I am going to try and get my NTC3 running, and come have some fun with you guys this weekend. The last few pieces to get this thing running are on there way.

I may need a little tuning help, with my engine seens how this is the actual very first nitro engine I have ever touched.

Hope I can make it

Hey John, that pain medication is making you forgetful!

We need you to let us know when you want us there!

Couple things...

-If your looking for tuning help out there, search out Larry. He'll get your engine going good for you. And he loves when we bombard him with questions before he even has a chance to get his stuff off his truck!(like me and CIVIC did to get his help fixing the generator last time out) Seriously though, he's always happy to help new nitro runners...

-If you haven't asked anybody yet...

26mm-40 shore (front)
30mm-37 shore (rear)
Plus...Paragon traction additive when needed...

Is a good starting point for the foams out there. Don't know how that translates to the color system that some companes use though.

Hope to see you out there...
