Woo!!!! :party: :party:

I might be able to come.. I'll have to ask my dad the day before.:whistle:

WHAT!!!:surprised: NO...:no: dont wait until the day before!,:diablo: I've got a son who is 12 (two years younger than you) I think anway as a DAD, that's a NO.NO...:diablo:

Please let him know what you are doing, where you are going, for how long and who your going to be with..:yes: He loves you and wants to know that you'll be safe!!! :intello:

Dont srew it up!..:rofl::rofl:

Haha, fineeee.
I'll tell him two days before?
The thing is about asians, is that if you ask him really early, they say, WHAT!? TELL ME LATA.

I asked my mom yesterday if someone off of my forums could give me a ride to the SoCal bash. She said NO. Non negotiable... :diablo:

well thats to be expected..... they dont "know" them. wht can you do

its a YES!!!!!!
what sucks is that the bash is feb 15 and my e-revo comes out feb 16. oh well. im also gonna have to walk there from the pier. no biggy

Great that you can come! It's not exactly a short walk from the pier... You're looking at more than 5 miles from there. I'm sure one of us would be more than capable of offering you transportation from there, and I might volunteer cuz I think I'm the closest.

When someone pulls up in a 500 benz and picks up her kid for a "field trip with rcs" LOL Id be worried

:whistle: If travis cant do it. I'll do it!..:yes: pm us and let us know.. either way we dont walk in OC.. :rofl::rofl: :wink:

So what are you guys bringing? LeBard has asphalt, dirt, grass and rocks! Im bringing the whole fleet.

Holy &$#@!! I'm in shock. I knew linc had a ton of cars, but most of them aren't even working :lol:. I see 20 what look to be working cars. Thats incredible! How many radio systems do you use/have? I just have 3 cars... CRT.5, 8ight-T, and a D8. My D8 will be working as long as Mike finishes the motor mount on time. :wink: The other two are all ready to go. :yes:

22 cars total, there is an RC18B FT that did not make the photoshoot because it was still being built. Yes all cars are fully functional. I only have 3 transmitter. Airtronics M11 2.4, Futaba 3PM 2.4, and Spectrum DX7 for my rock crawlers.

i dont have to bring anything coz i think you got it covered:lol::lol:
ill probably start on my emaxx so we can run them together,or i should start on my sooo delayed hyper st project

I will bring my radar gun that day in case any of you guys want to clock your cars. I clocked my cars a few weekends ago on the grass and didn't get the insane speeds I hear so much about brushless setups. I think it could be me just gearing really low to start with on these cars.

Losi 8ight T
Tekno RC conversion kit
Mama Monster Max v3
NEU 1515 1y (2200kv)
NEU 4s 5000 MAH Lipo
13/48 gearing
Temps were 120 for ESC, 120 for motor and about 110 for battery after 20 mins on running a track. This car clocked in at 34mph consistently on grass (does wheelies).

Losi 8ight B
Tekno RC conversion kit
Mamba Monster Max v3
NEU 1512 1.5d (2050kv)
NEU 4s 5000 MAH Lipo
14/48 gearin
Temps were 110's across the board after about 20 mins of running on a track. The car clocked in at about 33mph consistently on the grass.

EMaxx
Mamaba Monster Max v3
NEU 1515 1.5d (2700kv)
NEU 4s 5000 MAH Lipo
17/68 gearing
Temps were 110's across the board after about 20 mins of running on a track. The truck does somersaults on dirt! Does back flips when I punch throttle at like half speed. I clocked this guy in at 35mph on the grass.

All cars although reliable are not registering these 50-60mph speeds I hear about. Are these guys with these kinds of speed only doing quick speed passes with insane gearing?

If they are all doing mid 30's on grass/dirt does that mean they are geared correctly? I heard gearing correctly should yield 40mph on asphalt right? Any comments would be appreciated.

i appreciate your help but my mom would rather drop me off than get picked up by strangers. maybe i can take one of those bicycle cabs

You need to gear down to keep the temps right in the grass. 110-120 are excellent temps in the grass, actually. I ran my Revo (with 3905 E-Maxx tranny) @ 22/62 on 4s lipo with the 1515 1.5D and it ran very well on dirt and onroad it was a bit mad. 17/68 is way undergeared for onroad performance.

For higher speed, you also need more voltage. 4s is good for 40-45 top speed, 6s should put you past 60.

EDIT: If you want to run the E-Maxx onroad, 24/58 should be OK with that motor but watch your temps.

:surprised:DAMMMM..... :party:

I going to bring 4 builds but nothing like that!.. :intello: outstanding!.. I also have a RC-Monster Banner that Mike sent me!.. So now we are official.. :yipi::yipi:

Thanks MIke!..:yes:

Let's see: Savage, Z-Car buggy, Rustler, X-Cellerator, Jammin' truggy, rock crawler (maybe), 18t (maybe), XLB (maybe). This could be a very interesting bash with so many vehicles...

Hey is it LeBard park for sure? Shaun and Travis, you guys may want to go check out Shipleys Nature Center in HB. Its but a few minutes from LeBard. You guys may want to check it out. There are dirt hills, big jumps, flat lands, grass lands, and no neighbors to worry about there. Good parking for setup and pitting too. Check it out if you guys can. Slater going West make a left at Goldenwest. Then go into the parking lot on the right side about 1/4 mile down. Maybe something different if you guys are down for it.

Anywhere in HB is fine with me. The place tuclai is describing sounds very interesting, so it would be a nice change.

Just got this email from Mike:
Looks like my D8 will be ready to go after all. :wink:

If weather permits I will see if I can get a quick vid this weekend of the place. Ive been dying to take my new camera out to play!

Hey guys I went out to that park in Huntington Beach earlier today to get some vids of that spot for you guys. There were some people there so I took a total of 6 vids. Check it out and let me know what you guys think about the spot.

the date is feb. 15th right? just want to make sure. should have the rc8 done and my baja ready with its new big bore kit.

SORRY! for some reason I thought it was this weekend DUH!!. I need to go to sleep.

Great news guys! My mom said that if she took me on a "tour" of her home town (long beach) she could take me to the bash on the 15th!! So it looks like I'll be there after all! It's not final but I'll probably be able to make it. :yipi:

Love it. :yipi:

:yipi: EXCELLANT!!! I'm down for a new spot!:yes: and BL_RVO and Rivermaxx are showing up!.. way cool... :party::party:

Should be a BLAST... looking forward to it!..:intello:

A few of us are going out to the place in the vids tomorrow to do some bashing. We will be there around noon. Join if you guys can!
