    I am so happy I could......

    I was going to stay on the FG line except I kind of like some of the redcat line of stuff. I know some is kind of entry level but some look like fun. I don't have enough space for on road and I don't have anyone around me to race them so it would be a true 1 person hobby for me. I think any...

    I found out wear I put the green stuff in. It wasnt a bad find but is was in the wheel squares and gears. Maybe that is wear I got the idea from using green. Of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most.

    clutch

    I bought it used this spring and it was always like that. As the summer when on it seem to get worse. I was thinking maybe a good cleaning was in order but I thought I should ask. At times I would rev it up and it would not go. Strange. In the next month or so I was going to take it apart...
