Would love to. Our group was planning on going down soon anyway. I just need to clear it with the wife... might be my oldest's 15th B-day party... maybe I can talk her into having it on Sunday. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. It has been pretty good so far.

Default 08 Race Season

Hi guys,
It's that time of year when the next Race season is almost upon us.
We at OCM Australia are looking for a major expansion to the team and we welcome all interested parties (not just the guns). We are extremely happy with the new EVO buggy and as Truggy is around the corner, this is a perfect time to get the Team up and going in Australia.
I won't go into too many specifics on the forum but please if your genuinely interested send me a PM with your E-Mail address and I will send out a small questionnaire.
At present we have approx 6 guys for 08 and we're looking for another 10.
All enquiries will be handled with the upmost confidentiality and no names will be disclosed until both parties agree.
Cheers
Kev

Guys...I have just noticed that some of you have sent me PM's on various forums. I apologize for not getting back to you quickly as I really only use [email protected] and have not thought to check the PM's as I only really use the threads to post information for you guys. I'll try to check these more often, however the best way to get a quick response is via my ocm email. I usually get back within a day. But I check that several times per day. I will be getting caught up on these over this coming week.

Thanks!

I'm guessing it was at Mad Maxx in Alabama. I got the link from a post a few pages back.

Used from the for sale forum. I might trade all of my electric off-road stuff for a roller.

OCM 2007

Guys,

I just wanted to give a run down on my OCM Kaos for the '07 year. I actually started with a 2nd version car that eventually lead to the Kaos EVO. It had some things I would like to see different initially, but I knew we had a good piece to work with driving for previous companies. The base construction was solid.

One thing was the front end needed more steering. Upward and down travel I think was key here. Basically a longer shock, and better geometry on the shock tower fixed this. Also the early kits had some drivetrain issues that were fixed promptly, this really got my attention that OCM was wanting to make a statement in the US market. The plastic and aluminum was great from the start. Also the brakes, steering assy, and shock towers were solid as well.

The OCM kit is reliable and very competative going into next year. I feel the car had great tracktion from day 1. Tons of steering , plus the suspension is lots better with the EVo. I got more and more comfortable as a driver throughout the year, Now the latest cars are just easy to drive.

There are great things to come from OCM in 2008. The new OCM Truggy is now shipping out to dealers. Also a stronger team has formed from working together in '07.

Thanks

Brandon
