firestorm01 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Gave my firestorm a lovely hour long thrashing around my track which mr farmer kindly let me build!! Thankfully my mate was happy to do the refueling!!! Then we swapped so it was his turn to thrash his savage!!!! Oh and the joy of having a air compressor for cleaning!!!!

chewbacca Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Soldered a Deans to a 3s pack. Incorrectly. I've not yet tested my parallel balance board to see if it's dead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khevolution Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 The plan for tonight was to rebuild the front end of the EMB-1 as i believe a stone got jammed up there and out a crack in the main post, but somehow since the strip down and now, i have seem to have lost the bearings for it, so a quick last minute order to MS was made hoping to recieve them before the weekend PS also somehow a HPI Q32 appeared in my basket and i could figure out how to remove it so i had to buy one of them also *sarcastic sigh* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghazghul Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Got some time on the lathe and turned 4 more blanks to thickness for a set of beadlocks. OD on each to do next and then 120 holes to transfer punch and drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistonhead Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Helped with some much needed track maintenance at Cornwall RC Racing near Helston on the way home from work. As well as cleaning and re sanding the astro, sections are getting re profiled to make the track flow and undulate more as it's a bit flat at the moment So far we've made the mid field jump the only choice and changed the ramps to make it a flowing double, we've nearly finished turn 2 and are currently starting changes to turns 3 and 4 as well as the short straight between them 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Fitted warranty rose joint to irp turnbuckle and refitted them back to the 5sc, this time with standoff spacers which seem to give a lot more articulation in the turnbuckles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Yesterday: Ragged PW silly on a couple of loose-surfaced car parks, one of which was actually on 4 different levels and had a few interesting features, the other one was just flat but empty. Both were perfect for the bonkers Hooligan, drifts, slides, donuts and flatout blasts a plenty, including a few multiple barrel rolls. Damage? NONE. Today: Took a shell from bag to painted. It's now tucked up in a box curing overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOFX Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I cleared the shed out so the landlord can see where the rats & damp have trashed it. But I found a set of wheels & tyres that should fit the nitro circus mini monster truck. It might have some grip now . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mond Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) I broke a lower arm. Pretty sure the tree moved in the way at the last minute. But I got to fit these nice Hot Racing sway bars as I broke a stock one Edited June 7, 2015 by mond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Got my best result with my b5m today but I couldn't better it as I was on the wrong tires once it dried up.

Pistonhead Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Went to the track after work to see how the changes are working. Think this short video of one of the Hormanns going round answers that lol.https://vimeo.com/130029348 He was clearing the double happily after he got used to the new layout but missed it with a flat phone battery. More upgrades to the track to come this week with changes made to the start/finish straight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
