    Notice how the center of the tyres on the front are wearing out. That is because of centrifugal force makes them balloon and only wears that part of the tyre. These have only done about 6 kilometers and they are buggered.




    Setup...
    Tamiya Mini Cooper M03 LWB, 6000kv motor, 3s Turnigy nanotech = 77.1 kph or 47.9 mph

      That was the last test I can do with the cars as I have gone as fast as I can go with what I have got. I need a sensored motor and esc to go faster. Some of them are 11,000 kv. Cars are not in my blood like boats are. I have lots of hours up on my 4 channel glider now but it is getting warmer and I am thinking boats again. Not a lot of fun in -3 degree mornings at the lake. Getting old I think.

          I find Rock Crawling to be a perfect blend with Boats, lots of fun both RC and 1to1

              That is on the Rubicon trail close to Lake Tahoe on the south west side. I just came back from there two weeks ago.

                        Attention Chuck

                        The prop arrived this morning. A very clean job and I must say I am very impressed. I am hoping to test it this weekend.
                        Thank you very much

                              This is the prop for my Packers Pussy Douggie and that boat goes exactly where I want it to, within 50 meters anyway and that makes it reasonably accurate
                              Beautiful spring day outside. Full sun and 17.5 degrees. Makes me want to pop down to the nudist beach and catch them while they are still white and supple.
                              Hope the ladies are treating you well my friend.

                                The ladies are banging on my door, but when I appear with a fire exinguisher ....they then piss off as if they were the best athletes in the world
