Thought it was time to start a new Thread for the New Season so lets Kick It off...

All my wings have a motor on the front. Other than that I don't want wings.

Ok lets talk about wings!!!!!!!!!!!

bbq or buffalo style

Either One! Wings or Donuts are the way to my heart.... or possibly get me to look the other way when I check voltage!

Does anyone want to buy a motor cooler? I have one of the STS coolers. It works great but, since TOUR rules don't allow them I won't be needing it this year. :)

GAME ON!!


Didn't mean to double post. Just getting excited I guess!

Mike COT is 13.5/1 Cell Why must you stir the pot? Yes you can run with the 21.5/2 cell last years stuff.

Mr. Racknor had no part in that!!!! LOL!!!!

Hee Hee Hee! How deep can this hole get?


But really. Nobody wants to debate the TOUR rules on NO COOLING OR HEATING OF ANYTHING?
I have been a little bored with this place for a few weeks. And, I'm hungry. :)

Mr. Racknor had no part in that!!!! LOL!!!!

Mike..Remember it's Mr Speedo! :)

How could I forget about Mr. Speedo?????? Somebody needs to make some custom stickers!!!

bbq or buffalo style
I want some more Hot Hot wings like when we went to Nebraska for the race
Those where good
Later

Ok Scott I'll bite I don't see anything wrong with cooling motors at
Mt P. and Bay City tracks We don't want any fires now do we...

It doesn't really matter to me. TOUR rules won't allow it though.

I will call you tomorrow about the other 'super secret' thing you mentioned in your PM.

I went to a garage sale today i got a used plane . I have a new wing . cant wait until we start raceing want to see how you going to get by!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found the thread! Now hopefully I can find time this season to race...

I didn't know the thread was lost.
Glad you are here. I hope you get to race this season also. Even if you can't, we at least need the girls there.

Carpet racing is getting close! I sure hope Big Al has been keeping his reflex's sharp!

How many think we will have a yellow truck this year? I wonder if he is awake yet today?

never learned how to over-charge can anybody help me with this? and how many wings can we have on one (21.5) car?:jest:

Only wings I want to deal with are H(@,@)ters..... Pat are you doing a Wednesday night this month?

I would like to shoot for next wens If enough want to But so Far you and Eric from upnorth is the only ones asking about it... I would like to tonight but it's looking like I might be staying over...

Pat, I bet if you are open next Wed., "....they will come."

i will come if there is a pratice, and i got a few more that will too.

I'll plan on it to Pat. We can do that one thing with the watch-a-ma-call-its for that one class of thing-a-ma-jigs.

I can't make it but I want to know what the watch-a-ma-call it is.

Are those wings????

watchamacallics are candy bars!

I think it is something to do with Scott calling his mother. Probably to find out if she still has that old shoebox in the closet with the secret decoder ring so he can read your setup sheets from last season.

According to Hershey's website, one of these:

http://www.hersheys.com/products/details/images/flavors/pf_Whatchamacallit.gif
could increase your car's "downforce" by 45 grams. It's effect on the driver's downforce may vary.

naw to do that we would need another one of http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/attachment.php?attachmentid=87924&stc=1&d=1249538687 these to get the parts needed to do that :)

why the big controversy over silly little wings? I think they look like crap, and just make for one more adjustment (like I need anymore),and it is one more thing to break. but when you get it in that sweet spot it can make the car handle like a caddy, plus it does save on tire wear. I guess we should all ask ourselves what is best for the b.c and m.p. group of racers and is sacrificing drivability worth being BRL legal. should the majority rule on this? Or should it be left up to a higher power? Whatever the rules are we should all be glad we have a place to follow them.

but all jokes aside when will the track be opend up again for practice i got 4 guys wanting to go down to the city to practice :thumbsup:

I think 21.5 2 cell could run them :wave:

Since my name is Nestle, I'll denounce anything affiliation with Hershey.
I have been beating down my own personal 'downforce demons' for some time now, with a modicum of success. I can lose more than 45 grams with a quick trip to the lou. I'll surmise that most of you didn't need to know that but, I'm all about transparency.

Brian, John H. and whoever else is concerned,
As much as I thrive on controversy:rolleyes:, the 'WING' boat has sailed.
If TOUR/BRL does not allow wings in thier pancar classes, neither will we.

All this talk of wings is going to make me paint up a H(@,@)TERS body for this season...

EBlanchard92, I think the wall chargers are a 140-160 milliamp charger.
so you would charger for 10 to 16 hours, if the battery is discharged.
Since they are trickle chargers you can go longer,but you have to charge for at least 10 hours to get a full charge.

lol. it's a losi charger that came with the car. And the battery is NI-Mi battery
You'll need something better for racing, since we can't wait 10 hours between rounds. :jest:
Whatever you do, do NOT buy a "timer" charger. Get a peak detection NiCd/NiMh charger with adjustable amperage, since you shouldn't go much above 2 amps for these small cells.

lol. it's a losi charger that came with the car. And the battery is NI-Mi battery

Charge it until it just starts to get warm.

but i was told if you charged the battery till it gets warm u over charged it and that kills the cells in the battery. and im going to get a quick charger before October lol just need to save up the money.

my brother and i have a 5 chargers we bring to the track, if you come to a practice, we will have one open for you
