Thumbs up

nice truck, dont know if I will get one
This track is in Austin, TX, was there a few weeks ago for rc pro elec race
Small electric track with alot of elevation changes, you need a rhythm to be fast, the guys running the slash were fast guys thats why it looks so good they dont make mistakes
I was impressed at the traction these tires have, I was having a hard time bec of the poor traction of the track, they wet it before a race and midway thru the heat it would dry up
The person doing the video is griz, go to youtube and you will see alot more of his racing videos

thanks... the purpose for the video was to show how fast these trucks can go and to show how agile they are.

Anyway, here at Norcal, we're just starting to run these trucks. The supplies for these trucks are still very limited.

Default Just sharing...

Just sharing photos of Norcal Hobbies off-road track taken June 07, the day before the TCS race. First photo shows the proximity of the on-road track to the off-road track (they also have indoor carpet track, not shown). The last photo is the dreaded jump. Many have broken their suspension arms on their buggies and trucks...

are you racing wet (censored sa iba) or dry
anong gulong ba for 4wd holeshots or ifmar pins sa likod, kapag dry ifmar pins kailiangan para maraming side bite
oh well will bring both but I cant compete with you guys you guys are fast pero enjoy nalang
thanks
acutally I was corrected by jobo. si pres. kimson ang naka 4.5 lipo and dax 4.5 sub-c. So I dont know if it abit too much power, so far this guys are comfortable using it.kitang kita 4.5 has the advantage of accelerations, guys using sensorless mamba and R1 are struggling, with the pace, we just have to gear-up.
at that daytime morning was light damp, but after lunch 2 & 3 mains, it was dry, so tires are important, using pins.
yes ifmar pins are used in dry conditions.

Emer:

Wala ako 4.5.... 5.5 na yung lowest wind BL motor na meron ako.

Testing-testing yung paggamit ko ng 6.5R last race day. Tinitingnan ko kung may mahahanap ako na combo (wind + gearing) sa 4WD buggy kung saan mas comfortable ako.

Ok naman yung pakiramdam ng 6.5R sa B44 last Sunday (84/17 o 84/18? I have to double check). If I can drive consistently on a lap, I felt I can keep up with the pace. Balak ko mag-stick muna sa motor na ito at maglaro sa sizes ng pinion (and possibly spur later).

Sa ngayon kasi, yung mga learning experiments ko, salang agad ng race day.

Hopefully, sometime next year, I can go to our track and have the time to test different things on a non-race day Sunday.

-------------------

Yung Tamiya kit na ginamit ko dati, DF-03!

-------------------

BTW, it felt great racing again last Sunday!

Actually, medyo frustrated ako sa corner entry at exits ko. I felt I was slow specially during the exit.

Ang kinatuwa ko, na-realize ko kung saan ang tingin ko mali ko. Nung iniba ko ng konti yung approach sa corner entry, my exits became better.

Now, I think it's just a matter of remembering, honing and consistently doing it.

Asiwang-asiwa din ako sa triple. Parang di ko ma-gets kung saang part dapat ako nung unang ramp mag-take-off. Walang confidence. Laging crossed-fingers ako paglipad ng kit na sana hindi sumemplang.

I also think I still have some way to go in terms of in-the-air throttle control. I have to speed up my reflexes.

Anyway, that's what I consider the biggest fun part in this hobby... what you can assess, realize, and learn, to try to be faster.
