So is Nmrcc going to purchase the "attack dog" padded training suits for the marshals to wear while these things are racing?

SPRING FEVER!

No need for spring with the 1/5 scales, they go great in the snow. Just don't stop or they spin all the snow out and sit framed out, well at least with paddles that happens.

No flip flops at the track! That's a safety hazard.

Buy that then put about $300 more for conversion and electronics and you have one sweet ride.

Damn Tipp, that sure is tempting! But leave it to me to go and buy the conversion b4 the truck, and not have but one or two other guys to end up getting one also!
Besides the fact that I ordered a Losi ten-scte 4wd today!!! Woo-Hoo!!

The thing is, I've had my heart set on a team Durango desc410r for about 4 months, and since they were just released and all, I was going to buy that instead until this morning, when I found out the jerkoffs made it to use saddle packs! SADDLE PACKS!!! WTF? I've got Dang near a dozen regular lipo stick packs, and I have no experience with saddle packs, and for the 400.00$ price tag on the kit alone, there is no way in hell I'm gonna buy two or three sets of saddle packs just so I can use them in one vehicle!!! Damn, that really irritates me!!!

ive never had to shim the collet out jbod, that longer collet i gave you should work for ya, the other one looks like a losi collet and will put the flywheel to close to carb or will not tighten down with clutch nut. they do make spacers for the collet if you really need one, but dont think you will, i have more of the longer collets if you need another one

Gather round boys, it's time for a moment of silence, followed by a prayer............................................ .................................................. ........................ Now pray with me.
"Our heavenly father, who art not racing, let the sun warmeth the earth. Give us this day, our daily table tops. and forgive us our bad passes, as we forgive those who screw up while marshaling us.
and deliver us from the indoors, for thine is the rhythm sections, the dirts and muds, and the high speed backstretches forever and ever AMEN!!!!"

Had to go to a thicker collet and shim to get spacing right.
I put flywheel on with four different collets and all four the flywheel hit the carb, so I found one for the savage that had a thicker taper.

That's a good prayer but time for a new one, I know you have plenty.

thanks for the offer, but if we dont do the school ill wait for a warm day and use a paved parking lot. less stress on the motor and no dust... i like to keep the engine free of dirt during breakin...
