    Thing Won't Come Apart

    If the head is stripped, you can cut a slot in the head with a Dremmel tool and a cutoff wheel. Then you can use a standard flat head screwdriver to get them out.

    Keep stripping gears!! ARGH!!!!

    There's really only a few reasons a gear will strip. Mesh messed up teeth dirt or little rocks up in the gears. I always set my mesh with the first gear spur removed, that way I always get my second gear mesh just right and then install the first gear spur. I was going through 2nd...

    Opinions: How long before attempting an actual race?

    A couple things I've learned: 1. There's ALWAYS someone faster than you. 2. Don't try to race that guy, you'll just end up crashing. Maybe both of you. (he wont like that) 3. For off road racing, you don't have to have the fastest truck to win the race. Crash less than everyone else and...

    Power Supply Brainstorm.

    I use a PC power supply that I converted for my ICE charger and it works perfect. I get about 10 amps on the 12 volt side which is enough for me.

    Sacramento CA. area street racers

    Now thats it's kinda cold, softer foams are recomended. 32 to 37 shore will be best. In the summer, you can run a little harder compound.

    Tuned Pipe

    That pipe is actually tuned for On-Road applications where you want more high end speed. You want to get an Off-Road pipe thats tuned for more low end power. Typically, an Off-Road pipe will have more taper from the small end to the wide part. An On-Road pipe will have less taper or none at...

    Thinking about buying spectrum radio

    The Spektrum system is great. The DX3 is lacking some important features that some other radios have but as fas as the Spektrum system itself, It's the greatest thing since peanut butter. Of all the things I like, the fact that I NEVER have to ask "what channel are you on?" I never have...

    Engine carnage (pic)

    Sometimes these things happen. O-Well. I get the feeling that this engine was not broken in properly. I never could get it to idle right anyway but it ran great while it lasted! Does anybody know if there is any differece in the block or the mounting holes between a .21 and a .27? I...

    Help I have a problem

    Yeah, try to lean the low end needle a bit. Sounds like it's loading up and when you hit the gas it just chokes itself with too much fuel. If, on the other hand, it revs up then cuts out, you might be too lean on the high speed needle.
