yea hopefully it was just a rumor that he was killed.

btw, i wasnt at socal on friday. aj, kyle's sister, and kyle's dad told me about it.

The incident that occured is a harsh reminder of the world some of us live in. Hopefully, the "homicide-rumor" is just a rumor and all were able (and will be able) to walk away from what happened Friday evening.
Not to take away from the attention or concern from the Friday night gang violence, but I had a blast today (Sunday). 4wd Mod was great and I look forward to coming back.

Kyle and I shouldn't have been in Novice. Kyle had never raced onroad before and I had only raced with a really nice Xray. Kyle decided to sign up for novice and I signed up for it too because I figured the TC3 with a front diff would be slow... It was kinda slow at first, but after some setup changes and time on the car, both kyle and I should have been in intermediate.

Whats wrong with brushed motors?

I'm Erik btw, and why aren't you a kid? If you're not a kid, then what are you?

Default Hello LosiRacer,Killer89, and RCguru

Hey guys,

Yes, it is me. The only Jason D you guys know ( I think ). I did tell JasonB that I would be under this name, except for the number 7. I had to include the number 7 to be unique.

Where have you been , LosiRacer ? I was watching the race on Sunday, and actually wished that I 've brought my buggies. The 4wd class was missing talents like Killer89. A friend even said: " Hell, you would 've been a contender !"

Killer89, I can't get my XXX4 dialed. I am faster with my B4 Even a newbie that I 've never seen before said : " you're better with your 2wd, the 4wd was all over the place." I think my front foams are too soft and my receiver is glitching. When I hammer it on the straight away, it would get squirelly and requires steering adjustment input.

RCGuru, I should be there this comming Saturday, you can give me back my scissor then.

Jason: A solution to the XXX4 being to squirelly is to buy a Lazer ZX5 from me... Seriously...

the yokomos should be pretty nice. but remember, its open belt. one pebble, rock, or watever can catch in there..SNAP! you should try something like the bj4 or the zx-5 since they are shaft drive. from seeing jason (different jason) drive his xxx-4, its nice and fast, and i like it. the only thing is sometimes, he seems to break stuff alot. (not saying jason doesnt have good driving skills) but yea. get the bj4 or zx-5, you will be alot happier

yeah i have had the bj4 already, i think it may be possible to close in the rear tranny covers on the yok. with a little fabrication and lexan or even simple AE chassie protect sheet . i hope to know by friday if ill be picking up a yok or not,
