so DT the am lxx’ boosters are a little under powered:D,and noisy:dead:. are the lxx’s ready to take bcg gearing streight up or not?
looks heaps like the keyence madtune.
PLEASE DONT TYPE LIKE THIS IS SMS! froggy what mods did you want to do?, i have managed to source all (nearly) good parts in unlikely places.
and although i am in the east coast i should be able to help.really if you want fast motors, buy a couple of decent clones, the pink and yellow ones rip, unlike tomy bcg motors that are weak. you also pick up black hard tyres and some different shells and frequencies. try to find 57, 35,and 45.
places to look: strathfield electronics, el cheapo shops etc. buy more than one and you can usually bargain them down.the hot wheels section is the first step in cosmetic customisation, even better is toys r’ us
import tuners and muscle machines.for performance upgrades the humble kit racer is a good source of tomy orange motors(the next one up from yellow),different tyres, heatsinks and batteries. once again a kmart, toyworld find.
hobby stores are the next thing, they stock (if your lucky) anything from minature trees to finish off a track(ho model train supplies) to aluminium piping for exhaust tips.also afx springs for suspension.
shop around, and dont spend untill u seen evrythin. bargains don’t last…
good luck, z-beam.

drool…
i can understand your logical progression impreza. i’m sure skippy, sorry i mean ph2t could rig it up just the way i need it…
could an original booster be rigged up so that the boost button becomes the reverse, and the forward is boost and the backward is half throttle?
omg dats the funky $hit.
communist slavery… where would we be without it? i wonder if the quality difference between clones and tomy bits is due to pay difference or ak47’s to the head?:shock::evil::smiley2:

i could run like all four topics at once in sydney, now in the stix 2 can be a worry. proliferance….. that broadband hits the spot…
yeah but how does the lxx clone boosters go?
new youd get em. imagine seeing one on a new contach shell, mmmm.
did you get some lights in?
i just hate having to hold down boost, it’s just not natural to have accelleration broken into two buttons. especially since i’m using my left thumb for half and then my right pointer for full. ’tis not natural…
so even if tomy don’t do this i want it and hopefully others want it enuff to make it happen.
ph2t, how many noticible steps could be implemented between the original half and full boost? i’d only want 4 really, five if i was using dual cell.
just think, only having to tap the boost button to change the speed setting and being able to down shift into corners. i think this change could put bits into a new racing dimension, previously untouched.
what da hell is TARGA?
how old are the the patents?, thats if the box is in english.do these precede the v.o2 bits?
i wonder what would happen if you went full throttle into a brick?:D and can the shell be removed/replaced?
seen alice lately pete? RESPECT THE MASTER!
boosters work at +.2 but dont last as long as a normal single cell.
mr.prabbit, is there a way of increasing drive time AND power?
i’ve always had dreams of owning and racing a contach. bits are the ultimate in poor mans racing,and the hobby will be boosted even more with the release of the updated chassis.
i just hope spring suspension will be compatible with the new unclippable front nuckles, and that the extra button is put to good use:D
dt: i seen u in the pimps hood, thats why i trixtya.whats all this about the darkside of bit pimps?
cranga: when i look at it, i don’t mind it…
i wonder what our international members think of the p76?what shell is the x-men one and the green/black one? nice pics, i mean nice subject matter o.k. pics.

i found a larger than the nuckle pin spring and stretched it so it was perfect diameter. the ones that are too small will always be too small.
half price motors, mmm i wonder how much buisness they will get.

still sleeping with the enemy, tsk tsk… just jokes.
so glad the population of ausmicro arnt psycho obsessed freaks, and can type so you can understand them. was he that stuck he had to “prove” himself to you? that’s too damn funny!!!nice photos spanky.
so how do the heatsinks look? you still waiting or not?
yeah- “world championship bit-racing”-i wish!
my post was a bit of a joke actually, check it out now it’s reversed. nothin like getting some heated intrest. i knew as soon as youd seen the bit i was talkin about you would laugh. and as a final way of admitting my hippocracy the picture is entitled “rushed flames”.
they were such c@nt$ to do…
as for spray, i do some times, i just love acryllic thats all.
p.s DT i painted the whole car in about 4 hours, now that was rushed. de/re-construction took a sundays spare time
