Your telling me that tennis balls roll? I have never heard that one before!

Anyone got a NIP Magnetic Mayhem (Normal Rotation) Motor they can part with? If so, let me know, and bring it along.

A gravy boat

A knife, Dopey!

No seriously, because they are pressurized they need to be cut in a dylithium chamber. With a special blade similar to carbon fiber cutting blade. It doesn't have teeth just small little cups like a cats tongue.

man we are up to 11 people and some are bringing freinds this is going to be madness. Like 1beatjeep said we are not crawling at the resort but down the beach a little bit. I think this many people may stur up some issues with the resort people.

i guess we can meet at the parking lot but i found a stair acess down the street that puts use a little closer. that way you guys dont have to carry your 20 lbs cars down the beach lol.

just got word that my parts are not coming in till monday so im SOL till then. i got a tlt today and may have it modded in time to mess around with but it no comp car. Im going to print out score sheets so it we be easy for my to mark points and keep track of peoples info. So we dont have any fights. lol

Thanks,
Brian

John, you are gonna whoop me saturday. especially if I can't get steering working. I stripped that servo horn screw last saturday. Problem is the horn is loose and I used red threadlock when I installed it. I guess I need to try the blue not so permanant stuff. I'm heading to the my LHS tonight just in case I need to destroy the horn.

We will be crawling on public land rignt? Not on Resort property? I have a pretty long drive (2.5hr each way) and would hate to get there only to find out the resort is hatin' on us crawlers!

I'm bringing my whole family, 5 of us all together.

It looks like I have a couple dozen tennis balls. I'll probably be picking them up on the way.

Had a great time guys, thanks for the energy you put into it. Felt bad that I broke, but that's what you get for taking an unproven rig out. I did learn alot and had fun, so it was well worth the drive (and the hike - phew, next time I'm going to hire a sherpa.)
