RE: Tornado s30 dish wheels?
here's the ones i just bought go to towerhobbies.com part number is 3347 for the front rims and the rear rims part number is 3348 just type it in the search area, the rims are on sale for $11 bucks for 4 rims...they come in packs of 4 only so u will get 8 rims total, but extra is better..lol ...also i just bought road tires with my order and i put my road tires on 1 set and the other set i put my stock tires on for off-road but i would recomend putting foam in ur stock tires, the road tires come with it and it stiffens the tires up so u dont hit ur rims on bumps

need help with my tornadoBB
got a tornado BB and it runs real well if i dont stay on the throttle for awhile. like when i go through the grass it will stay in first and be at high rpm and starts to bogg down after that and lose of power... im thinking its over heating it also does this is when i do alot of donuts in the gravel.. it has a smoke stream coming out but may not enough what do u guys think...before i messed with the tuning it would have gas spitting out the exsaust when....not alot but a good amount

RE: Removing Tires on Tornado S30?
i just had to order some new wheels and tires for my tonadoBB the center broke out of it so i ordered some dish rims and street tread tires. i mostly drive this buggy on the road and stuff so i like the 2speed but is there a taller tire that will work with my car..im gonna be taking my buggy to my local dirt track for stock cars and want to have more top end i think it will be a blast the owner said we can go when ever we want so me and some friends are gonna do some racing of our own..lol ...is there a bigger motor i can buy for this buggy as well? if so whats the best to get...and one more question is the stock rims the shortest rims that will fit, if there is smaller ones that u know please inform me i would like them for better acc when driving around the house and stuff....thanks in advance...also i was wondering if u can find out if my 1year warranty is up i know it kinda close....reason i ask is i already had to buy a throtle servo,,,,now my steering servo is getting really slow at turning and makes it hard to control would these be covered under that warenty...my name is bill seward u should have me on file i just got a idle screw from redcat about a month ago

RE: Redcat Racing Tornado Thread
hello all got a couple questions about my tornado BB i drive it on the street for the most part so i like the 2 speed but what is the best cheapest engine upgrade?i have the s30.. and from what car? also should i get alum clucth and stuff to make it last longer im new to this had it for about 6 months get to play around couple times a month.....also the original rims are junk that come with the tornado, one of my front rims broke the center out when it did a flip at slow speed..lol..and the rear one from doing donuts and stuff. is there a link someone could put on here for some good stronger rims and i would like to put street tires on it also... sometimes when im driving it it runs awesome and ill go in the dirt and do a bunch of donuts and it boggs down sometimes is it getting to hot, it did have a hard time starting awhile back when i first got it it wouldnt shift into second gear for awhile then i let it sit for 2 months and it shifts fine now i did the proper break in...and a buddy helped me tune it a little..the idle is great im just worried about the other screw i turned it down all the way then brought it out 2 and a half turns and it wouldnt run so i just kept turning it until it ran set my idle....should it have a little blow by fuel coming out the ex. it seems to run better when i turned it up to where it just started getting blow by... original setup it was pouring out the ex and eventully stopped running after about a gallon of fuel through out the times i ran it.. so i re did the set-up any ways sorry for the long post but im looking for some solid rims for the front and back and street tires, nice solid ones...unless someone knows of a better rim style the ones at redcat look like they would break easy too. any cheap upgrades u could help out with would be great thanx in advance...alo i have a traxxas car minus motor and sterring servo is there anything i can use on mine from it like front end parts to make a wider wheel base? or even the tranny? thanx again guys
