Convince the FL crew to come up again for the Halloween Classic and Champs warm-ups!! The joint looks amazing
For sure! The gate is cool That drivers stand you guys had was killing me to get up on cause I had a twisted ankle last year. We have been talking about comming up for the last few weeks and looking forward to running on the carpet again. I may not make the champs but the classis looks promising!

That's funny cause I think I heard the driver's stand saying you were killing it when you got up there.

Hey guys,

The 3800's are selling out fast. If you want some you better hurry and get them out of this batch. Next batch wont be here till late next week and a few weeks after that for matching time.

I am doing the NEW IB3600's now and they are coming out pretty good. Most are in the 1.17 range at 35 amps. Best of all the capictiy of this cell is above 3800MA. Most are in the 380-390 range on runtime with low IR's. Plus its 2 gramms lighter per cell than a GP3300!! All this for about 6.00 per pack less than a 3800. I'll have them on the site later this week.

Also I have Gas car IB reciever packs and Mini T/18T packs coming soon.

Thanks

Hey everyone, I tried posting this in the main forum but was told I might get better answer in thi thread, so here goes...

I am trying to get into 1/10th scale electric, I already race 1/10 scale nitro, but want something for the winter months.

So I was hoping you could help me out since I very new to electrics.

I have a chance to pick up a trf415 (not the MS, but a good amount of spare parts) for a pretty good price, with 4 gp3300 Matched packs ( i know i don't need these as a begginer, but they are included), LRP Quantum 2, Futabe 9550, 3 sets of rubber tires and rims and a couple stock motors for around $550

But after reading up it seems like the 415 is a hard car to get dialed in, and isn't the strongest thing out there either. So I like what I have read about the FK04 and you can get them at a decent price, FK05 i think is more than i need at the moment and local distibution for Xray parts is great.

I also thought about the TC4 (maybe factory edition when it is out) or the PRO4 because the parts are pretty much in every hobby store out their and seem to be very capable cars.

So I am just looking for some advice to see if i should jump on the 415 deal (hopefully i can eventually upgrade it to the MSX version eventually) and to know if I would be competitive with or if i should go another route

I plan to buy the Duratrax ice charger for my batteries and a itegy discharge tray. (or should i get the Novak?) I could also get the CE GFX charger buyt think it is overkill for me and like the fact that the duratrax can do LI-POL batteries too.

PLEASE HELP BEFORE MY HEAD EXPLODES!!!

I am a dye hard Losi fan! But!........The FK04 is still a great car. FK05 is a lil better but the 04 is very competitive. At ou local club track, over the past couple years I have been WAY impressed in the way the X-Ray cars hold up to a pounding! As a matter of fact one of the fastest cars this year at our track is an FK04. X-Ray parts are not cheap but usually you don't break too much on them anyway. My advice would be to pick up a FK04 with parts and get after it!!!

Then when you get better and want a newer car you can buy a JRXS!!

Hey Guys,

I started on the 3600's this week...Didnt get any done today though cause Ive been sick

But the ones I have got done look pretty good. Runtime is awsome for a 3600 cell. Most voltages are in the high 1.16-1.17 range. I should have them up on the site by the end of the week. For the money these will be great for guys on a budget and still get a top of the line cell with great performance!!

Yes they are the intellect 2/3A 1200 packs but they wont be matched. I may invest in some matchers for them at a later time. But with a retail on 6 cell mini packs at 24.00 and 7 cell packs for 28.00 you cant beat them!! They offer great performance.

I will also have these cells as reciever packs for gas cars. at a retail of 20.00 assembled.
