The track is totally redesigned every 2 years, we may make some minor changes this year, but the track will remain in the current configuration. Usually the amount of changes is based on how many people come out to help with the track on the track days in April...I think we should focus on this year for now though, considering its only August! Maybe get some practice on this layout, before start worrying about next years, just a thought...

This layout isnt BAD, just the JUMPS are ROYALLY hosed!! we also gotta start doubling up the pipes..... if i can get to the track this week ... maybe saturday... and someone can get the truck, i'll redo the jumps myself..... all i need is a wheelbarrow, the compactor and a few shovels.... anyone wanna help??? i do have a prior commitment with my fargon Jetta - busted the shifter off the rod - so i need to get that done 1st..... but that is a miracle that MUST happen.... i wanna destroy my bullcrap tabletop, and add some wh00ps there instead, because that tabletop wasnt built with enuff dirt as it is.... i'll prolly need water too.....

-ToneIf you need more dirt for the tabletop, ok, but the track should be kept in the same layout until after the season, restoration work is ok, but don't change anything.

Its too close to the challenge for track changes, this has been an argument for some time now, and it always ends up with the track staying the same until next year...I think the track will be like new when it gets the new dirt/face lift.

Tone, I can come out and help if you're planning on doing it Saturday, I was going to stay down here this weekend, but that'll give me an excuse to go back up that way...you shouldn't do it yourself, there should be more than enough people to give a hand, just on this message board alone.

-ToneIs it the Oval car, the RC10L3O? I used to run blue rears, blue left front and a blue/orange right front when I ran my 1/10 scale, at zeppelin, marshals and dirt runners, but that was years ago, I don't tihnk they make the blue/orange anymore...you could probably get away with a green left front and a blue right front...In 12th I run green lf, blue/orange rf and white rears...Anyone have any other ideas? I haven't run 1/10 in years.

Nickheh, i hope it isnt a dying class.... goddamn it!! i'll run stock for sure tho.... thanks nick, i appreciate the help... i'll prolly buy like 100 bux worth of tires (if not more) one of dem automatic tire truers, and all that crazy stuff....
as for it being the L3o (oval) i dunno.... it is a used piece, picked it up at Marshalls Yesterday.. has a Cyclone, a Novak XL Reciever, and looks like the guy ran it in that Spec Class (6 cell spec pack w/ the spec motor).... looks REALLLLLLLLLY cool tho.... me like me like!!!!

OK first off, that post witht banana phone was tone again,

i have a couple of things to ask,

Does anyone know if thos trisonics pull a lot of amps, or something like that, becasue at marshalls, i got lucky to finish the heats, my batteries just dumped, the guy i was racing against was running a 9t and i had a 14t and he still had more juice then i did after the 5mins

Also do the springs for the losi buggy and truck the same, or are the truck ones bigger then the buggies

btw i cant use the question mark key because my sis dumped water on the key board, i know i left out a few

and thanks tone for that aviator, jackarse

Sounds like you have either a gearing problem, timing problem, charging problem or a battery problem.

The truck springs are the same as the buggy rears I think, they used to be on the xx seriers cars (and they're all the same diameter).

For tires at marshall's I can help you out....most guys run a black right front and green left front, with grey rears. Not sure on which tires for the dirt runners carpet.
