cover all the holes up as well mate, with the thin sticky plastic, will help stop the ingress of dirt as well. just rip it off and reapply when it gets grubby.

mind you, these things get abused so no real point in wrapping it up in wool to be honest!!!!!
especially if "Stock Car Tiny" is in the vicinity!!!! hahahahaha

had my k4.6 hpi engine posted today.........Savages

Tiny. does that mean you acknowledge the savage as a beast mate, or just a big piece of metal




If all works out to plan, the Savage may be as fast as the Jato

just got to work on the suspension, I have ordered a 3 speed HPI uprated gear box so hopefully no more of me copying The Pope on his knees

Well, what can i say,

Ive just had the best rip up ive ever had with a nitro RC car.

Tiny and I had a spur of the moment outing and setup a small grasstrack race circuit over Mayland park. What a giggle that was.

Only damage of the day is a blown jato gearbox on my car that happend right at the end of our session. Hopefully i can strip it tonight and maybe get out tomorrow.

Either way it didnt dampen the best night ive had in ages.

Top stuff guv, cant wait to do it again

Feeling a bit fed-up with it all at the moment. Gonna keep expecting the next engine (assuming I get one ) to go pop at any moment.

It's been sent off to Traxxas for inspection.

Spoke to Traxxas UK today to give them a bit of history on it and also sent a massive email detailing everything about it and how much fuel including what make to help them assess it.

The initial chat with the Traxxas guy didn't sound too promising though to be honest.
