i have never ran a one way but I did try a spool. All I can say is it is in my box now. it is a different feel I think for me with a diff I can drive the piss out of the car. I ran the spool for 2 quals and I hit the lottery lol

I tried a spool once, once! The on power steering is the same as a oneway but the turn in straight sizzucks! But don't listen to me I think brakes sizzuck too!

Brakes do suck. means your slowing down to much hehehehheehhehe

I hope this doesn't jinx Y'all but I'm hoping for rain tomorrow since I can't get a f'n baby sitter! I was really hoping to do well in a points series for once but that requires actually racing all the races! The old ball and chain is just going to have to find another hobby that takes place on a different night. This every other Fri thing defies the laws of physics by actyally sucking and blowing at the same time.

Yea, I am doing the babysitting thing tomorrow night too, lol. But I wouldnt be racing anyway. After a few weeks though, I will never miss a race again lol.

Yea, I was fully planning on going up there tonight. But then remembered today is our anniversary lol. Guess I will hang around the house lol.


Won't be long though then I will be on a mission.....not the car but you know.

long live the worlds greatest rc driver The Brad Jessee. from here on out I'll paint all my bodies like a bowling ball

Thanks guys,
I really had fun racing with you all.
A wise man once said, "you either got it,
or you don't". I didn't not have it so i figured
it time to move on to a more constructive hobby.
One where you can get a return for you money.
I hope you all the best and i will probably be around.

"The Brad Jessee"

brad is going to win this last point series and said he was going out on top!!!!!!!!

I Was Just Looking At The Points And I Am Tied For 3rd With Doody??? It Figures I Don't Take The Touring Series Serious ,miss 2 Weeks And I Get Third, I Race My But Off Last Point Series And Finish 4th.lol Now That's Fuinny I Don't Care Where Your From

Live it up while you can :lol

I will be back next month :lol

Well that 20 lap TQ AND WIN HELPED ALOT TO GET ME IN THE THIRD SPOT. THE ONE WAY IS THE ONLY WAY FOR ME FROM NOW ON. I THINK EUGENE HAS BEEN SNEAKING TO THE TRACK FOR SOME TEST AND TUNE THESE LAST 3 OR 4 WEEKS????HUMMM X-RAY!!

Well it turns out every bearing on the back of the car was bad or so dirty it couldn't roll free. Problem solved now so look for company on the 20th lap this week!

Just a quick announcement: The Florida State series is racing at Full Throttle Raceway on August 21-22.This is the Worlds track and we are going to have some of the drivers from around the world racing there .There is also going to be a 1/10th pan car class with 6 cells gtp (Wide) body and stock motor and 4 cell with 19t with narrow chassis TC body.The track is great,plenty of traction,and it's right behind the warbirds museum.

where is everyone

Some people quit racing forever. The rest went to oval. :eek:

Hi Brad, I see you're still looking at the threads. Me too. Do tell, What is a more constructive hobby?

Some people quit racing forever. The rest went to oval. :eek:


The bank acct is just taking a break for awhile lol. I will be back with a vengeance so people better look out in about 3 weeks.

Will be starting oval too, but they better look out for me in that series for other reasons lol.

Question:

Do we want to try a 19T class again for touring?

If so, are we setting motor limits (manufacturer)? Or any 19T?

If we stay with stock....do we have to run a Monster or any stock is ok? Just thinking about experimenting a bit when I come back lol. For some weird reason, some of my fastest races have been when I tried something completely different than what the "expected" was...gear ratio...suspension setup...etc.

Just wondering.

Eugene

how about an all around series for touring. We'll run stock one week 19t the next and open mod the third. It'll definitely give us a reason to wrench and change setups and may even make some signifigant improve ments to our driving!

One of the reasons I got out was that it is just to much for the stockers to handle. They just burn up .unless you cut them after each run the motor will suffer and be gone by the time the main comes. Everywhere else in the world 19 turn is the lowest class in touring car. noone races stock anymore,There is a reason, think about it... If I were you guys I would get togather with the remaining touring drivers and get 19 turn giong. They can handle the stress better than the stock motors and you should be able to run the proper gear with out strraining the motor to much.

hey guys i started a thread on the oval side about the new saturday night racing thats up comming,so please check it out and let me know what ya think.thanks bear

There is a state race at Full Throttle in Kissimmee on August 21-22. You can run stock-19t or open mod (with the worlds best).If your burning up stocks somethings wrong somewhere.Unless you are using the green machine motors.The only monster I've burnt up was because something got caught in the gear and jammed. Now if you want less motor maintance you'll have to wait for the V2 stock and 19t motors from Orion and peak. Or you can use the conversion kits available soon (but not roar legal- but at club races you could use them).

So.....any thoughts on 19T this series?

So.....any thoughts on 19T this series?
yes you all should do it. save your stock motors from the torture :drunk:

I want to. Even though I will need to buy a motor lol.

I'll run 19t if you all will let me run a brushless system

Thats ok with me. I will be back this Friday!! lol Lets all get together and figure out what we want to do.....19T or stock.

I really want to go to Daytona and RPM but wont be able to make it this weekend. Next month for sure. Think I have about to decided to hang it up on the full size vehicles for a while...maybe a long while lol. So will be racing every chance I get.

You guys should check out the list of drivers from around the world coming to the state race at Full Throttle.Rumor has it the Losi guys and Associated might be testing there new cars??Where else can you race with these guys on the same tires C27's on such as awesome track at a state series race? The worlds entry is $300 per class so the series is a bargain at $25 a class.First come first serve for power and pit area for $20 (pre regrister).The list is under RCTech.net- Electric On-Road- Preworlds warm up.

Bill thanks but no thanks I have been doing alot of thinking lately and one thing I now know is that touring cars with rubber tires stink. I'll stick to the foams. which means rpm and snowbirds!!!!!!!!!!!! have fun and good luck!!!!!!!!

Call me lazy call me not that a good of a driver but if it ain't local I ain't racin'. But i do sincerely wish we had carpet in Jax. I just don't have the time to travel.

I really wish we had a carpet track here too. I am quitting one of my other hobbies here pretty soon lol, so I will be able to do SOME traveling but not alot. I just want to race on more than one track lol.

So Ray......19T?

you got the chance to goto rpm for the focar oval race

Dave that's a great answer- Just one big race a year and going to RPM.Full throtlle is just 2 1/2 hours away- and its a super track. Racing on Rubber tires makes things alittle more equal .But when the state race actually goes to RPM it will be on C27's. Dave I'd get as much practice at RPM as I could get.....................While your racing over there the worlds best will be at Full Throttle.Besides all the new stuff that has not been released yet will be in testing for the worlds and available by christmas.
Oh I almost forgot Dave you can race against "C" main Chris T. with his Corally.But he made the B main in the nationals with a car(RDX) he got a week before.Lets see how you do against him.

I just cant make it this month....I want to go in the future though. I should have the finances back in line and able to travel by next month.....heck, when I get paid this weekend it will be the first check since May lol.

Yeah man it's 19t or I'm selling it or trading for a 10l4. I figured out why it was so loose last time get this, TOO MUCH DROOP. Too bad it looks like tomorrow won't be very accomadating for racing! That's okay though I will be there for the inauguration of the third Sat program assumong it starts next week, xpss?

so Bill you are saying that the state race @ RPM will be indoors on the rug but you will have to run cs-27s???

yes sir barring there is no hurricane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am bringing a 19T and a stock, so will see what happens when we get there :)

I think I was going the wrong way too last time when I was trying to get the push out....man, its only Monday :( lol.
