bringing buggy out for 1st time this year

[dpk136]

Hey everyone. i was going to bring out my buggy this weekend, but it's snowing here and very cold. But anyways, back to my question. Before i bring it out again, what should i do to it to ensure a good year. should i change the oil in the shocks? What about the diffs?

Thanks,
David

i would change the shock oil .. and it rain here all day. curtis

[mikeburgin]

you should change the shock and dif oils every couple of race meetings, not just once a year

doin that now, down to a bare chassis, few hrs later. only all the arms and knuckles are on. diffs cases, driveshafts, and upper controls arms next for the ole storm pro.

5-7-2 here, seems to work for me. used to use 3-5-1 when i had a significantly weaker motor.

I see your from Meadville,I grew up in Greenville. Any tracks out in the area? I get out that way a couple times a year,maybe I can bring my RC's and play!

jeff, thinkin bout goin to BnJ on sunday to run (have 2 work fri nite and 1/2 day sat). sound like somethin u'd be interested in? begs another question. buggies or MTs. chris gave me some beef bout keep the SUT (despite the CE comin out). idk.

just a thought. best of luck to all breakin out their stuff to race this yr!

No, there's no tracks really. the only other people up here that are really into RC are tractor pullers. More kids have started getting into it, but until their is a track in the area, i will just play on my 50 acres of woods.

well w/truck on f/s block now and deciding 2nite that i wont rebuild my 'spare-parts' buggy, i'm gonna b in market for a new buggy. so any1 out there who needs GS stuff, lemme know.

[psunitro]

LOL,tell me what all you got Ryan!! How much you looking to get for the SUT as well!!!

[beason]

i think jon2 does.. pm him..

[UltegraSTI]

i've been talkin 2 jon, he needs some stuff. truggy depends on what combination of stuff some1 wants. motors, wheels/tires (not urs jeff ), radio, etc etc. i'm flexible. i have alot jeff, but ur wife my end you haha.

on another note more on topic,

regular mbx5 or jammin pro (mayhem pro maybe)? those are the contenders.

reg 777 is a waste in my eyes, and other new buggies are not out yet or soon.

dont have cheese for prospec or xb8 or special 1.

thoughts, this will be my only car. stayin at 1 car no matter how much fun trucks look. i cant afford it even if they share so much in common.
