Jeff,

Are you going to the the show Saturday, Sunday, or both?

jhautz · 10.09.2007, 01:18 PM

Not really sure yet. Kinda depends on how the weekend shakes out. Its not likely that I'll go both days. Last year I was there for 5-6 hours and that was plenty to see what I wanted to see. No need for more than that unless something really blows my mind.

Most likely I'll go on Saturday, Sunday is a regular bash day for me so if I go Saturday I can still play Sunday.

Looks like I will be there on Saturday. If anyone else will be LMK we can hook up there.

Be sure to take lots of pictures for those who aren't going.

Definitely take pictures of the new Traxxas vehicle.

I'll be there on Saturday too with my 4 year old son. I'll probably head over to the Maxamps booth and say hi to those guys. I'm hoping to say hi to the monster himself if he'a around. I have been on here a while and it would be nice to put a face with a name. I'll defenitly be checking out the new Traxxas vehicle.

I'll be shooting a ton of pictures just like I did last year. I'll share them early next week as time allows (reformatting a ton of pics for the web takes time).

Looks like I'm going on Sunday so my 4 year old can come with. He has "mom's day" at his school on Saturday morning and was upset that he'd miss the hobby show so we're going Sunday instead.

Hope to see some of you there!

Man!! I am stuck at work all weekend... :( Would of been kool to meet you guys up there. Have fun!!

Mike_D · 10.20.2007, 09:03 PM

Well i just got back a few hours ago and i must say i am supprised at how many converted brushless vehicles i saw. Novak had a brushless Kyosho buggy, A123 had a nice converted 8ight buggy and there is more i just cannot think of them because i am so tired. But it was a very cool show, almost overwhelming at how big this event is.

Did anyone who was out at the show see this Kyosho buggy at the Novak booth. It had some kind of slipper system in it where the center diff should be. I would like to duplicate this but am unsure how. Anyone have any ideas or know what would be needed to make this?

This car looks pretty nice. I prefer to keep the batts inboard, but this looks pretty solid and I'm sure it handles fine on the track. Also this layout would work great with a couple of hardcase packs like the gold trackpowers.

I would like to try a center slipper...wonder how it drives?

squeeforever · 10.28.2007, 09:53 PM

Horrible...I had one in my JT T-Maxx truggy and HATED it. I sold the roller, wish I hadn't, and bought a LSP-R. Thats a Dominator center slipper I do believe. Same as the JT.

jnev · 10.29.2007, 12:25 AM

Is it true that Mike has a slipper built into the center diff in the works... I beleive I remember seeing a picture of it on here some where.
