Looking to get a recoil what size batterys are out there for it that are any good. Also foam tires vs. rubber and any set ups that you guys have found work well ect. anything else to change or upgrade on it. looking to try racing again It's been a long time.

for our track we are spec at 5 cell, so the best we have found is the ib1400 smc makes a prebuilt pack that works great and sells for around 20.00

for a recoil the biggest thing you can do is get a steering servo, the stock one is incredibly slow. JR has a few options that bolt in and are very quick.

As far as tires. stock rubber is truely excellent on the track. we saw no gain from foam. This is going to vary from track to track.

Just to inform the group, It looks like I am scheduled to work on Wednesday so therefore I will not be attending this upcoming Wednesdays race.


It sucks but oh well. I will be at practice regardless on Monday. So see you guys tomorrow.

Well, I'm back for another week of racing! Should be fun tonight with practice with all my built up excitement for the upcoming race on Wednesday. Hopefully we have more turnout for practice.

None the less i still have to put double the effort tonight to win and catch up on points.

Sandy, where were you last week? Only racing when I'm racing? If you do race night, Could we or someone, practice together and work on my problem from the last time we raced? It would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully I'll be down from 5 incidents to down to 1. That’s my goal for today. Less than one tangle.

For everyone else, go ahead and get some revenge on me tonight. Yeah you heard right! Take a shot at me... not like for real(no guns). BIG RED CIRCLES ALL OVER ME NIGHT. Oh btw, only in practice
