LITTLEAL 1 04-10-2003, 04:54 PM When is the kit with the clicker kit avalable Barry Hill 04-10-2003, 06:41 PM The clicker shock will not be red. The team kits comes with the std bottom plate and both rear steer bottom plates. The team kits with clicker shocks will be available as soon as I get them. I have been trying to get them for about 3-4 weeks. I was told last week they would ship last friday and monday when I called to check, I was told it would be this friday. At this point, your guess is as good as mine.LOL!! I will post on here when I get them. thanks barry Danny B 04-10-2003, 07:30 PM CRC has always had great products just hard to get :( LITTLEAL 1 04-11-2003, 06:53 AM Thanks. I also had a question that I saw on another thread agout front ends thar never got answered what does putting shims under or on top of the front spindles. thanks in advance MIKE VALENTINE 04-11-2003, 09:43 AM LITTLEAL 1 putting shims under the steering block will make small ride height adjustments, just make sure while doing this you don't over preload the springs take a shim from some where else just don't keep adding more. adding shims to the top of the steering block changes chamber gain. schmelme 04-13-2003, 01:38 PM Anyone know of any good pics of team car o700. Hyperdrve site is all messed up. Tossing between this and KSG have handled the KSG not the hyperdrive. EAMotorsports 04-13-2003, 02:10 PM email me at eamotorsports@comcast.net and Ill send ya some of my team car. eric anderson MIKE VALENTINE 04-13-2003, 03:33 PM HERES SOME PICS OF MY HYPERDRIVE http://www.geocities.com/mikeyvalentine/HYPERDRIVE0700/ jflack 04-14-2003, 03:10 PM Hyperdrive wins The Mississippi state oval championship at SCU in Jackson, Ms. It wasn't the new car, just a old fast 510BT... I didn't see any reason to be any faster! The track is 379ft tri-oval, high banked super fast track....best lap was 6.196 sec @ over 40 mph in 19 turn 4 cell! I ran 2 38 lap runs in practice, but couldn't get a clean run in qual.....I ran a 36/4:02 for TQ in 19 turn class....Won the A-main with a 36/4:03........Thanks to the great cars from Hyperdrive!!!!! Hyperdrive Man 04-14-2003, 03:13 PM What holes is everybody running their rear pods in offset to the left or just the stright pod,, what about the rear steer plates witch one is everybody havin good luck with on the carpet tracks.. Racin Steve 04-14-2003, 03:19 PM For high resolution pictures of my 0700 ... http://www3.sympatico.ca/steve.nancy/carpics.htm Steve Salvas Team HD :wave: MIKE VALENTINE 04-14-2003, 03:33 PM Hyperdrive Man the offset standard pod thing, you will never get all of us to agree, we just agree to disagree. you can be fast either way. i myself have never found a track where the offset pod was faster, easier to drive yes but not faster. the rear steer is easier any place where you actual drive straight down the straightaway don't use rear steer, any other place i would run some. try the 1/4 degree first, then go from there. MikeM 04-18-2003, 10:52 AM Anyone running them yet on the 700 and what are good starting points, oil, spring, piston if they have different ones, clicker setting. Using 50wt and a #3 piston now on short flat tracks. MikeM 04-19-2003, 02:13 PM hello MIKE VALENTINE 04-21-2003, 08:43 AM i haven't had a chance to run them vary much, but my first thoughts on them are vary good. still playing with oil and pistons, i'll keep you guys posted. mike Barry Hill 04-22-2003, 02:59 PM OK guys, I have a product update. we have 2 new items for the velodrome: 1) a narrow battery tray for the 0700 part number BT-7045 retail 26.99 2) a narrow 0500 sse pro chassis, this is the old style pod not the 0700 pod part number VC-0001 retail 83.99 3) we have the CRC shocks finally. 4) the SSE PRO 2 team kits are available, but we do not have boxcovers or manuals. we are waiting on some cars from a magazine shoot to do the boxcover. thanks barry hill BRDRACING 04-22-2003, 03:42 PM Barry, I just ordered a SSE pro2 from MSA, will that come with the CRC shock? I ordered it Friday (04/18/03) It was going to Carolina Outlaw RC thank you brooks Barry Hill 04-22-2003, 09:30 PM Brooks, thanks for your order.

Love my 0700, and looking forward to running it w/ caps this summer:) MIKE VALENTINE 04-29-2003, 12:09 PM rcavenger your welcome, any time. i just wish i could have been out there to met you, and a few others that i only get to talk to on the phone or just on this board. great job on the tq, sorry to hear about the radio problems, thats the worse thing that can happen imo. all other things (wrenchs) we have some control over,but not that. are you still running the slider or did youupgrade to the one piece chassis. just wondering. i'm still using the slider. mike rcavenger 04-29-2003, 12:14 PM slider, 6 cell tray, all elec on the front and left of the tray. after switching back to the med front holes, short rear, the car was awesome. had TQ by about a half lap. Yeah, no sign of radio glitches all weekend til the 2nd A-main, then every time i went by the drivers stand it took a hard left. switched channels and took it out for a few laps after the 2nd main, ran fine. was leading the 3rd main when it took another hit 1 min from the end, so i pulled over to let Dusty Kemp go ahead, last thing i wanted to do was glitch in front of him and mess up his nat'l championship run. I will be at the Snowbirds, so i will see u there, if not sooner, Mike.... MIKE VALENTINE 04-29-2003, 12:25 PM rcavenger what other larger races will you be attending before snowbirds. any of the paved oval nats or other stuff. rcavenger 04-29-2003, 01:35 PM Mike, probably no other large races. might try to hit the Velodrome in Indy for their big race. only have 5 days of vacation left, and my girlfriend is 'reserving' those...LOL. going to race some close to home (Storm Steel - banked asphalt oval). on a side note...any other new upgrades in the works for the hyperdrive rides? i have some ideas, simple, but pretty trick, especially for carpet. MIKE VALENTINE 04-30-2003, 04:12 PM i know how you feel about vacation days. have a good time at the velo. never ran one but hear great stories of how fun they can be until you flip it over. what tires did you wind up runnin? rcavenger 04-30-2003, 04:15 PM not sure yet, but does BSR make a 'hard as bricks' compound? LOL. i know about the flipping. guys choose wayyyy too hard on the front springs, that tends to make the car catch air in the front. any new ideas in the works, Mike? Eat the Worm 04-30-2003, 06:23 PM HEY MIKE, ARE YOU AND THE WIFE PLANNING ON COMING DOWN TO DELAWARE IN JUNE FOR THE STATE RACE? IF YOUR ARE SO SO ABOUT COMING AND THE HOTEL $$$ IS THE REASON LET ME KNOW. I'M GONNA TRY AND TURN THE HOUSE INTO A HOLLIDAY INN EXPRESS FOR THAT WEEKEND AND SAVE SOME TRAVELERS SOME $$$. MAYBE WE CAN HAVE AN R/C ORGY.LOL PICKING UP AN 0700 THIS WEEKEND. I REALLY LIKE THE 510 BUT IF I DONT BUY A NEW CAR EVERY FOUR MONTHS OR SO I'M BORED STIFF. GIVE ME A CALL IF YOU GET SOME TIME OR ARE EXTREMEMLY BORED.LOL 1-302-399-6777 :eek: BILL AUCHTERLONIE id38 04-30-2003, 06:55 PM a rc WHAT?????????????????? have you seen some of the people we race with yuk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you said orgy and stiff in the same post hahahhaha Dwight Smith 04-30-2003, 08:56 PM BSR definately makes a Velodrome tire! :thumbsup: Hyperdrive Man 04-30-2003, 09:50 PM Hey barry or mike,, i took apart my rear diff to clean it and i took it a part in a hurry then had to leave so know im stuck with a diff all apart and dont know how to assemble the 2 spacers by the diff nut witch one goes first and second??. Also mike what are you running for rear springs on flat carpet tracks and slightly banked tracks?? And what about electronics mount them all to the left?? Thanks.. MIKE VALENTINE 05-01-2003, 11:24 AM BILL A thanks for the offer, we do plan to attend the race. hopefully i have a better showing then the last couple times i was there. do you know if there will be a mod class this year, also what will be the 19 turn rules arcor only or any 19 turn. glad to see your picking up a 0700. i'll give you a call. rcavenger i got a few little things. Hyperdrive Man the aluminum one goes on first small part to the bearing, then the orange one cone part towards the bearing, then nut. rear springs really dependent on how wide the turns are. wider the infield the stiffer the spring red or golds small infield silver or blues or a combonation of them. same thing goes for banked tracks. the heavier the spring the slower the car will react and seems to keep the car flatten in the turns. Curt12 05-02-2003, 11:39 AM rcavenger, In the earlier post you ran "short rear" at trackside. What is that? I have only had my 700 for about a month. Thanks. rcavenger 05-02-2003, 11:41 AM i ran the middle wheelbase holes up front. in the rear, there are 2 sets of holes for the T-plate, spaced appr. .1875" apart. i ran the T-bar in the shortest position, T-bar furthest toward the front of the car...leaves the wheelbase appr. 10" rcavenger 05-02-2003, 03:12 PM Hey Mike V, how 'bout giving us all a baseline setup for the 0700 w/ caps, since the outdoor tracks are starting to open? i was thinking centered pod, 4 cell tray, slid forward so the extreme rear of the tray is flush w/ the back of the chassis, centered up on the front widths to start. reciever pack placed where the 5th cell slot is (forwardmost slot), speedo to the right of the T-bar, towards the rear. i always seem to forget what a good starting ride height is w/ caps, so any suggestions there would be appreciated, along w. a good starting caster angle for caps. Curt12 05-02-2003, 03:40 PM Thanks for the info! That sucks about you're radio, you had everbody covered last weekend. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
