Rolling burp bro! didn't even get to touch the tune yet 25-30Hp I'd say did this to me???..wow

Thats a real eye sore

Fek yeah, poop happens, people were asking about the upgrades well that aluminum tank paid off and guys asked about the CVD upgrade there's the proof, I'd say even smallbores your gonna need it as well.my truck would have burnt the fek up probably it were the plastic tank???

Thats a real eye sore

It is what it is???

 

[blackrain]

There’s no mods for the axle to keep the pin from coming out?

 

[DougStar]

Lucky you had an alloy tank coz plastic would be toast?

 

[PortCityRC]

There was an o ring that did nothing...pin sheered..these need a driveshaft safety loop somehow..only other thing people do is heat shrink tube right over the entire cups and such..not much to do about this other than upgrade
Sent Mike an email. With all of our questions and concerns and pics of my carnage, we'll see if we can come up with an alternative to waiting for the ddm cvd drive to come back in stock. So I'll know more at about 230am

Yes sir when your rig is a ways away you wouldnt know what's up till you see ??...toast! Bobs your Uncle!. Shite deal all wadded up but paid off IMHO. And this things feking sound is so addictive...I was all smiles till carnage????
200 duckets in 5 minuntes..that's like going to the casino?...I want more ???

Sounds sick bro. Love how the lexan is flexing in the video?

Dude I thought the same thing. Like a drag car shaking on the line?

New tank ordered up from RCMAX..probably be here by tomorrow. Dented tank is for sale at a scratch and dent price?, its not punctured and is still perfectly usable.I'm sure dent can be fixed but I'm not the aluminum tech?@Haric ?

[PortCityRC]

Does the 65cc with the rooster carb comes with air filter or that is a separate purchase?

 

[PortCityRC]

I ended up going with the 80..email Mike @rc max and he will get back to you by AM, I'm not 100% sure if the 90°billet elbow is standard or an option..if you choose the wj71 you'll be using a velocity stack and plumbing out the body like my truck

When i purchased my 65 and went rooster tail 1 year ago the billet air filter was extra. Now the format of the website is different so not sure.

$45+ship sound good John? Was 200 ??

If you scratch and dent another aluminum tank i will buy it. I missed out on this one. Dang it!

 

[PortCityRC]

I played it safe, threw the plastic one in today for round 2.?..but I'll keep you in mind brother @Braap2smoke,make sure get on that @Haric box list if you haven't already, it's a must have?... Soo...Drive train held together so far thanks to @Haric suggestions, picked up some better pins for my driveshaft through McMaster Carr. (This is a temporary fix until the CVD @DDM gets released) but waaay better quality pins.. I did have to shut her down @the end of the run because one of my screws holding the turtle steering brace vibed out and was binding on the screw head. And for those that were wondering, these billet servo savers work flawless as well..because it was activating the saver with it binding...threw some orange loctite on her so that's all fixed up. We'll try this again tomorrow, it's going to be warmer and I can finally start fiddlesticking with the tune and possibly get some speed runs, running 17/24 for gearing but grabbed a set of 18/23 gears also suggested by @Haric to calm the torque down a bit if I keep having issues

A lil quick rip vid?

 

[Seandonato73]

Hoping they get that bodys back in stock soon too.

 

[blackrain]

Man the body looks great simple and clean with the red and black with a nice shine to it

 

[Haric]

Cool man you got her running! Get her tuned up and let it rip????

 

[PortCityRC]

I still have another lexan set to design, been watching @Helijib His builds are A-1. Check out his trophy trucks.??

 

[niz55]

That is one clean and expensive?????
