View Full Version : Ask Ziggy...
EAMotorsports 04-19-2006, 10:37 AM Hey Zig,
Ive found that is ok to run left trim in the radio in On-road as long as its the snowbirds as we run backwards there and it sets the car up for all the lefts better....There are usually only 2-3 Right's at the birds!! Not counting the occaisional "peeling" that you'll have to do to remove any hardheads!! LOL

Ziggy 04-19-2006, 08:50 PM EA, I guess that I am going to be staying with the Silvas at the Reedy Race.. but if anything changes I will let you know...
EAMotorsports 04-19-2006, 10:08 PM Ok just let me know....I kinda doubt I am going to be able to go and go back for the nats 2 weeks later....But still not decided.
EA
Ziggy 04-20-2006, 04:05 AM I havent decided either if I am going to run the ROAR nats out here or not either. I guess it depends on how much practice I can get in by then..
Todd Putnam 04-20-2006, 08:23 AM Zig-a-looch: If Rupert Falls Up The Dirver Stand Intoxicated In the Middle Of the Forest, And No One Is There To Hear It, Will He Still Make A Noise?

News Flash: Rumor has it the Pedro Bonneville is retired....
Todd Putnam 04-20-2006, 06:05 PM Word on the street is that Rupey may be announcing the Summer Nats. If so, I am proud to announce that Putnam Propulsion will be sponsoring the construction of a staircase as well as the RFP cooler fund...get your tickets early, they'll be going fast...:roll:
As for the rumor regarding the Pedro Bonneville, please say it ain't so....:cry:
I hope he didn't kill it "moving the roof back a sixteenth of an inch..."

Ziggy 04-20-2006, 11:35 PM Twelve: Rupert retired from golf is that so??
TP: Yip
RcCarpy: I think he upgraded...

Pete2x 04-21-2006, 02:26 PM its a HARD job but someones got to do it
Ziggy 04-21-2006, 05:35 PM Twelve: you are correct...
G-Dizzle: I don't think Pedro has laid any lumber.. I think that he is just moving lumber...
Pete2x: yeaaaa....

ovalnator 04-22-2006, 09:49 PM Zig....up for any 1/8 racing this summer?? Gots a new buggy on the bench
Ziggy 04-23-2006, 12:06 AM Actually I sold all of my eighth scale stuff last summer... I think that the only racing that I am going to do this summer is on-road and probably run the Summer Nats. and the Walts Classic. What kinda buggy did you get?
zig
ovalnator 04-23-2006, 10:54 PM Ofna Hyper 8 Pro
I heard a rumor that a lot of people we're going to not attend the Classic this year...not sure if its true or not....They pissed a lot of people off because they are going to allow Lipos with the regular Nimh cells and such
Ziggy 04-23-2006, 11:38 PM cool deal with the buggy.... no Classic... oh well...
twistedgeo 04-24-2006, 12:40 AM im sure the classic will be live and well.
F-T-Z-I-G 04-24-2006, 01:29 PM twistedgeo: I agree. I am sure that the Classic will be fine.. How is NC? HAve you started racing down there yet?
MIKE VALENTINE 04-24-2006, 03:59 PM zig you in cali this week? How's the tc stuff going?
Ziggy 04-24-2006, 04:18 PM MV: I have been here for a week and I will be here for 2 more. TC stuff is going pretty good. I have ran my sedan 2 times on carpet and my 12th scale 1 time. Right now I am getting ready to practice rubber tire stuff in preparation for the Reedy Race.
EAMotorsports 04-24-2006, 05:23 PM Hey Zig next time you talk to Darrell give him my number. BB said him and Silva had me a room for the reedy.

EA
Ziggy 04-24-2006, 07:22 PM Hey EA, I think that after the NORRCA nats there in 03 me and you had a discussion about scoring system and sanctioning bodies at Classic.....
G-Dizzle 04-26-2006, 10:24 AM Sometimes more pre-load in the side shock springs will help the car clear a big triple.
Hope this helps!
