Default New Bright Forum?

I notice you have alot of very interesting and helpful things on here. As well as a section for the Nylint crawlers. Why not one for the newbright ones? I mean theres alot of guys who have done some pretty nice stuff with thiers. I mean it's no major crawler and it pales in comparison to the expensive ones. But If nylint why not newbright? Just curious.

Please, for the love of God, NO! If New Bright, then Lego. If Lego, then die cast. If die cast, then.....

The newbright trucks and the Nylint crawlers are in a completely different class when it comes to out of the box rock crawlers.

The Nylint's hands down spank the **** out of the newbright trucks when crawling.

The only thing a newbright truck is good for is the scale bodies.

In other words, there is no way in hell that we are going to add a newbright forum right now.

The nylints are better out of the box.....fron what i hear. But the newbrights are easier and better to customize. There's guys puttin 4 links,3links 4 wheel steering all sorts of crap on these. A cpl guys are getting over 80° of flex on their axles. Sorry we can't have tons of money for a "REAL" crawler. But for $60 and basically no extra cost to modify it's a great thing to play with. As well as get started into r/c crawling. Some of you seem to think your on some sort of pedistal with your **** not stinkin......but god damn......dont be stupid about it. A simple no would have sufficed.

Yup, pics and vid on the rocks (not milk cartons and couch crawling) are needed to prove these things are worth a darn. So far I have not seen any proof.

Theres a few forums here

http://rcboards.com/eve?cdra=Y&s=4066057222

Lots of pics and vids there.

From the little I read there, it seems you have to do quite a bit of modifying before they perform well.

The mod's the newbright needs to perform "well" can all be done for free to very little. I mean why all the hostility towards them. I mean **** we're all trying to do the same thing. Just on different levels.

We are not being hostile (let us know if you really want us to be), we are simply stating facts.

There is nothing wrong with being a newbright hugger.

if anyone wants one, there is a free one in a dump in Orlando Florida.

No I'm not kidding. Fortunately I was taking a **** while designing it and when I finished dropping the kids off at the pool I wiped my *** with the design and flushed.

I bought a $6 "Xtreme Rock Machines" rig from Wally this week.........................can we get a forum started just for them?!?!?!

I am pretty sure that after I put about $400 in this thing, it will be as capable as a semi-modded $45 nylint, yet less than a $80 TLT.

WHERE IS THE XTREME MACHINE LOVE??????????

wow i have only seen one nice new bright! but then again after all the moding and locking and cutting, and new motors and gears, its ready to compete with a stock nylint...

i have an xmod that could out do a stock new bright!
it is true new bright does have the nicer body but you could always go to a thrift store and pick up a used new bright for dirt cheap
