DFW RC - Home of BYSRacing

What did you do?

How was the RC meet this weekend? I got sick so i couldnt make it.

 

Longer links and 1 tons It was def a successful trip! No one broke, and I think we wheeled from about 9-1:30.

 

Jim did loose a wheel, luckily a non critical wheel. Brett split an axle, but not on the crawler

 

When my truck tumbled and i saw that wheel rolling down the hill I thought i was screwed. Luckily it was just the spare. Hoping the LED lights come in from China this week. No other changes on the horizon for now. Upgrades are cool and will eventually get done, but something to be said for "stock" reliability.

 

Yeah, I’ve gotta grab a couple more screws and investigate what may be some binding in the drive shafts and WRINGO and Katniss will be good to go. Don’t plan on doing much more from here. Need to pull the front bumper and relocate the front lights that are currently on the bumper, but otherwise, should be a pretty capable, solid rig.

 

FINALLY!

 

You’re telling me!!

 

Should be a crawling beast now with the Wraith axles.

So what parts do you have leftover from the SCX axles?

 

Watching 2 broke girls... while RC wrenching

 

Yeah, I’m ready to go play with it and see he difference. I gained 1” per side on track width. I think the tires are just BARELY a little small looking, but doesn’t seem that unproportional in my opinion. (No diff than a taco on 1 tons or any other yota for that matter.) 2.2’s would be too much i think.


Both axles, and the front MIP driveshaft. I was able to use the rear MIP and stock WRAITH shaft on the front. Think I’m gonna try and and flip my motor/trans 180 degrees to see if it helps my driveshaft angles.

That’s exactly how my night went, lmao. That, mike and Molly, and rules of engagement.

 

You need 2.2 wheels now

 

I feel like they’ll look too big. Katniss is on 37x12.5’s, not sure about going to 42x14’s lmao.

 

you go some 2.2s with small tires. 1.9 tires avg up to 3.7 inches, can try a 4.2 inch or so 2.2

 

Ahhh

 

from a couple weekends ago...

 

Get your 42's...
I'll run the Wraith with your truck since its on 44's

 

I dunno. Rather get new shocks than new wheels and tires... there’s lots of money in those wheels and tires I’m currently running, and nothing wrong, other than MAYBE a little small

 

Soooo, uhhhhh, who’s coming tomorrow and when’s the next crawling meet??

 

ill be there tomorrow. DFW meet is this weekend so maybe the week after that?

 

Crawling tomorrow?!
