RE: red cat racing dissatisfaction
i gotta put in my two cents. i got this car off a buddy cuz it was broken and i love a new chance at trying to fix something. after fixing it provisionally i did some research and figured that their cars do what their supposed to. sure they might have weaker parts or whatever but i think an experienced driver would have no trouble. i'm very new to this so i break parts all the time but whatev i'm still learning to drive. i like it overall.

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Lighting VX Thread
Cool, i finally got my gears in and installed. I'm ready to let her rip again. I got a dynamite pipe on it. didn't know there was a header available and i hope my chevy nastruck body will come in soon. Yeah i was thinking about getting an airfilter too, just wanted to get my body first to make sure it fit. Thanks again

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Lighting VX Thread
any mods to your lightning? I'm assuming you have one.

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Lighting VX Thread
yeah man, thanks. i researched the cause of it for a good while. i read a bunch of post just ragging on the quality of the product that you get what you pay for and so on but then the helpful ones started to pop out and all it came down to was basic maintenance on the car, at least that's what i deduced. Thanks again, bud.

El Paso, TX
Hi all I just wanted to start up a thread to rep EP. I know there are more El Pasoans out there. I'm new to R/C but so far i know about the 3 main shops here Hal's hobby shop, Team Valadez and R/C and me. there's a track at hal's but hardly ever open to the public, r/c and me set up a few little jumps in the back of the store and valadez just rips it up in the parking lot. I just met a few guys the other day that race against each other outside of a hooka shop after all the other shops are closed in the parking lot. So far i've been to a race at hal's and messed around in the parking lot at r/c and me. We need more peeps in this hobby here so keep this alive, the more people watch the cars around town the more will get into it.

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Lighting VX Thread
I just got a lightning from a this guy a few days ago as well. The spur was semi stripped so i tore the whole car down and cleaned it real good. after getting it put together i tried to start it for the first time. btw this is my very first experience with a nitro car. After nearly choking to death on the fumes in the garage I finally got it started in the back yard, yay! I fooled around with the needles for a bit (as if i knew what i was doing, jeje) and decided to put it to the cement. I ran pretty well in the backyard till i hit grass by accident. i forgot to tape up the whole under the car to protect the tranny so finished tearing up the first gear for good. Just waiting for my replacement in the mail. I think i'm gonna turn it into a nastruck looking thing :) i like trucks.
