haha, yeah.

That zoom is weird, and its a midget ass camera. Not to mention I feel like I'm not doing him justice with my potty like camera skills.....


now on a drivers stand on a track, that would have been easier.

That was very impressive. The video/picture quality is much higher than what I'm used to seeing in the 'usual' RC racing video. Wish LiveRC was that good.

Gonna have to make a trip up north to sample some tracks!

the odonnel isn't really hotter than a 5 plug but runs better


mccoy mc59 is the hottest plug that works well with nova engines

change the 59 plug often though , you dont want a filament flying through your engine
