RCNT Winter Bash '04

[Nitroaddict]

hey - i can't view the vid here at work, due to the fact i am still on WMP 6.4 and can't download the suitable compression due to firewalls. can anyone send me a toned down version?

 

[NCNitro]

That would be great! Thanks mcvickj. I will pm you my address, thanks man

NA said that track was brutal. I completely wasted my rear diff on my Savage, not even rebuildable, unless I change every part except the outer housing. :censored: Looks like a call to hpi is in order.

On my Maxx I bent, yes bent, my Racers Edge titanium front skid. And I have only just begun to survey the weekends damage...:ahh:

I will have some pics up soon, hopefully this evening. I did not get anywhere near the amount of shots mcvickj got, but I will put up what I did get.

It was a GREAT time! Bunch of very cool guys, it was nice meeting you all.

I always said the OFNA's I see run are tuff as nails. They never seem to break.

 

[highlife]

thats 352.00 dollar buggy. 300 for the car, 50.00 for a better servo and 2 bucs for the lost screws.

After watching that video, I haver to say that is probably the BEST track I have seen. I could break poop for hours on that bad dog. One word to the buggy drivers in that video "rythm" you need some!

 

[StrechM]

That is great footage and the track well, it's about as good as it gets. We need a decent bash on the West Coast.

hey blazer - surprisingly, I can get around that track with ease when wanting too. We were just playing around, and i wasn't in the driver's stand while running. Ask MCVickj or Imbroken how i did when i laid down some real laps.

 

[Team 17]

:violin: Talk about braggin!

 

[NCNitro]

or patting yourself on the back, lol.

Hey NA where was this "getting around the track with ease" last weekend?

Yeah I figured as much, it is your local track wich happens to be hard as hell so I am sure you get great practice.

 

[Nitroaddict]

thing is a friggin beast. good thing about that track is that after u drive it awhile, you race at other tracks, and they are easy as pie.

 

[Rex2342]

Looks like you guys had lots of fun!!!! So when and where is the next bash gonna be NA????I thought I read something somewhere about Buffalo NY??If so i'll be there as it's a shorter drive for me!Hopefully i'll have my new buggy picked out an running by then!

 

[Nitroaddict]

Hopefully work won't be too heavy for me at that time. One thing is for sure, Buffalo is close enough for me to drive! If I knew about the first one, I would've been there.

Yea its close enough but its a pretty full day of driving one way. Probably between 8-10 hours depending on traffic and speed. Me and Imbroken took 2 days to get there just because we wanted to and I think about 7 hours to get back which wasn't too bad.
