Atleast I can say I've got a reason for posting in this thread

And using a car loaded with one of these gems, no less:



I'll have a better idea how much power it makes once I find a replacement for the rear diff ring gear it split in half

I just grabbed the HPI Vintage tires because they looked cool and I needed something to get rolling, I wasn't sure what everyone would be running. Once that pans out I'll get a regular set of tires for racing (you say foams but weren't there rumors of a rubber tire rule floating around?). And these are a hoot and a half in the driveway

And yeah, that's a Futaba MC230CR. This car's running everything out of my T4, minus the motor and receiver. Lucky me, it even came with a 48-pitch spur gear. For ~$40 the 230CR's a pretty nice little unit

If Jamie, Buck or Kenny are running the show, Racing will start at 6:30. If Scotty is running the show racing will start about 7ish

Not when your running someone over with the bus. That just adds more insult to injury.
