CosyRC Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I live in Torquay and would like to go bashing with someone and I know a bmx track in Torquay, you out anytime soon? Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autobutcher Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 At last, more rc's! I'm from Newton, me, my lad and mate can meet up with you. Cosy, do you mean the track above King George footy fields ? Was there last weekend, few too many canals between the jumps but a good giggle. Mate cartwheeled his Blackout over the jumps ! When it's dry it's a great track but a real car killer! Have to see if I can free up next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosyRC Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Ermm it's a bmx track in babbacombe, I only know of it, and we need to sort something out lol I may have sat off from work (if I'm lucky so could go for a little while) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autobutcher Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Ahh sweet will be fun then!! I'm not racing yours then lol wouldn't worry about that, I keep losing wheels! Dam nuts won't stay on and keep rounding hexes off. The blackout jumps like house and the boy drives his slash like a kamikaze pilot on work experience!

autobutcher Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) hi guys im from torquay, are u talking about the watcombe BMX track? I know theres also one in decoy newton but last time i went there it was busy with lots of kids on bmx bikes ironically Woohoo, another one! Nice to hear from you Haz, few of us usually go watcombe track, I live 1min from Decoy track and that place is like Fort Knox, 8ft spike fencing, cameras and loads of uppity little scrotes on bikes who start booing if you go within 1/2 mile of 'their' track. 15yrs ago a few of us built that place on donated land, my blood, sweat,skin and a couple of teeth are in the foundations!Local club took it over and caged it all in, now only open couple of hours a week, what a waste! Cosy, I saw chris today, said he'd seen you and don't believe what he says about me, the voices say I'm normal so I keep listening to them!!!!! Oh, and get a Flux, I giggled for the first hour I used it they are that funny, the power is unreal.

CosyRC Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Yea watcombe bmx, I went today and my engine is pissing out fuel from under head button (lost like all power) So need to get another fast.. Chris is a legend lol better than going to rc shop! And yea he said that aswel about flux, I'm looking into flux but I'm gonna keep my xl for my child when it's old enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosyRC Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Yea I saw it !!! He has sold it now. I'm at work all Sunday and I don't really want to be using someone else's car, if it breaks I have to fix it and my own lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autobutcher Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Engines, breaking in, glad I gave up nitro and came over to the dark side, even converted chris! My cars never break, they just have a rest from working, savvy trikes are the future! May bring the ramp out at the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz24 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Dont think I would want to get rid or my nitro, I would just buy another car that is brushless. Whats watcombe like then? never taken a car there before only my bike when I was a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosyRC Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Yea I need to go brushless!! Will do in the near future, also i don't need to go home to refuel lol and haz it seems good fun there I went up there the other day but my car decided it didn't want to move so it decided to just give up, and yea bring the ramp, I will bring spares box haha coz I think someone's car is going to break, probably mine!!

Whats watcombe like then? never taken a car there before only my bike when I was a kid. Tha Watcombe track is great when it's dry and the trail jumps are backflip heaven, also a huge field next to the track with lovely short grass for the 1/5s and tyre ripping speed runs for me. Be nice to meet someone who has knowledge of 1/5s cause my mate hasn't got a clue and has just got a Blackout! Looking forward to this.

CosyRC Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Right little update! Got the breaking in nearly done have ran 3 tanks standing and 2 tanks using half throttle, I have broken 3 pull starters lol I do not use full extension of pull cord, they just break at the handle, fixed them now though, Quick one can you use a cordless drill for A roto start? As I got a roto start from rc shop and it worked for about 10 mins, so I'm not getting another!! Can't wait to get this engine ripping!! peace out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
