20th Feb 2011
 

Thanks to the Titchfield commitee for a good fun days racing, some good banter and good clean racing.

Nice to see you racing Chris, hopefully you'll have one of those Durango's ready for the next meet after Clanfield.

Thanks Chris

Also thanks to the guys who took the load of Steve, Julian and myself today :)

Enabled us to wrench the cars trackside for once.

So it's going to be a Durango gathering at this rate..... Who else is getting a Durango?? (I might have my spare 410R up for sale) If not give Simon a call at RCLazy

Will every one stop tempting me, my wallet can't take it!:lol:

Great day once again, good banter and no breakages to the Rat once more.

Go on John, you know you want to :thumbsup:

You know you want to ;)

Nice Rango etc etc. Mix it with the other 1/8th boys and maybe a few of us other 1/10th boys bringing up the rear.

Another one to take up the SteveB challenge for 2011 - i.e. beat him...

Over 2010 I think he was beaten three times and is currently unbeaten in 2011 on the meeting overalls.

durango
 

John might be tempted to sell you one of mine, you know you want too?

Is he tempted yet :p

Very...:drool:

I have my spare 410r coming up for sale...


Results should be up

Thought you were quicker the meeting before or did you have gremlins last Sunday?

Get the Alu front and rear braces, ghea pistons and the tresrey servo saver.

anyone changed their server horn?

Um, bit of both tbh-Had x2 occasions when dumb thumbs came in resulting in popping off ball cups. So that didn't help and didn't get into much of a rhythm tbh and was got into a few tangles on the 1st lap. So by then steve was gone. And was just chasing him and battling with Dan. A good start is crucial, specially in 1/10th too.

I have a alu one Im going to put on it, as somehow stripped the plastic one-a few weeks back.. without even using the car WTF!. So ordered some Hudy one's for my Agama A8. So will replace the cheaper Alu one of that, and onto the rango.

Who next for durango? A bit common now :p

Phil Williams has one too.

The more the better, but I'm biased!

I might have to give my 'R a run this coming Sunday... 4wd seems to be where all the action is!

We'll have to make a Durango heat! LOL

I'm gonna try some dBoots on it too I think, got some coming into stock tomorrow.

The Multibytes are excellent on astro wet or dry I'm told...

Free testing for the commitee members ??? :p

Simon I have tried them out already, in the wet they are unpredictable with variing levels of grip all the way up to grip roll in the wet..........yes thats right grip roll in the wet !

In the dry they are a joke, massive grip roll everywhere...

but you have a go and see how you get on, will be interesting to hear how you get on

Yeah I would be interested to see how you get on, as I can get them from RCDisco for cheap. I have been tempted to try them.

oh hold on, its the Terrabytes I have, not the Multibytes. :woot:

Yeah, Terrabytes are the Minipin equivalents, and the Multibytes the minispike equivalent.

Yeah im tempted to try some soon, why my selection gets worn out..

I used to run Xray Simon, but recently got a drive with Nemoracing to run the Agama A8 Evo.

Results all up and links fixed etc

What brand oils are you guys running as have found the losi oil thicker than ultimate.

Those with Durangos I'm selling my ultimate racing oils this weekend

15
12.5
10
7

Come and see me if interested on Sunday.

Diff/Shock I run: Fastrax Generally

But will be switching to Xray Oils shortly.As can now get them via RCDisco. And when I have tried them before, they have seemed to last longer. And most vouch at how consistent they are from WT to WT.

I'll be going with Losi, but will be interested in your XRay thoughts.

I'm a fan of the AE oils myself, both diff and shock. Very consistent from batch to batch, easy to get hold of and they now do half weight shock oils as well.

The Xray oils aint cheap. Jamie won't care about that though ;-)

rcLazy are stocking AE, Losi and Schumacher oils, both diff and shock in all the popular weights.

Think I'll just stick with Losi oils all round then.

Certainly for shocks, diffs mmm we'll see as I can see myself back with ball diffs in the not too distant future

And of course, we can meet all your ball diff needs. Balls, plates, greases.
