I just found this on the LIR thread and thought it was hillarious. We've all heard those bud light commercials before, well this is the RC racers version.

Bud Light Presents R/C Men of Genius

…R/C Men of Genius…

Today we salute you Mr. Giant Hauler Bag Inventor.

…Mr. Giant Hauler Bag Inventor…

Because of you, we will never find ourselves at a race without our bench-top drill press....again.

…Got everything I need…

What's all that crap stuffed in my own personal freighter? It's my car, and my radio, and my chargers, and my power supply, and my soldering iron, and my pit light…

…Still have more room, yeah!…

and my comm lathe, and my tire truer, and my airbrush, and my motor zapper, and my kitchen sink, and my wife.

…Can I use your tweak board?...

So crack open an ice cold Bud Light ‘ol King of the Carry-All…because when it comes to transporting our racing equipment, size really does matter.

[QUOTE=RB FIVE;5138653]Ok here goes.... let's review the #'s

Front bulkhead.... Pivot block i assume... anyway when that breaks or when the blue aluminum piece gets tweaked change it. Don't over tighten these screws snug them down nicely.

Rack, Go buy the aluminium one, it's cheap. That was a weak link.

[QUOTE]


I think this may be the problem. Mike anb myself have the tendancy to crank down on screws pretty good. Once the pivot block breaks it's a chain reaction with the rest of the parts.

Mike has one of the aluminum racks on the way already.

Hey Mark, Thanks for posting the video from the B-main of the trophy race!!! That was the best run of my life! LOL

PS. I might not be down to the track for a while because an old friend called me with an opportunity of a lifetime to learn about real estate investing.

B, that was a good run! Is there a vid of the A-Main? Hows that Sp treating you?

any more videos up also mark how tight are the screws in your bulkhead in your rb5

Thanks for posting the videos Mark.

That 4wd A-main was . Let's see what Kyle and Chris can do against these guys in the next trophy race

One question though for Mark/John,

Are you guys using the same layout for the Regionals??

I'm not suggesting that you do or don't.

Just wanted to know.

I like this layout, hopefully I can reach my goal of 30 laps before any changes.

I had a bad showing at the trophy race, I was overly eager to advance in positions, and made stoooped mistakes, my set up was all wrong, with super stiff rear springs, I was fighting the truck through out the whole race.

Someone told me that I wasn't one of the faster guys in trucks at RCHR, and that messed with my head the whole day, I was trying to prove that person wrong, and it messed me up bad.

I'm actually looking forward to the next one, my truck is running like I want it to run, It possibly needs a clean up and rebuild, but other than that, I'm very happy on how she's performing. Hopefully I can get my 2wd dialed in as good as the truck.

As far as my truck breaking in the Main on Saturday, I guess I had a mental fart and didn't tighten the wheel nut all the way, so my axle pin shot out, and one of my rear wheels was free wheeling

Well jay, just join me i 2wd limited then. A high 15 will put you with Murphy, and myself.

I can only assume one little guy that would say something like that to you. Anyways I had a very bad main that day too. Ran 2 laps slower then any other time on the same layout.

Hey Jay, tonight in practice I ran a 13.3, 13.4, and a 13.5!

Hey guys what's the stock spur gear on the Rb5? Also what does that plastic piece on the left rear outdrive do? Thanks.....

John the stock spur is a 78t and that peice is used to seal the outdrive and to hold the diff in.
