ChitownRC

No pictures of the LSP as I still need a couple more parts and to actually do the rebuild, but here are the goodies that have shown up already. Still need to get a backplate for the motor, knuckles, and a screw kit. I will also pick up some wheels and tires for outdoor season.







New Tank and Hub Carriers


Diff and Shock Fluid




Boa Clay's

man why buy that chit CA glue lol

I didn't specify which CA when I ordered it. It doesn't dry as fast as some of the other stuff but it worked fine because I wasn't in a big hury....

nah i mean i just never trust the off brand stuff

I know what yo umean. Hopefully it will work allright though. It seems to be. I was pulling at the bead and it didn't seem like it's going to give at all. And I like how out of all the good stuff I buy, you pick out the $2 bottle of CA. Haha....

lol well the other stuff is ok, shoulda been a werks motor but oh well lol

Hahaha!! Instead I bought a well refined Italian motor. And dang.... after putting this thing all back together and getting a new starter box I'm going to need to get a new radio finally. That antenna has really started to bother me.

ya get with the times man! spend it like u got it hahahaha

man time for me to get a new hobby! LOL j/k

Haha.... why now??


And Mike.... hopefully my classload stays like it is so I can keep working. Right now I can work as many hours as I want at the bike shop so it will help.

ya i wish i didnt have to go to class lol

looking good. i also need to basicaly do a rebuild on my buggy

man poor kid, ponch really beat that thing huh lmao

naw...well yeah but i have no clue what oils are in anything, so i want to replace everything with the right stuff

good plan, the setup i gave u was pretty solid, that car didnt really respond much to setup changes so pretty much just drive it. I know somebody along the way just inverted all the diff oils and had like 257 and had the same lap times lol

are the LsP c-hubs that weak, or just stocking up???? looking good man, its always nice to see a box of goodies show up

They are one of the only weak points, so I was stocking up. :-)

i have that same charger, and love it. never had an issue with it. alot of variation is available so it can charge basically any pack you plug into it, as long as its ni-cd or ni-mh. especially without havingto unsolder or make adapters to charge different types of batteries with different connectors, i live being able to just unplug whatever adapter i have and switch em out.

Now all I need is the adapters!! Haha. It comes with the tamiya one.... which I can't use right now. When I get a new box with stick packs it will help though. Mike is shipping me a lead for the glow starter, and I need to somehow pick up a servo extension to charge my reciever pack.

Oh... and reguarding the hub carriers. I think I was breaking most of them due to my wide offset wheels. I went to zero offset so hopefully I am ok now. They are really hard, but fairly brittle and with the aluminum arms they become the weak point. At under $5 a pair though I can afford to have a few extras.

They're the weak link if you drive like dan! lol, I never had a DNF due to broken c-hubs with the LSP that I had (6 months worth of racing).

Damnit Dimo!! Haha. Rob can vouch for me. He saw first hand how easy it broke when I just brushed the wall. down the front straight at the party. The wide offset wheels put too much leverage on them. I haven't broken the Kyosho ones though. I don't think I will have a problem when I run the zero offset wheels. I'll be ready this year.

Where did you get the diff oil's? gotta get me some I have a few receiver plugs in my mess I call a workstation. If i find one, you can have it. I'll let you know.

All of that stuff was ordered through our very own, raffle throwing, SlowRevo.

And thanks on the reciever plug.
