one trick is set the camara to take a pict evey couple of sec or record video and pull the pict out of the video

you have been puting one beating on that car lol

Nice B2...I let one slip thru my hands last yr...The guy only wanted 100 bucks for it...

I made sure I was head in a straight open spot to utilize a finger to shot the camera or take a frame from a video.

So now you want me to build two B2s, as well as a B3????? Yikes!!!!

Okay, will do the full stripdown this weekend, and pile all the parts together to start rebuilding. I wish people would use some consistency in the allen key sizes, though...... pulling the first B2 down, I had to find two specific non-metric allen keys just to pull the rear plate off one chassis..... and I still haven't gotten all the screws out!!!! I miss Schumachers!!!!!!

B3? No B3 just B2's. A true B2 only uses 1/16 allen head on the rear suspension mounts! Later B3 moved to a larger 5/64!

Thanks for the advice guys, but a little too late! I'm heading back to Calgary tomorrow , but I will keep it in mind for next time! The B2 ran great on the beach with Bowtie rears and ribbed fronts only. I honestly thought it would just sink in and diff out, but it flat out ripped and was a blast! I wish I had some action vids for you guys, so sorry!

I don't think I'm beating up this car. Yes I run it allot, but it's kept in perfect running condition and works great! I just do regular maintenance and replace any broken parts!

Looks like I'll be home for quite a few more days Rod, so I can pick up those bodies before I go into the field!

Sweet! Can I give you a few others?

Did you pick up some hot chicks on the island?
