Testing the Waters - 02-05-2006, 07:49 PM

I have a Revo that is currently set up with an OS .21 VZ-B. It has a JR 8800 steering servo, P2's all around and some other small modifications. (.21 mount and foreward only conversion and aluminum single steering arm and top brace) It can have anywhere from 1-3 sets of wheels and tires with an extra set of tires. I would want to trade RTR for RTR for a UMT or roller for roller for a UMT. Let me know if there is any interest...

Dan

If i can get a good deal I have always wanted to run UMT first. I didn't have the cash to get into that so I went MT. Now that I have a motor, servos... If I can get a good roller deal I probably will. If not I will happily race the revo...

Let me say this as a new UMT racer. I am a consistent top 4 MT racer at LH this year. In UMT I can't even make the A main. It's a much much harder class to race in.

My advice is to race the revo, get real good at driving, no mistakes and start finishing top 3 consistently before hoping up to UMT. MT is a good class to learn good driving skills.

I looked at it that way too. If I do get a deal though I have no problem running lower mains untill I get better and bump up. I have seen that it is a very difficult class. If I don't get a deal I will run MT untill I am finishing very well very consistantly...

I charge $30 an hour for my expertise! You spent 3 hours modding that thing with my help, I didn't do it for you to sell it right away.

If you trade or sell it you owe me $90
(seriously I wouldn't do that! but please see where I'm coming from) I am not going to be so quick to help you or anyone else out if it turns into a waste of time for me.

Don't keep it on my behalf either, I don't care what class or RC you run, it simply doesn't effect me. I just don't like wasting my time.

not to sound like a a$$ but you need to learn to drive better and be a little more courteous on the track. some bashing is expedited in the MT class but not in UMT and people will NOT put up with it to long. I'm not saying you do it or not but we have all seen the MT racing and what goes on. just some thing to think about.

Is just a general comment. I have seen it myself. There tends to be less hacking in UMT than MT. UMT usually lacks beginners. Wh
