Yep another great week of racing. Just need to get some good lipos to keep up with the top guys. My goodness the car that won did 3 or was it 5 laps more than me?!! LOL...I heard some were running HIGH END lipos and Mardave motors (25t)??? It's great to see someone come into the class and race us al...

I am going to be heading up there for this but I cannot seem to find any information. Anyone have the info on this? It would be greatly appreciated! I need to start looking up their rules and what-not. And get an registration form off to 'em. Thanks!

Well, I had a great day's racing. Boy do I love this class of racing. I love the driving on the edge of grip roll too. I got the 3 Racing shocks and they worked quite well. 17 pounds...CHEAP! Well, my first few races I was having horrible glitching problems with my stearing servo...I was swaying aro...

Well, I broke down and bought one at 3am last night. I got the Tamiya Porsche 911 GT3 Cup VIP TT-01E chassis. I should have it Friday and build it Friday eve into Saturday. It's gunna be a midnight oil burning night. I can see it already. No sleep but all "RC Adrenalyn". So fingers crossed...

Can we please stop making more classes! It's burning a hole in my Dad and I's pocket! Well, I am setting up my dad's TT-01 that he bought from the club. I was really deterred from buying such a car but now that I have actually had my hands on it, changed out the radio to 2.4, adjusted a little here ...

Yep, another fantastic year at the GP. Gunna start practicing for next year!

PS: Don't forget your car!

You are awesome. Don't share any of my tweaks to the car. Trade Secret! But honestly....LOL....9th place trade secrets are not worth that much. Ahahahahhahahah...

I forgot to get my Modified red blue and white car from scruitineering. Could you please email me at MikeyTheTeacher@aol.com to let me know that you have it. Thanks!

Hey, Thanks for that! Will get the Xray car. I was about to go associated. I just went to the Mirage website...seems you cannot just purchase directly from there. Where do you go to buy your stuff directly. I usually go to demonpowerproducts.co.uk

I would really appreciate some help in deciding which touring car to purchase and have a few questions and info requests. 1. Which car? (would like good product support incase it breaks) 2. To lipo or not to lipo? Should I get a car that is compatible with both NIMH and Lipo so that when I visit oth...

Never run an 8.5, but for a 6.5 you'd want to be geared approx 10.2 overall. Internal ratio of a b3 is 2.4 so assuming it's the standard 81t spur gear, that would be a 19t pinion. For an 8.5 you'll need to be geared a little bit higher, so if it were me I'd try a 22t pinion to start with. Never run...

I am trying to help someone out on getting their B3 up and running for the summer season but I am totally unfamiliar with Associated vehicles, won't be for too much longer. My friend has an 8.5 Novak non-sintered motor and will be running it on 6 cells. I would like a conservative gearing recommenda...

Can you use a diff in the standard mardave class?

Thanks for that...

Brushless I will be running 15/48

27t I will be running 13/48 or 50.

What gearing are you guys running out there? I just got the Mardave Brushless System and a Reedy Stock Star 27t motor for the standard class. I would like to know how to gear them both. I have always been racing a G2 motor in the standard class not knowing I could also run a 27t motor. Any help is g...
