Thanks all!!

Hi Paul, Good to see you with Thunder Power :nod:

Paul, why do you list both Xray and Hudy? Aren't they the same company/people? Or....?

Thanks!

The Hudy's own both Xray and Hudy and they are manufactured in the same building but i think its technically a different company. or maybe Hudy is the manufacturing company and xray is the marketing. im not really sure.

Hey Paulie... cool to see ya with Thunder Power. Jim is a great guy as well as everybody else at TP.

Looks as though Mr. Fairtrace and myself will be running Mod wit ya at the Birds. :nod: Be nice to us. :lol:

Hey Paulie thanks for coming out here to the KO last weekend and especially thanks for the coffee!!!:)

Thanks Schreff, awesome to hear about you guys running mod!. i get the feeling that you will both be just fine.

No problem, see at the next one!

Hey Paul, Good luck with the new sponsor.

What motors will you be running now ?

Ouch, Paul.
Could it be that hudy is the tool making company and Xray the car making company. It may be a marketing gimmick though. You know, you can't race for a company other than Xray and have Xray tools on your table. You can have Hudy tools though.

grammAr!! grammAr!! With an A!! :lol::lol::lol:

Hey Mr. Paul, you are a damn good racer and wanted to congratulate you on your new sponsors. I know I am just a regular racer and all, but I figure I jump in and say grats! :smile:

Will you be in Maryland for the 2010 ROAR Nats in March?

Hey Paul, congrats on everything. I'm taking my T3 out this weekend for the first time, going to try my hand in Mod :eek:. I'll be reaching out to you soon, until then, stay fast.

with foam tire sedan what are some of the ways you would try and get more mid to exit steering with 4 deg blocks? can easily just put on some 6 deg but i like how the 4's feel. car has good turn in and good on power but of power :cry: thanks. alicia says hi

Hey all: Congrats on the new sponsor Paul. With your move to thunderpower lipo will you still be running trinity/epic brushless or switching that as well? Since you use futaba radios have you tried out their new brushless esc? Thanks for the info and good luck in 2010 :spidey:

Congrats Paul. You'll love the Thunder Power batteries! What do you plan to run for motors and ESC :sneaky:?

-Korey

why dont you ask him if he wants to run ORCA :D sheesh.. dont have to beat around the bush. :lol: ;)

Thanks!, Im not really sure yet what motors i will use. we will see.

True, Hudy existed long before xray as a manufacture of tools and car parts for rc car companys. then came along Xray, instead of making it the Hudy car they started Xray.

LOL, Thanks on the support!. I will not be at the Carpet nats in march, Im getting Merryed (spelling lol) in march so i will be missing that one.

Cool, good luck. talk to you soon.

Hi Brandon, you can extend your ackermann post forward (the knotches), and that will give you more on power steering, also you may try tightening up your front diff also. those two things were always pretty effective for exiting the corner. Tell Alicia i said Hi.


Hi, right now im not really sure whos motors i will run in the future, though i did still use my trinity mods at the last race. And I have not tried the Futaba speedo. Thanks, you too. Paul

yea the batterys are definately top's. Honestly right now i have some NON Motor/speedo things going on. I dont want to get spread too thin, so ill let things settle down a bit before i consitter working with more companys.

LOL.

Hey Paul. Congrats on your new sponsors. Also congrats on getting married. Hope to see you soon.

Congrats on your upcoming marriage!

LOL. I was just giving you a hard time since it had already been asked a few times. Congrats man! Good luck on your new ventures.

-Korey

Paul,

What motors are yo gunna use?;)...Thought I would get in on it...LOL

Back off Baker, Paul what motors are you going to run, just post it here, I promise I won't tell anyone else.




(Just jabbing you Barry).

hey
 

cool man, congratulations on your rc success! I haven't racing in years....

I'm in Orlando, FL right now. you coming to the snowbird race? Tell Stogie I said hi

Be sure to put up a teaser post when you pick a motor sponsor, so we can all gather at 5pm and crash r/c tech like the last time Barry switched :lol:

That was awesome wasn't it!!:lol:

It must suck to be you. :lol: Good luck with the upcoming marriage. Does she know that you play with toy cars? :D

Hey Paul congrats on the new sponsors and marriage. Can you invite me to your bachelor party:lol:. When is the next time you will be at Trackside got the Xray working great just need some set up tips.

Oh, you will need all the merryment you can get if that's the case then.

Don't forget to put your better half on the sponsor list. That has the potential to bring merryment to an abrupt stop.

Where are you from in WI?

Congrats on the wedding, and good luck with the tp batts. Thanks again for the help with my xray, I keep getting better every week. I hope to come down to trackside for the new years race.

Jason Hack

Thanks Jason. cool, call me if you make it over before then.

I have friends that resided in Thiensville they recently just moved to Franklin. Milwaukee a very cool city.

Cool, they arent far away atall then. if you visit them, make sure to bring your gear and run at Trackside. if you need info, let me know.
