I hope I did, haven't caught a break in 6 months ???

Yeah I went to start it and it smelled like gas and I just happened to look at the grommet and there it was.I have some stuff in the mail so it should be fixed soon.The Vekta is a rig with a bunch of issues and they pop up from time to time but that happens to most rigs.I would just like to get to a point where I can take it out a couple of times before it breaks.

 

[John Parks]

Likely had a split in it from install, then the added pressure from the lines and the tank split it.

 

[siblues]

Yeah I have a new one and some lines and a winged clunk coming from DDM.I want to get a few runs in with no problems before I drop some dime on a new motor set up which is coming real soon.

 

[siblues]

Just picked up a few more parts and there should be a few more to come

 

[siblues]

I think I am going to pull the trigger tonight on the pro chassis and see if I can hold on till the wheels are released to order the wheels and 50gt as a package.

Sounds like a plan!??

 

[siblues]

Whelp spoke to John at Detroit and he said he would take care of me when I bout the RcMax and wheels so the chassis and Vertigo trailing arm mounts are on their way.Whoo Hoo I am excited to see all that bling.

 

[Haric]

That’s awesome Antonio!??
Did you pre-order the wheels thru John?

 

[siblues]

No I talked to him and told him he has to save a set and a 50gt for me because as soon as the wheels are in they will both be paid for.He said they are experiencing some trouble with the wheels because of the many different parts that make up all the wheels but he said they should be ready to go soon.It sounds like maybe one of the parts being made didn't get finished in time or maybe got hung up in shipping but it sounds like they should be ready to go any day now.

 

[siblues]

Hey do RcMax motors come with the linkage included or will I have to bend my own?

Yes

 

[Haric]

Throttle linkage included, with a fancy mount for the throttle. And use your stock linkage for brake

 

[siblues]

Thanks brotha that answers my question perfectly.

 

[siblues]

Damn I was excited that the chassis was supposed to be here today but at the last minute Fedex delayed the package and it won't be here till Wednesday so that will probably hold me up maybe a week or two because I will be tied up with work for the next month or so but who knows.

Yeah fedex is absolute ?????? imo.

 

[siblues]

Yeah Fedex is the worst ever with USPS running a close second.I guess I will have to wait and see if I can get a Christmas deal.I do have a nice Christmas bonus coming so that should help.

 

[siblues]

Here are some pics of what I received today and I am so tempted to start assembling stuff but I will have to try my best to not jump the gun.
