[betty.k]

nah, we were too occupied to bust out the cameras.

man, it’s been over a year since i used my z! most of my batteries were dead and there was about an inch of dust on the shell but she drove like a dream.

shame my skills were a little rusty! :8ball:

[betty.k]

well that was a blast! awesome track and set up, thanks to whtang for spreading the word 😉

melbourne peeps have to get down on a saturday or thursday nights and spread the word! :beer: :8ball:

[betty.k]

[betty.k]

[betty.k]

far out! in the time it took me to write that we got slammed with 3 more spam posts! i promise i’m all over it dude;) :8ball:

[betty.k]

right on bro! that was an unprecedented amount of bullshit i came across tonight, 83 posts of spam! sorry i didn’t get to it earlier but i had some serious drinkin’ to do.

suffice it to say that crap is so deleted it never existed!:D :8ball:

pinions tend to wear faster so i recommend metal pinions on plastic/delrin spurs. the only drawback is that combo is noisier. :8ball:

hugely late but does any one know if u can put 02 frount springs in a 01

i don’t think so, they may be too short.

i also don’t think roll shocks are worth getting, just go for a wider h plate. :8ball:

[betty.k]

it could be the steering trimpot, try cleaning it out with some electrical contact cleaner like crc.

i’ve had good experiences with enertec stuff before, it’s toy grade but usually pretty solid.

what size are these? :8ball:

[betty.k]

hey, i forgot to ask. what sorta tyres are working with this surface? are all my foam tyres useless now? do i gotta place a full on order for rubber? :8ball:

[betty.k]

[betty.k]

wat motor does jamie kulhanek’s mr01 have in the pic
6 cells can u do that to a z

it was a plasma dash i think. i personally wouldn’t run a z on 6 cells but it’s possible. :8ball:

[betty.k]

sounds like a motor issue to me, see if a different motor does the same thing. :8ball:

[betty.k]

have a ripsnorter boss!:beer: :8ball:

[betty.k]

i’ve had a few nasty ones, broken chassis’, knuckles etc. nothing worth mentioning apart from a templestowe meet where i managed to demolish a full set of gpm alloy servo gears!

but the best i’ve seen was jamie kulhanek’s mega-fetstacked 01 slamming headfirst into a barrier at templestowe doing about 50 – 60kph! the crash was bad enough to tear off superglued foam tyres and bend an aluminium bulkhead!:smiley11: :8ball:

[betty.k]

all the atomic parts i used on this chassis were great quality, i recommend ’em:smiley16: :8ball:

[betty.k]

yeah, she’s still sitting on the shelf. got a good inch of dust on her though! i reckon she needs the cobwebs blown outta her;) :8ball:

[betty.k]

spewin’! he was a good bloke and looked after his customers well. :8ball:
