Hey Mr. Trigger Finger Tekin Boy,

too much power huh lad? A 10.5? Try adjusting your esc...Me and Maizer use 8.5's, and JUST BACK OFF THE THROTTLE.

Make some adjustments before you spend needless $$ ya know?

Yes , for Fridays. And trying to keep it inexpensive for families being introduced to the hobby. Minis run around $100. Easy for us who have a
controller to jump into this class. Already has speedo and
silver can motor. Should be fun if we can get enough folks, so spread the word!

I think I have 'tarded (think Hangover) finger or something, I just can't help it. The timing on the motor is all the way down, the current limiter is at 50% and the EPA is at 70. If I start playing with the throttle expo it gets laggy and I have a hard(er) time saving it in corners.

I'm going to tighten up the diff and play with the rear camber links.

Isn't that the new spec kit? If they're re-releasing the Civic EG body, I'm in.

I had a Mini Cooper, and that thing was definitely fun to run, not the best handling car, but fun none the less.

Keep it nice and stock, including tires, run your own servo and radio...
