R/C Madness in Enfield, CT. Its great to have an indoor practice/comp spot for when the weather isnt good or just to hang out. Quote:
I love these springs, back to back comp weekend for this rig it felt smooth all day. Quote:
Had a double header weekend for this little shafty and took two podiums. Saturday was an hour an half trip east to Boston area. Brought home a second place over some very competitive MOA's leaving me behind just one XR. Sunday/today was our local sportsman comp so unplugged the dig and I was good to go. 3 courses full of digless shafties is definitely a great training/tuning tool for bettering yourself. I was able to pull down the win scoring a -4 with second going to a GC3 rig and a +26. 3 things I can say with total truth ...... I am wooped ..... it was 2 days of awesome competition and crawling ......... and I am truly happy with this new setup | |||

Nothing big to show but got some pics from yesterdays comp at Light House Point in New Haven, CT. Gorgeous weather prevailed after a week of rain. Havent changed to much on the truck over all from what I been running. I did get lucky to find some JConcepts wheels to play with some wideners. I used the .350 hubs on the front to bring me out to 11'' overall, the rear with no hubs kept me about 10''. The truck felt much more stable on off camber approaches and sidehills. Hope ya enjoy the pics ....... Last edited by Robbob; 05-23-2011 at 07:02 AM. |

Wish I could have gone, got stuck at fire training. I like the look of those rocks! Your rig looks completely different with those wheels, how did you like the front end being a little wider?

2 Years 3 months and 4 days ago started my Losi LCC life. Today was our season finale for our Pro series and my final run for her. Ive got to say thanks to the tons of info in the Losi forum, to Jake for his time spent in this area and R&D work on the Losi parts, EeePee for his pages of test and tunes and a big thanks to the cad man Rob_b/CDW for some insanely awesome parts. Cant say I was having my best today, definitely feel I got some luck blown my way on the third course. I came into today with only a 2 point lead over an impressive XR I just needed to keep my nose clean. When the dust settled after a fast paced 3rd course my little bug body LCC brought me home a 2nd place for the comp and a 10 point gap that kept me in first for the series. Last year was a good year in our club with my buddies LCC taking home the series win. To back it up the following year with another LCC taking the series really shows the fight they are capable of putting up. 2012 is gonna be a fun year for me to battle and keep the title but for this little Losi itll be a sportsman year. Oh yeah, took that series title down today too. |
