I hope gout can make it!

Also, are you still interested in Mayhem Ultimate Comp Wheels or did you get rid of all crawlers?

I'll think about the BBQ sounds fun! I just got all my little issues sorted out with my 22buggy, I got the TLR kit installed on the XXX-SCT, and with luck I'll have a few changed done to my SCTE I really want to try out on the track. Not to mention I have some new tires ordered I want to try and see how they work.

Man I just sold all but two sets of wheels for my Wraith.

[johnnyh66]

I forgot my batteries at home.
Then
I forgot the F'n Bastard at HobbyTown!

[CrawlinMike]

Holy flipping cow! I've brought the wrong remote before or left it at home but forgot a whole Rc somewhere? U musta really been zoning out. Been reading that legalize medicinal marijuana thread too much lol

[johnnyh66]

yeah, I was feeling really spacy when I left... I even texted Sweezy thinking I was texting Zero...

What now thinking of a buggy too? Geesh! I barely get a 2WD SCT put together and people are getting 2WD buggies!!

[johnnyh66]

doubt I'll get one but I wanted to follow them on ebay... just in case.

I did order some 2.2 revolver's for my Slash... I'm going to run some fat tires for the Trash Slash Bash & bbq. Maybe I should get a body too...

Trey, Rick, what do you guys think, do I need a new body?


EDIT: I kind of want one of these little guys... seems dangerous to run these wheels on it though.

Hells yeah! Zero, you and I need to get 22 buggies to match our SCT's! Ha. I drove my 22 today for the first time and holy crap...it was soooo much easier to drive on that course than my slash, even with the LCG chassis. Not that I'm good at it or anything, I need a lot more practice, but driving a rig that's made to race was night and day over the slash. Cool little truck. I think I'll be racing in that class this Friday. My slash may sit out a week.

[gottwins?]

I see the losi associated divide beginning. This should be interesting.

[johnnyh66]

Hey Chuck, can you make it to the bbq next Sunday?
I'd like to get that chassis going since you're not going to use it.

It's a whole different ball game outdoors though. I was really having fun outdoors but, now that we raced indoors because of the rain friday, I just wish it was winter already.. I enjoy the indoor much more. Not really excited about going back outside.. Although I'll still race. If your gonna race, you'll have more fun if you run both classes. More run time = more practice = more fun.

Does anyone else think they'll ever be able to make friday night racing? I heard there will be saturday racing every other week in the winter as well but, mostly wednesday & friday nights. It would be cool to see more of you guys out there.

I'll text you Johnny when I'm done with my training to see where you guys are at!

Yup. I'm planning on it. I've about got the body finished, and the truck is all buttoned up, runs well, setup adjustments, etc. Just need to do up the solid case 2S batteries, since I really don't have any.

Might not make it every Fri, but gonna try and make it fairly often. Def. can't do Wed. nights though.

Worked on the 22SCT, the Bronco's interior and body, and the "secret weapon".

[gottwins?]

I can't make it Sunday. Possibly meet up saturday?

Good point. I was just a little frustrated with the slash after I drove he 22 all day. It drove like a POS in comparison. I thought I was starting to get it dialed in...no longer do I think that.

What was the name of those tires that folks are using on the carpet again?

Edit: I remembered...Dboots Nanobytes...tower hobbies has them for $40 a pair? Yikes! Seems a little steep. I think I'll pass for now.

[Die-Laughing]

Yeah Trey, just use the most pin style wheel you have.. It'll be fine.
