The water is freezing up there in Cheeseheadland already? Dang. It's a little nippy here at night but warming up again next week. We had a heat wave here today, it got up to 50!

What did you get? Just nosy.
BTW, speaking of weather we're supposed to get a lot of rain tomorrow and (get this!) a chance of tornadoes! Yeah, no kidding for this time of the year.
Nah, I stay away from ESC's as much as I can. I stopped by a LHS earlier in the week and several people were trying to bind a RX in a buggy and it was comical. The geniuses were trying to bind the ESC, not the receiver! I can't make this stuff up.

Boat or car fuel? O'Donnell makes some really good boat fuel, I think that it's who makes GrimRacer fuel.

car, I can get the motor to run but it wants to die after I try to give it gas, I a nitro knob. I am guess it has a leak some where, lots of fluid under motor. Its really hard to get at low idle needle screw.

Those engines are notorious for having the low-speed needle being way off or it's too lean. The cold weather may be affecting it so it may need to go richer on the high-speed also.
Lots of fluid (probably oil) could very well be a sign of a leaking bearing. In that case it would be a bear to try to tune it.

The rain came a lot earlier so I think I'm done, just the story of this fall, it could not be warm and nice at the same time.
