Thought about driving by the spot to see if its open but had other things to do.

Might still be soggy out there Jeff, someone needs to make a waterproof brushless setup.

Hopefully that will be this next sunday.

Hey! I just joined the forum and looking around, everyone seems nice. Ive been to this place a few times with my BL T4 and with my friend thats got a B4. Its fun with everyone, but sometimes it can get kinda scarry with all the trucks driving around. lightweight electric versus a heavy Savage = lots of parts to buy. Anyways, we need to get some onroad guys here. Drifting anyone? I would love to bring my TC4 but nobody ever has a onroad. Whens the next time a lot of people will be here? I came at the end of september and there was only one other person. Maybe If I bring my TC4, I can start a new trend in the busse bash. Well let us know when this starts up again. I'll be there.

LOL!

I never associate bashing with on-road, but hey, why not!

Welcome to the forums and the Busse Bash!


btw. I had a nicely modded TC-3 but sold it since I've been having more fun with the trucks.

Later.

I consider anything that isn't racing, bashing.

I didnt know that was the reason why. I just thought that is was too cold and wet and snowy. Hopefully we can get out there this weekend. That would top off a birthday.

Techicly, If you look at RC drifting, thats bashing. Instead of accomplishing something they are just going sideways, kind of like how a truck goes off a huge jump.


LSP lots of Khz, Werks .28 8 port.

Revo 2.5, TRX 3.3 Engine, Center Diff. Fast and Turns on a dime.

If you want to do that Friday night at Rt 83 & St Charles rd in the Kohls parking lot is where you want to be, infact Al's stays open slightly later and if someone from the shop is coming over they may even BRING parts if you buy them.

Busse woods does not allow us to run on the pavement. We were warned several times last season to stay off the pavement, so its off-road or no road.

Ugh, that sucks. What is that other thing that you are talking about? Is it a onroad bashing spot like the busse bash?

Kind of. Basically on friday nights people start showing up about 9:00 to 9:30 after Kohls closes, then the entire parking lot is open, and its about 700x400 so its quite large.
Rt 83 & St Charles - Google Maps

Oval, drag, top speed, drifting...etc, there's someone doing something with an on-road car, and several savages jumping like maniacs on pavement.
