Sorry the photos are a little blurry. I'm still learning
this camera. They should be a lot better. I also
should have taken pics earlier when everyone was
still running. Oh well.....












And here's a picture of a bunny with a pancake on his head....

uuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Nice shots of tonights fun at leisure. Yeah it would have been nice to have ALL of the trucks in the picture, but I guess six was the only one walking off the track only to refuel, cant say that about the rest of us though. Still a great time.

Don't worry I broke too. after you guys left I ran two more tanks and lost steering in one direction and found the servo is dead. It was lots of fun I'm up for it again next wed too!!

Yeah, I broke a lot of stuff but it was still fun.

Broke a servo and a shock on my T3.
Forgot the power supply for my charger.
Six's radio decided to start controlling my trucks even
though he was on 86 and I was on 84. (weird one)

Then to top it all off... I went to McDonalds on the way
home and they forgot to give me napkins. Bastids!!! LOL

Aside from one other guy, we were the only ones at the track.
It's kinda weird how dead they get in the summer.

I got the bunny at McDonalds. It's the new McBunny Sandwich. LOL!

My truck broke two shock holders on the bottoms of the big bores, and I had a consistant problem with the CVD's coming out of the outdrive cups. Oh and ended up breaking one of the pins in the CVD. Thanks to six who had something the same diameter and we cut it to fit the cvd and it worked great. I will reinstall the revo driveshafts in the front and lose the cvd's for now, at least until I get some UE ones.

It was a good time, but I never got to the bottom of a tank of gas before something happened. I will go again, but I am not sure about next week. But real soon.

every used UE piece goes quick. that's one of the things i like about going UE, resale value and people interest. If I ever want to sell, it'll go quick

I think I will look for some supershocks and install my sliders for now. Let me know if you see any. I check the UE board often and I pm'd the guy who has them listed but I'm not sure if they have the springs, cause he is selling a set seperatly. Hobbynj has the shock set with standoffs and progressive springs (all sizes) going for $69 complete. That'll be next.

I also noticed that I have two screws that cracked out of the bulkheads. I may just get the ones six has from ACNCM for like $34 for everything.

the acncm bulks are fine.. not the prettiest things or lightest in the world but they work. I'm actually thinking of keeping mine now and lugging the drill press from my friends house over to lighten them up Plus I want to take the drill press to the massive heat sink head I got to shed pounds off that too.

Super shocks are the way to go. I tried lots of other shocks and found the super shocks to be by far the best.
