Re: Track time (28 replies, posted in NASTE)
Thanks for letting those that braved the drive over play on the track... looks like my trans am and revo slot proxy cars are good runners. not so for the fly and gt3 cars... i did tear down the fly car and can see were the motor shaft was rubbing the tire. was that enough to slow it down that almost full second I was off your laps ???? or was the motor really a dog. geared 12 /33 18mm spur and 6.75mm nsr pinion... and of course I had way to much lead in the beast also, should of stuck it on the scale but it most likey would of maxed it out.....

I was looking forward to racing today. I resoldered my Sportsman chassis and narrowed the front axle some more along with a new motor. I also transformed my truck from a 4x4 to a low rider in an effort to make it handle better. I hadn’t noticed how high the chassis rode but thanks to Bill for pointing it out. Sadly a change in plans has made it difficult for me to make it today

nobody made the race ricco covid19 restriction can be thanked for another cancelled race

Well, I would be holding races if my Airbnb renovation was progressing or finished. It seems as if the project is cursed...first contractor pulled out the day before he was supposed to start construction. Neighbor contractor lost a gig, so was overjoyed that he could work on our project. Yay!! But...his helper had back issues and had to have surgery, so it was "go it alone". Then he got concrete dust in his eyes, and was sidelined for a week. Then the wildfires made the air quality in our area unbreatheable....lost another week. Got his son to help out, son slipped in the bathtub and threw out HIS back....back to "go it alone." Plumber ordered the wrong shower, took six weeks to get the new one. Roll-up doors factory is behind because of...wildfires...doors are 3 weeks late. Contractor got his son back and....suffered a bout of congestive heart failure. We have had no work done now for the last 2 weeks, and the project that was supposed to be STARTED last December and finished by the summer looks like it will take until the end of the year or possibly February. Who cursed me?
I can relate. been waiting 4 weeks to get my kitchen and dinner room done. still waiting. getting take out is getting old really fast.
