRES wrenching after every run.

MMMMMM. TC's

3 days

Let's hope to see some nitro guys race this time. I will have one soon, so I want to see this class take off.

Anybody showing up early? I know Rusty and Billy won't mind any help setting up. I plan on being a good sailor and not drink too many adult beverages on Friday night. Should be there 8:30 ish

Because of the rain this past weekend, we will be running asphalt this sarurday.:thumbsup:

Bodido
09-05-2002, 04:14 PM
I'm certainly down for some pavement. I've put a bunch of work in the TC3 here lately, none to my off-road stuff.

I've even got some new lexan to sport ( Please don't hit me). :D

Hey Slaprock:

Watch out for that lapped traffic. Hahaha.

Shonuff
09-05-2002, 05:39 PM
bodido, are you sure you want to run the new body

did some measurments, rear shock tower inner hole is the same as front outer, camber link holes are about .25 inches higher in the rear

Bodido
09-06-2002, 09:22 AM
I broke out the calipers myself. :thumbsup:

The roll center changes are pretty radical with the tower spaced up. Maybe a little too radical. I might have to start looking at other front hub carrriers with vertical ballstuds just so I can have a little more control of where the roll center is.


As for the body.... It's better to look good than to run good.
:rolleyes:

I just tell myself that when I'm running slow.

Shonuff
09-06-2002, 11:03 AM
guess i need to go get a shocktower

Tony

Bring your xxt if it's ready to go, but bring your T3. We'll help you get it straight. Jady, Ryan, and I know the T3 inside and out, and have lots of spares laying around.

Do you need new shocks completly, or do your shocks just need a rebuild with new seals, oil, etc?
I have everything you need to get the shocks right, if the bodies and shafts are still good.

For all you TC3 driver;
Cleaning my car sunday I found a rock larged between my rear right A arm and the chassis. So I had about 4 droop on the left and 7 on the right. No telling when it happen:confused: All I know that it costed me 24 laps, watch out jady.:D So it will be a good idea to check that area between heats.:thumbsup:

Shonuff
09-08-2002, 02:55 PM
....or maybe even 25.....

4 and 7, so it looked like youre car had hydrolics, minus the fuzzy dice

violator423
09-08-2002, 07:33 PM
yeah the xxt is ready to roll i think if the crappy esc hold up if not i might just switch out my dully in my b3 the t3's rear shock leaks like mad and one of the fronts leaks slightly i rebuilt it twice with no luck i need to get another rebuild kit for it i guess but i want new shocks either way lol and the cvd's drove me nuts so right now im leaning towards the xxt to race with on sat and ill let the t3 rest till i get her right i hope i dont suck my first time racing a losi lol i would be very gratefull if any of you guys can give me a hand during your free time at the track with my t3
also i was gonna give rusty a call and see if i can come out friday since its my day off from work and recondition the track i walked past it while i was watching the on road races and its realy bad grass is taking over any one wanna help give me a call mabey we can et some food or something and do a lil volenteer work i just called the shop ( forgot its sunday) and left a message for rustyt to callme and lmk if its ok to come work on the track so if anyone is intrested lmk email me at violator423@cox.net or on aim at violator423 thanks cya on fri or sat:wave:

so Jady when you gonna come race with the big boys in 1/8th scale..Matt

Bodido
09-14-2002, 10:09 AM
Jady already has a GT he won't run. He fears the nitro. :rolleyes: I kind of fear the fuel myself, but I'll be getting that monkey off my back soon. It looks like Ryan and I will be running gas truck at the yard.
Matt: Since you're running 1/8, it would be cool if you can pit with us (Me, Jady, Ryan, and Joe). Me and Ryan could use a little advice hear and there. You were there at my one and only attempt at gas truck. :cry: Wasn't pretty! Ryan's never raced gas either. We'll give you whatever pit help we can, of course.
