It was WES, X-god doesnt race at my tracks that are close.
I've only met X-god one time, he's much faster than wes.
And Muscles just runs nitro and that's it, he doesnt like electric.

I noticed Jimmy has asked X-god questions on rctech,
keep it up Jimmy he's not that hard to find.

How fast is X-God?

[mes]

Worst for me was the Tamiya Manta Ray. I hated it the moment it was built, the front dogbones only lasted for approx 5 battery loads, it was extremely slow and boring to drive with the stock motor. Maybe I only felt this way because of the Astute I had before: fun to built, fun to drive - except for the rear suspension and the fragile front plate maybe...

The best time I had so far with an RC car must have been with my Xray T1R, because at that time it took me only five minutes to get to the track - if the traffic lights were red!
It was also the only car that took me into an A-main, in which my result was, err, below average.

Sorry for the late response.
He always makes the A-main, that's all I'm gonna say.
I'm usually in the B-main Yet I only have a couple years experience
whereas most of the people on rctech have been doing this a long time.
There are people I know that have been doing this hobby since they
were 8 years old or younger. Most race every single week, which I'll
get burned out if I raced every week. I've only been to a couple trophy
races and that's it. Each time I've came close to getting a trophy but
everytime I fall short. Not a big deal to me, all I can do is keep trying.

Don't burn yourself out bmag, keep it moist my friend

[Garry Driffill]

'Moist' and 'B-Mag' in one sentence - Only Lee-Mag can pull that off haha!

B-Mag,

Do you have any trophy shots of X-God,
Does he have facial hair like Jenson Button?, Does
this make him faster than Wez?

Please let me know.

No I dont, but I have his pit space it's pretty sweet
All you see is the tires, charger and light he was using back in 2008

Yes he has facial hair, so do I, but I dont know who Jenson Button is?
Having facial hair doesnt make you faster...lol you are ace.

[Lee]

Ooooh Bmag, what lamp is he using for the '09 season?

[johnboy]

b-mag ive noticed the tyres under the lamp do you put them their to heat up your tyres so you can win the a-main beating wez and x-god

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Beats me Johnboy, I heard it makes you see better when you have poor eyesight. But X-God doesnt wear glasses so?
If you want to talk to him directly use this link.
http://www.rctech.net/forum/kansas-m...aceway-56.html
He obviously lives in Missouri USA. 2 states away from me.
He would get mad at me if I posted in that thread so it's best I stay out of it.
Now if you want to go ahead he wont get mad at you guys.

[Lee]

Why does he get mad at you Brian? I thought you were a pro racer, some would even call you special

[B44&501xRacerEX]

Nope not pro, just race against pro's.
My RC driving skills have improved over the last year racing with them.
Sometimes you have a good day and a bad day. All I do is pull laps and
dont concentrate on the other drivers. Some people race so good that
they can have a distraction and still finish 1st place.
I dont know how many times I've seen that, alot of times.

Have you raced Ryan Lutz Lee? I recently saw of video of him, that is some
driving I have never seen before.

[burgie]

who is X-god?

I bet lee could beat him - I wear glasses, so I probably couldn't beat him, but lee could.

i heard he was the stigs american cousin

[burgie]

I didn't know that. If he is stigs american cousin, the maybe lee could not beat him, but i bet Northy could.

if northy races on tracks with left and right corners he has a good chance

[burgie]

yeah, they are the hardest parts of any track. that and straight straights. I'll bet even Wez would struggle on them from what I have read.

If Lee and Northy have raced at a Ifmar worlds race then I'll say yes, because
X-god never has. One of the fastest guys from my area went to OCRC and
finished in 108th place. Yet OCRC is one of the big races. They might have
had at least 500 entries.

[adey]

my thoughts on best and worst 2wd would be the kyosho ultima pro x as the worst (god it was bad),and rc10b3 worlds for the best. I sometimes still use it. In 4wd i would say the early predator international as the worst. It was so fragile. As the best i would say the xx4. I know its got faults but it goes great even today.

[Big G]

I rejoined the hobby with a ex-craggy mr4bc and didn't really get on with it. it could be my bad driving getting use to it. I gave it back after I'd broken my 2nd hard to find part.

ended up having to buy another on ebay to get the spares.

My sc10 seemed to love eating idle gears
