I have got a question for you guys. Can we run any tire we want in touring stock and 19t? Or is it just takeoffs. If it is just takeoffs. Do they have to be the premounted tires or can I just buy the rubber and buy differerent rims? Since I have been told the rims on the premounted takeoffs are plastic instead of nylon.

You can run any rubber tire.

Sorry you're stuck on the boat. I was stuck at the power plant and couldn't make it to the races too. What boat are you on?

Greatr racing tonight between Bear and Dave P. . Dave set a new track record with a blistering 21.6. Bear got the victory and drove a great race. Dave was just sick fast but couldn't run Bear down. WOW what a race. as for me I broke in both qualifiers and finished 5 sec. behind John Hart in the B-main who also broke twice. My night sucked

P.S. Never by a JR radio what a piece of sh#*!

Yep as Bryan says you can run any rubber tire wheel combo you like as long as they're regulation size(heighth/width)but beware, Some of the HPI wheels allthough they look great are made of what appears to be polystyrene plastic and they'll shatter with a hard hit. I've seen the centers of a few of the takeoff wheels get knocked out but those that have had that happen will tell you it was a pretty viscious hit that did it.

Customarilly foams(I know you didnt ask this)are used primarily for indoor carpet racing or outdoor nitro sedan racing and as such are pretty much frowned on for electric sedan at hw.

last night was a blast. The mighty TC3 showed it's power in the main ripping off a 21.6 and a few 21.9's. but when it was all said and done I won the battle but Bear drove a clean race with the losi also ripping off some 21.8's and won the war. it was a blast. yah butts that would be cool.

as far as my set up goes it is still the same as I post a few pages back. just put new tires on that's all.

it was good to see a couple new faces out there I noticed that we were missing the Eugene's??????

what up guys????

03-27-2004, 12:54 PM
I was babysitting lol. And a little, ok a lot, tired from a pain in th ebutt week lol. About 10:00, I was like crap I wish I had gone out there lol.

Congrats on the times and record, thats about, ohhhh, say 4.5 seconds faster than my fastest time out there so far lol.

hey guys hope everyone is doing great. Just a couple of things, first thanks for helping me out since i am a new guy to the track and hobby. Another thing, running stock touring what color spring should i be using and which holes should i be bolting to on a tc3 where the shocks go. Inside outside or middle?? The car i have came with bronze in first and silver in back. Could i get the car to handle tightier if i change springs?? thanks guys

davepull
03-28-2004, 01:00 AM
here is my current set that should be a good base line starting point for yah.

front
f-2 block 4 deg losi carriers and losi steering knuckles
camber links down and in
shocks in on the arm middle hole on the tower
blue spring with #2 pistion and 60 wt oil
6 droop

batteries forward gearing is 96 spur 34 or 33 pinion with a monster.

rear camber links down and in 2+2 block 4 droop
shocks out on the arm middle hole on the tower
gold spring with #2 pistion 40 wt oil

.063 sway bars front and rear

this set up makes the car react pretty fast but provides plenty of steering.

Mazda 6 body

bsically I run everything just llike the book says with the exception of the springs rear toe and oil

I got a mazda 6 today. Hmm? is that the secret? Darn! I'll have to keep looking. I also painted all of my shock springs pink so now no one will know what I'm running. Dang it! Neither will I.??? :cool:

Chris, I'll make sure to bring it. Just got finished w/ a hackfest practice session. Where'd everyone go now that we've switched Sundays to accomodate the schedule in Georgia?

Whats up Dave ???Now that "P" is running 4-cell stock you want to run with us? I'ts cool I hope this will be an everyweek thing. I like racing with ya. Sounds like your getting serious with the Mazda body though. According to "p" that is THE body to run. I trashed the BMW I was running so I am off to buy a new one( Alfa or Stratus 2.0). That hit I took with the glich in the first qualifier cost me alot of $$$. I sad it once I'll say it again JR radios SUCK
