it will NEVER be run…
righto then, now i’m definately waiting till next year to get one
i’ll have to fold the aluminium a bit to avoid it bending in the place that the carbon (below pic) will eventually snap… personally though, unlike the Zs, I think most of this car will stay plastic

just one more… can even tell it is (was?) a Falcon 500…
check the detail! Could not be happier with it…:smiley16:
going to use it as a template to cut a 1.6mm aluminium one, should last longer than the carbon, which due to its weak spots may not take more than a few hits…
mate did’nt even have to mod the holes… go look in my gallery dood:D:approve:
good luck finding one!:D:D:D:D:D lol:p

had no probs at 50ft… ran out of space then, not range… BITHED; cheers for that carbon bumper dood… though it took a while to figure what it was supposed to go on… once that was sorted, it was easy… can send you the battery holder once i get the 6 cell pack. What’s it worth to you??:D:p:smiley2:

know what you mean… hopups for the T are the furthest it’ll go this year… and even then i’m not going nuts on it
how cool’s this package eh MK? Got bearings on the way ($2usd, then postage…:approve::smiley2:) mate dont do the oils till you need em… what batts you running in it? was using 2100mah nimh myself, does need more speed though. You’re right too, hopups are super cheap by comparison to Z’s… you seen the carbon fibre bumper? Fits on instead of the tiny bump bar on the front. Motor and 6 cell pack coming soon, but if you need differing suspension travel chuch a couple of the spacers in. Stupid question time; what colour body did you get? Glad you got one mate, you wont be dissapointed… btw, did you try normal batteries in it? Mine got done in about 3 minutes. Now the motor’s worn in it’s a bit faster, but stock motor wont be in for long… only got one pic in my gallery, but more will be added… *stops for a breath* cant wait to see the difference your motor makes… last thing; your lhs would’t happen to be Kellet’s would it?? :D:smiley2:
not me… partying, beer drinking, bbq-ing… Dave; that party did’nt end till about 4pm yesterday…
added the Mad Max Interceptor and my Mini T over the last few days… I need more T pics though
mate, my day… steaks, snags, salads, two cases of beer, and a dirty great industrial fan helping us chill in the backyard. Mega bbq… shame you’re not in Sydney atm z-beam!! Missed a corker…:D:approve:
this is what i was hoping to find out… my brother was not contactable on Wed. or Thurs. damn…
your knuckles sound like they might be wearing where they join to the tierod… gets a bit loose after a while… is your z new or second hand? Also check your servo gears:smiley2:
readyset; $265aud, bearings; $1.99usd (yes, cheap…!! not crap either)= about $10aud, with postage, etc., batt. pack; gotta go see Kellet’s. They were avoiding giving prices over the phone for some reason…
Bithed; nah, mate.:D Tis all yourseyah mate, got it last Friday… it goes pretty good. Bearings are in the mail, and i’ve organised through Kellet’s to get the 6 cell Nimh pack, charger, and a better motor for later on. Other stuff can wait till broken. It had (seemingly) no speed the first run down Meadowbank, but that was before motor ws broken in, and the 2100’s I used in it were not charged fully. Last night however was a totally different story. Still needs some more speed i think, but handling is super-responsive.
oy!!! ‘Nuff of the T bashing guys!!!:smiley2:
that’d go well with my R33… we’ll see…
“i’m a level 5 vegen, i dont eat anything that casts a shadow”… hehehe gotta love the Simpsons… mate, dont go vege. Meat is good!!!

rollcall for Sunday!!! Who’s in?
Quote:blow in the soft serve? im hoping thats there noses dude.anyone for kfc instead of maccas now?
