Default 1/12 scale question

Hey Mike-

Forgot to ask, I bought the CRC 3.2R and after about 4-5 min the car seems to get loose. Running purple fronts and white rears. I know you run a t-bar car. Should I soften the shock spring up? Ride height was good, nothing binding, rear pod would drop just a bit, about 1 mm when lifted up. ran 30 weight in the tubs, had white springs on the sides.

Any suggestions I'd appreciate.

Thanks.

Sorry I just emailed you back an hour or so ago.

on the 12th you are probably losing grip with the whites. they wear pretty fast and usually I only run them on high bite tracks cleveland birds etc.

either go to grey rears or maybe pinks if your track is really low bite.

You can also glue the outside of your front tires if the car is over rotating.

your setup is probably pretty close otherwise.

Thunder RC is now part owner of Thunder Raceway formerly RCMotorSports in Nashville, TN.

Billy Trask, Scott Fuller, and I (Michael Skeen) have now taken over the RCMotorsports track in Nashville. Its now Thunder Raceway.

Robert (nashrcracer) has updated the website with the new calendar for the rest of the month. For now its the same website: www.rcmotorsportsracing.com

Please check the website calendar for racing this month.

Starting in january we will be running friday night oval and saturday roadcourse every weekend. (dirt will be pending a vote this weekend, but will either be saturday night or on sundays every week).

Also, for insurance we are looking to go to Roar for insurance starting January 1, 2005. Unless we can come up with something else between now and then.

We are purchasing another heater and working on closing in the room a little better to get the pits and the track rooms warmer.
We will be working towards fixing up the bathrooms in the coming weeks as well.

Let us know if you have any suggestions via email at [email protected] or my cell is 615-243-0323

If I don't answer leave a message and I'll call you back as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Michael Skeen

Darryl, no problem man.

I will be honest we are starting off in a hole with this track as is. Even more than I was aware of just in rent.

We will race any day of the week I don't care as long as we can get at least 6 people so there will at least be a few marshalls.

Just give us a heads up a little in advance and we'll try to make it happen.

Later

Michael

Tempest...

You need to try to a "Under New Ownership Grand Opening Race" and pick a Date after the Novak race but before the snowbirds...


Just a thought!!!
