Great ideas how they are making thing for the home people. Might hurt the big industry or it might help with people testing trying then going to bigger. either way cool stuff.

one way can be a rpm bearing cleaner. holds it in a housing, spey a rc cleaner into the tip. like perfomrance plus. Then add some bearing oil and spin to lubricate. One i do it.

iirc the 2 wire is more versatale than the 3 wire. its also more, and usually harder to get

If any old school BMX'rs recall this name. Not only did he ride. He is the owner of MOtorhead Raceway rc track here in San Jacinto/Hemit. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c366/alienscortergt/ronhouse82ad_zpslflkbuvb.jpg He and Eddie Fiola http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c366/alienscortergt/793253...

got one with a M2 chassis going myself. But i think i am using an older yr4 top deck with no adjustble spring setup, so i cna still use the old school caps. and have aftermarket towers on it. tcs, just need to complete the diffs. i have a picture somewhere, the m2 chassis was a few mm shorter than a...

and if you are looking for a dirt track oval car. check the tracks classes. i lknow out at one fo the track here, there was a 1/10th scale nitro truck class. so there are kits to make it into one.

Now it's Novak's turn I guess. Although their lineup really has n...
