Did that before I even put fuel in the motor

Well the work has begun on the CRT. Should have everything from a main tomorrow.

LOL Where'd you get that little jack from ? Thats pretty cool.

yeah it is...............I could use one

Pep boys sells it for 24.99. I saw that and instantly thought about the rc's. Its a real working racing jack. Not meant to be used, more of a display peice but for the rc's its perfect.

Here's some vids of me practicing with my Jammin minutes after compleating the heat cycle break in...

Nice, clean driving bro, where is spare time raceway?

That vid is a perfect example of "slow is fast". See the buggy doing all it can to stay in front and the CRT could still beat it taking it nice and easy.

About 2 hours west of chicago off of interstate 80 like your heading to Iowa....Actually I think its almost halfway in the middle of the state on I-80 or very close....The name of the town is Princeton

Needless to say this track is 30 min away from me, wich is why I dont make it to Leisure Hours very often since it takes me about 2 hours or so to get to the track.

well crt is ready for the race. Figured out all my little problems and its good to go. Never use a mccoy 59 plus in the plus 21-5 engine. It will do nothing but overheat the motor. Mccoy 8 or OD99 plug is were its at. Preferably the OD99

only problem is OD99's are scares right now.. They are being distributed by a new company

I just bought 7 of them last night.

From where???


( Ryan, Im watching Malcom in the Middle right now and you look exactley like dewey!!! LOL!!!! Sorry just noticed!)

a-main hobbies. I bought him out of plugs lol. And I know about the dewey thing. I used to get that at work all the time lol.

I like those plugs the best... Ive got mc-8's now

if you need/want one I can let ya take 1 or 2 of them.

Thanks lil bud... But these will work .

Mich, I'll take you up on that if you'll sell me one or two???
Last weekend I had so many plug problems trying to find one that would work like the OD99....I didnt get to run the full 5min in any of my heats all night, the main was just as bad.
They didnt have any OD99's at the track so I tried using 3 different plugs, mc8, os, and rossi #6, all with no luck.

I had them right down to order up some rossi #5's, we'll see if he did it.
My original #5 lasted through break-in and over a gallon after that
Ive been using OD99's lately though, because they work ok and rossi #5's are hard to find.

ok eric, I can part with 2 if you need them. 12 bucks and il have them at the race for the cure on friday morning at like 7am.

Cool, thanks.
Just wondering, what plug did your plus 21-5 come with?
Did it go out on you already?

Ryan you are going ot be real early on Friday, practice doesnt start til 10.

no idea what it came with and no idea were or what happened with it lol. Im thinking about 7-8 to get stuff setup G. Just waiting for the word and time and im there.

Well drove the crt all day today and wow. This truck is fast on the track. Easily blows away the revo. Plus 21-5 is a real power house. I had no problems clearing jumps from right in front of the jumps without moving. Made a few changes and im really happy with the truck.

the revo out performed the CRT today, or am I mistaken?

today it did, in practice it didnt. Changed my clutch springs and put some .9 on there so il see how that goes tomorrow. Revo tq'ed and crt is 8th overall. I dont think thats to bad for the first time ever on the track with the crt. First time driving a truggy, any 1/8th scale truck, and big block.
