You need to get a hold of the new Orion motor. 20 runs before you need to do anything to it and that is with a 8X2.

Very few places, Great Planes and Horizon don't have any listed in stock yet. I would think the only places would be overseas, but the places I know of I couldn't even get them there. They put out so many to make them legal for some event and there haven't been any since is I think how the story goes.

There are places over here that have had them. Most were sold at and still will be till about mid jan from what I have heard from talking to people. The endbells are made in Switerland and all the arms are wound in Cali so it takes awhile to get all the parts in one place. They never had to make so many of them to be legal you don't have to do that with R/C stuff like real cars. They decided to send out all the motors they had done already rather then to wait around to do full shippments. I know my brother got his through Stormer Hobbies but that was before Cleveland and I know they are all out of them now.

I haven't been checking this board too much lately. E-mail me at work and I'll see it, but whenever you want to come up we'll run it. I think the plan is once we can all get our hands on the new orion motor to run it all the time.

Hey guys. I live in Indy and I come to Fort Wayne to visit family once or twice a month. Right now I only race at a local indoor dirt track Planet RC. I am looking to get a pan car and was just wanting some input on what most guys at your track race with? Do you guys race 4wd like the xxxs and TC3?
Thanks for the any input.

Sorry for the redundent post (also in CRL), but...
Don't forget that doors need to be open on Sunday morning by 7:30 a.m. for the CRL race. Practice and sign up closes at 9:30 and the first race is to hit the line at 10 a.m. In the event of a snow storm, the Ft. Wayne track and I will determine whether to start 1 hour later to be fair. If you have any doubt about getting there berore sign-up closes, please call ahead and register.

Had a great time racing with you guys tuesday. :thumbsup: Probably been 6 weeks since I got to race because of working on the slot track and other projects. Somebody went home with tire tracks on top top of their car :eek: when I launched over em at the end of the straigtaway in the main but other than that I didn't bang into stuff to bad. ;) Thanks for coming to the raceway tuesday, I'm really looking forward to racing again. Don't forget we got a big road race coming up march 21.

Hey all,
I'm kinda "new" to racing and will be joining you at the track within the next few months. I just bought a car and would like to know if my BC112C Tekin battery charger will charge 3000 NiMH batts? If not, what kind of AC/DC charger would give me the "hot" setup. (besides a Competition Electronics $5billion charger that Karl pawned his car for...)

Hey Wally!! Yeah you heard right. I'm Back!! Mark may not be far behind!

See ya soon!
Dan

Womack and I knew you two would be back as soon as we put those controllers in your hands! Good to have you back! The 112c will work for now but charge the new 3300s at P0 and 5 amps. Watch their temperature. I bought a decent newer charger that was DC only and spliced it into the back of my 112 to power it. The 112 has a 12 or 14 amp power supply in it. See you guys tomorrow night. You be joining us at Peanuts II afterwards for the customary wings and beer?

Dunno if I can make it for a couple months. My wife is going in for a major surgery on Wednesday. I will be taking care of her and the kids for 4 - 8 weeks. But, seriously, I did just buy a TC3 Factory Team car. So, I will be back soon!

We'll try to make it tomorrow to visit though. Maybe wings even!
