RCX in So Cal April 28/29
I'm going on the 28th. Who else is going? You will recognize me with me Tattoos on my legs. Back calves have claws ripping through my skin. Left leg on my shin has an Alien holding the world while flipping you off. Say "What's Up" if you see me

RE:
This has gotten way off topic. I beleive this topic can be mainly for newbies. I have an assortment of different RC's from different manufacturers. Traxxas, HPI and AE. What i own now. Traxxas: 2 1/16 BL E-Revos & a 1/10 E-Revo HPI: Vorza, E-Savage AE: BL TC4 & 1/18T RC's can be compared to the love of cars. My DD is a Honda Fit. But, My weekend car is a Corvette Z06. Lets make this topic a What do i like/Don't like about a certain RC. I love my Vorza as a Basher. But it's to heavy to race.

RE: Found Weakness In Vorza
I replaced the rear hubs with aluminum. Now i'm hitting the jumps with confidence. I have a big dirt area near my house with a 3' tall jump and i'm flying about 20' and easily landing. I haven't broken anything else yet. I'm really happy with this Buggy

RE: Which traxxas should I buy
I was just recently in the same boat. I have 2 Brushless E-Revos, E-Savage & Brushless TC-4. I just sold my Revo 3.3 with an OS18 in it. I was looking for a replacement. I wanted a 1 /10 Brushless Revo. I ended up buying in one day a used Brushed E-Revo for $200 and i got a New Vorza. Keep your options open for other brand cars/trucks.

RE: Found Weakness In Vorza
Once i fix it. The Vorza is staying off the street. Strictly for dirt and jumps. The one downfall of owning this Buggy is the availability of parts. None of my local hobby stores carry them. I had to order it off Ebay.

Found Weakness In Vorza
I just bought an HPI Brushless Vorza. Running on 2 3S Lipo's. I was running up and down my street and it got sideways going about 30mph and hit the curb. I ended up breaking the Drivers side Rear Hub. I'm replacing it with the Aluminum Rear Carrier Set.

RE: Mustang GTR Bodyshell owners + TT01 model owners, i require some help please
It's a 200mm body on an electric car. That's why the wheels look small with the body on.

RE: after run oil, fact or fiction help
I use it all the time after i'm done running my trucks. I don't see any harm by using it. It's a very cheap item to buy and it only takes less than a minute to do.

RE: Has the economy slowed you down?
It hasn't hurt me at all. Just 2 months ago i dropped over $1000 on 2 R/C trucks. My wife and i just had our 12 year annivarsy the other day and i saw in an advertisement for a slightly used BMW convertable for sale. I told her i would buy it for her right then and there as a 3rd car. For some reason she said no. I'm still confused on why she declined. She is too wondering why she said no. Oh well....

RE: Superior NITRO TRUCK
Savage XL It's 10x better than any Revo i've owned as for bashing. It's got a monster engine that wheelies on demand. It flies in the air when taking jumps.
