Only if you like chasing cones around a parking lot!!!

yeah those usually only last....say.......one pass...haha

Of course a box of roofing nails would solve that.

Wait! I know. relay races with RC cars. You have to drive the car down, and then push the cone back. lol

Actually you'd be surprised at the number of people who would stop to watch that.

i just got my rs4 3 working again. the rear diff is a lil funky still but its alive!!! im thinkin sometime soon an os 18 will be in there too!

Sweet, I wanna see it. You'll have to bring it out. I'm still wrenching on the OB4. I can't really run it though I've gotta yank the tank out and find the leak. I could probably use some CA glue to seal the leak wherever it is. I think its leaking from the fuel line nipple on the tank.

replace it with a new tank if you want to save yourself some frustration. If you can't find a new tank, try a different model/brand. It'll prolly bolt right up or you may have to drill two holes in the chassis.

i think i have an extra tank it yours if i make it out!

heres a few pics

notice the pro 15 carb! the neck is quite a bit larger then the stock hpi. ill be getting a new air filter and pipe when i pick up a new engine.

Unfortuantely the tank mounts to the upper plate and is a smaller tank. already tried a HPI tank and it doesn't fit. I would need to take the dremel and grind away at the graphite and I'm not sure if thats a good idea right. I don't want to crack the upper plate, it'll be useless then.

I just hope the guy that stoped by talking about his Mad collection of 1/4 and 1/5 scales shows up with one. Those things are just wicked.

I should have the inferno GT running again by the weeknd. I'm tossing in the stock engine and running that until I ge the cash for somethitng sick to drop in there.

Bill you can cut and drill graphite with no problems. I've used the dremel to cut and my DeWalt 18v drill for holes. just use good sharp drill bits.

Well, today is the day of Baja. Seems I forgot to take pics of anything else. I was awed by the punishment it took..

My desire has been renewed, I must have a Baja 5b! Click the pic for pic goodness.

We had a shitload of people there today, LOTS of watchers and LOTS of big accidents. Everytime the baja went up it crashed. Had a head-on, Nitro 4tec vs 1/8scale buggy. Neither won, 1/8thscale broke an A-arm, well the 4tec we won't talk about its dust..

Drag racing to the extreme. Raced Johns inferno GT and it was about dead even. Raced a Hyper 7 with a hyper 21 8port and very slowly walked away. Was very cool today.

The OS 30 ran great and the jammin was practically flying. HUGE speeds. Killed the truggy by snapping the rear toe block, it was plastic though time for a KHZ order.

SO who's got the Baja?

And is that an FG i see in the pics? who's is that?

Thirdgen89GTA · (#39 (**permalink**))

He's not on this site I don't think. But he goes to Al's hobbies all the time.

He's got a Baja, both the Moser buggy and truck, and a MCD 1/4 scale. Every single one of them except the Baja is hopped up to the max.

He brought like 17 cars.

(one he bought that day and broke 10 minutes later) Sick.. stuff. .he had 3 1/4 scales, Jatos, Ravo, Genesis, Menace 21.. on and on.. he could not drive worth a crap and crashed and broke everyhitng within minutes.. Guy was a madman!
