So-Cal Bash in October (?)
 
Who’s up for it ?. :intello:

What dates & times work for everyone (?)…

Have a great one team!..


P.S.
I’ll start:
Sunday the 19th @ 11:00 am (??) :neutral:

jnev 09.23.2008 10:15 PM

The 19th should work for me... but won't know for sure until closer to the date. I should also have all three of my trucks running by then. :yes: The 8ight and CRT.5 are done, but the 8ight-T needs a couple last final parts which I'm about to buy. :yipi:

rschoi_75 09.24.2008 12:19 PM

Hey guys, sorry for being MIA these past few months. I'm in for October. The 19th seems like a good date so far.

cornolio 09.24.2008 01:03 PM

as of now,im good on the 19th

BL_RV0 09.24.2008 01:15 PM

:surprised: The 19th might ACTUALLY WORK for me!!!

MetalMan 09.24.2008 01:17 PM

19th of October looks good for me, for now.

Any ideas on a different location? Not that I don't like LeBard Park, just thinking it'd be nice to go to a different place.

BL_RV0 09.24.2008 01:42 PM

:mdr: How about somewhere closer to me?

jnev 09.24.2008 06:45 PM

Any construction sites around Huntington Beach/Orange County?

TDC57 09.26.2008 01:20 PM

:party: Outstanding guys!.. :party:

So for the following people are attending. :yes:
Jnev
Rschoi_75
MetalMan
Cornolio
Bl_Rvo
TDC & Boy :lol:


I know we’ll got some the LHS guys to join us too (Kyle, Mike & others).. :intello:

Anyone else want to come and beat the beans out of their builds (?).. :mdr:


There are a few construction site in (HB) but they are not mine (sorry).. I’ll stop by and have a chat with the PM’s and see if something can be arraigned.. :wink:

Should be a blast, I also just order up some more Lipo’s so now I should be good to go for 4-6 hrs.. Tee hee..

Have a great weekend team!..

P.S.
As we closer the “D” day (please) shoot out updates regarding who coming and what their bringing..

As me I'm in for the following :oh:

• Electrical extension cords 150’ & distribution box
• BQ
• Cooler with sodas
• And probably 5 or 6 different builds..

BL_RV0 09.26.2008 03:23 PM

What kind of soda?
If you don't bring Dr.pepper I will.

TDC57 09.27.2008 02:47 AM

I'll have a six-pack with your name on it if you show up.. :intello:

Have a great one..

P.S.
Is that your cat (?)..:neutral:

BP-Revo 09.28.2008 03:20 PM

Count me in. Should be plenty of time to get my stuff up and running. I tested my new MMM the other day (stress test) and it worked great. I just have to tweak the gearing a bit to and glue up some new rims and tires and it should be fine good to go! I made up a new ESC mount bracket and everything and it seems to handle quite well. We'll see if I have to tweak weight balance...One of these days I'll hook up my Telemetry again...

The CRT.5 is good to go, I just have to transfer some tires onto different rims, since I have 1 set of good rims with shot tires, and a set of stripped rims with good tires. Go figure.

Turns out my battery I puffed at the last (first) bash is working fine. I guess another characteristics of good LiPo's is that they seem to recover ok?

Matthew_Armeni 09.29.2008 12:56 PM

I think that's a good day for me to get out there, I might be able to convince some others to make the trip from San Diego too.

mambarustler 09.29.2008 01:24 PM

Why do you guys live so far away :neutral: I wish I could go :cry:

That would be great! It's been a while since I've gotten the chance to see the SD crew, and unfortunately going to ARC never worked out for me...

http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_3632.jpg





Enquiring minds want to know.. :whistle:

Have a great week everybody.. :intello:

Shaun.

TDC57 10.07.2008 03:06 AM

Hello... Anyone out there.:neutral:.. Earth to the so-Cal basher.. :eyes:


Ok guys, I wont bring the battle truck and shoot at your builds..:na: :angel:

MetalMan 10.07.2008 11:45 AM

Still here and going!

Byte 10.07.2008 12:24 PM

You want to come with your battle truck? :lol:

Look at those things beside the wheels! :lol:

jnev 10.07.2008 04:21 PM

The date is still good for me. :wink:

Silver_Flame101 10.07.2008 07:11 PM

I'd want to come, but I'm a good 3 hours away here in Central Cali.

BP-Revo 10.08.2008 12:48 AM

Which day is it? I'll be able to come either way but I'd like to know so I can plan for it properly.

TDC57 10.08.2008 12:57 AM

It's on the 19th @ 11:00 ish..

Looking forward to seeing you again Sir..

Have a great one

Shaun.

Matthew_Armeni 10.08.2008 05:04 PM

Is it still being held at LeBard Park or is it going further south?:whistle: Driving up the 5 from San Diego isn't the funnest thing in the world.... Are most people closer to L.A.?

BP-Revo 10.08.2008 06:29 PM

Most people are centralized right around orange county, if I'm not mistaken. Shaun, Metalman and I are all about 5 minutes away from each other.

MetalMan 10.08.2008 06:35 PM

Nobody has posted a different location, so I guess it's still LeBard?

Shaun, BP-Revo, and myself are all within about 10mins. from LeBard, quite closer to L.A. than San Diego. However, if there's another location you guys can think of post it up. We can probably rig some sort of carpooling deal.

Edit: DOH! I took my time with this post and BP beat me to it...

mikey09120 10.09.2008 12:45 AM

i have a stock e-revo(blown titans awaiting brusless)
i would be able to make it
where exactly is it
i may just observe
anybody in coachella valley?

MetalMan 10.09.2008 01:02 AM

Here's a quick link:

If the team has idea's regarding another area I'm wide open and I've got a suburban that will hold like 8 guys or I could take the RV that will hold much more and its got bathroom, kitchen and 3 tv’s, a generator, ect. so I'm good to carpool..:whistle: Just throwing it out there..:wink: you can never have too many options.. :yes:

Have a great one..

jnev 10.12.2008 09:22 PM

Bump... :whistle: Only a week away... :yes: :yipi:

I'm only waiting on some 6.5mm connectors to arrive for the 8ight-T, and all 3 cars will be working. :yipi:

TDC57 10.14.2008 01:43 PM

Josh I've got some connectors if you need them :neutral: (yes there’re the 6.5mm) male, female or both ?? :whistle:

Does anyone need anything else (??).. :neutral:

I'm bringing the RV for convenient sake :wink: (bathroom, electrical, fridge, ETC)..

I'm looking forward to it and (FYI) I've successfully completed field target practice and should be able to shoot at all of your builds with out any damage to mine at all :lol::lol::lol:

Have a great one team and I’ll you SUNDAY!..:intello:


Targeting practice (it’s first time out and yes it did hit the side of a barn)

http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...otingrange.jpg

jnev 10.14.2008 10:04 PM

I actually received the connectors I needed this afternoon so the 8ight-T will definitely be good to go. Just have to solder them up and hopefully I can get a test session before the bash. :yes: But I have a spare ESC with no motor connectors... would you mind parting with a set of female and male? The female would go on the spare ESC, and the males would be for a spare future motor. This is only if you have extras though, and I can pay you at the bash as well. :wink:

As for the spare ESC, its the old version of the Mamba Max with an external BEC, so its a solid 4s ESC. I used in my old 1/8 buggy, Revo, CRT.5, and a couple other trucks. Anyone in need of an ESC is welcome to use it. :yes:

BL_RV0 10.14.2008 10:13 PM

Guys, I realized since my hyper ST is going HV (gonna start a thread soon) and my buggy & GTP aren't running, I don't have anything to drive at the bash.... So... I don't know if I'll come or not. The hyper ST will be done before November's bash though!!

jnev 10.18.2008 03:52 AM

The fleet is ready to rock! :yes: Well, except the 8ight-T as it died a quiet BEC death on its maiden voyage this afternoon.

http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_0686.jpg

rschoi_75 10.18.2008 11:31 AM

looking good Josh. I have a spare ubec and MMM v2 if needed tomorrow. I'll try to bring some soldering equipment as well; just in case.

I'll be bringing the same fleet: XT8, X1-Cr, Crt.5, and a mini or two.

I look forward to seeing everyone there. Hopefully some new faces too. Have a good one.

TDC57 10.18.2008 01:59 PM

This is just a reminder I'm shooting at your builds - No :no: :wink: I mean we bash tomorrow @ 11:00 ish..

See you all there, have a great weekend everybody.. :yipi: :party:

Shaun.

P.S.
I got the skull eye’s a glowing. HHheeee hheeee… :wink:



http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...7/IMG_3717.jpg




OOOoooo :whistle: Mike Mr. Monster (The big kind hearted Man himself) also sent us out all out a gift for the So.Cal basher's..:party::party: You’ll see it tomorrow.. He's such a giver (thanks Mike)..:yipi:
