Mabrook, nice car Ian!
Welcome to 4WD TC driving

Just remember, the bigger the speed, the bigger the crash very happy

And get tires!
For the temp we're running at, get 40's.
Preferably tires with some airgap in it to prevent overheating.

I have an unshakeable faith in Gorilla glue, I am using right now to reattach the king ping mount on my M04

Let see just how good it is (or isn't) next week - not deliberate crash tests please.

Order some more parts man! You will just disappoint yourself when you go all the way to the track to be rewarded with another needless break in parts....and fun smile

What actually broke? I have so many parts here that there is every chance I will have a spare.....show me a pic or a part number.....will have a looksee....

I am liking the M04, but I am still more interested in the fun that the M03 puts on the table....might have to get my NIB out and build it up....

Ian, I dunno what gearing you were using in your TC, but it looked to me like the speed down the main straight was ver similar to my 13T......now thats what we need, some nice controllable racing! If you have any of those Kimbrough savers, bring one down with you, my M04 one is just not making te grade....

Lance, 13T motor waiting for you, but be aware the calibration requires some TINKERING compared to what we are used to, .....will help out though.

Ed, get the 13T back in your tourer, and get a silvercan or a ST in the F1 car, I might be tempted to bring mine down next time, I like the F1's for sure....

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Mon Jul 23, 2012 1:28 am

Andy, the part that broke is where the kingpin passes through the rear chassis half on the M04. I have a spare chassis, but will try gorilla glue first.

As for the M03s, we all have them, they used to be the most fun so lets figure out how to make them fun again at ProRC. Use this thread for the purpose -

The yeah racing tyres while rubbish everywhere else, work very well at Pro RC.

Yeah we will revive the FWD mini racing for sure...

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Mon Jul 23, 2012 2:15 am

@Andy, I'll be there this Saturday and collect the combo. Thanks!

For the mean time, I have installed a 12T Tamiya BL combo. very happy

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Mon Jul 23, 2012 3:47 am

Hi Andy,

Please bring the knuckle arms for the m04.
Otherwise, I just can t stock enough kingpins.

On the F1, I m still shy for a brushed ESC.
The 13t HW on it is too powerfull. Can t get the rear planted enough.
So, I will put it back on the TC

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Mon Jul 23, 2012 1:17 pm

Ed,
I think I have a Tamiya ESC around, will bring it down, and will look gor those knuckles. If I don't have stock ones, I might have a set of yeah racing or 3racing.

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Mon Jul 23, 2012 9:33 pm

ok, im in on saturday @ 5:30pm for some mini and GT action!

see you there

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Thu Jul 26, 2012 4:31 pm

Some of us are heading out to the ProRC track later.

The more, the MANY-er.. very happy

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Thu Jul 26, 2012 4:44 pm

Today?

Subject: Re: Mini & Touring Weekenders Thu Jul 26, 2012 5:17 pm

I'm in for Saturday and was planning to bring the F1 with me besides the 10.5T TC.

Just wondering, who will be bringing their 13T HW TC?
If none, then I will leave mine at the shelf.

Tx Andy,

I found out that my old Nosram brushless ESC can be used for brushed as well very happy

So my F1 is ready for Saturday.

The alloy knuckels for M04, yes, I'm interested!
