Yeah I wish I could say the same about not breaking anything today.... its all good. Just another reason to go to RPPHobby.com (LOL) anyways here are some of the pics from this morning. Yeah that new spot is something very cool. Will have to tell Doc about it cause I would rather run there then the mud hole on the 11th. Lets get that figured out. Oh well here are some pics. And some of the pics of my broken shit..... |

Well Im honestly going to be repairing and ordering from RPP this week. I really want to make it to the G-Ville G6 Comp next weekend. But hell this new spot is like 10 minutes from the house and on my way home. If we plan to hit it during the week one night I can bring my stuff to work and leave it in my car for afterwards. The new spot is a "Perfect" spot for a trail run/walk and video. I would definately be up for really setting something up to make a cool ass Scalin' video. Cant remember his name but the guy who has the non-running SCX10 let me know what you need to do to get it running. I have a few spare parts () sitting around. We can get you up and running for it as well. The more trucks the better Anyways it was a lot of fun and I hope to have them running better next time around. |

Another drive shaft on your honcho..... next time I see you we will take a look at it. I never have issues with drives and everyone knows Im tough on my rigs. Anways, MIP's are the way to go with upgrading your issue. Dec. 11th we will be having another gtg out on Dean n' University but I would like to go back to the park area where the trails are awesome. I enjoy a little mud every now and then but today it wasnt mud...... it was pancake batter. Just caked into every nook and cranny. But either way Dec. 11th should be fun. Dec. 4th out to G-Ville for the G6 Comp. |

yea i started with the rear coming off but i got it to where it has stayed on thru 2 runs now but this time lost the front i noticed the front wheels werent spining so i check and it was just spinning on the axle and slipped right off the trans. im goin to upgrade but i also think i really need to go through and check all the nuts bolts and screws and make sure everything is tight are the stock drive shafts steel on the ends where the set screws go in or plastic like the rest of the shaft |

I believe the part of the drive shaft yoke is metal. but dont quote me.. Take a drill and tap a dimple on the outdrive yokes and the axle yokes where the set screw hits. Then tighten them down on that with some locktite. You should be good then. If not you can always tap all the way through the outdrive areas and then put a longer set screw down into it. There are a few different options out there. |

it was a park, not sure what it was called but hopefully we can get a good set up there and see some progress there, but it is just down the road from the dean university spot

only issue i have with parks and building is you never know when a kid will come through and trash all your work either on purpose or accident but i guess that could happen anywhere

we were messin with the stuff already there, fallin trees and roots and it was awsome and the few things that we would need to add r simple, like a bridge or something but we could use alot of what is already there and just move it to where we would like it
