Mwuhaha I have other plans too... how about an R/C car computer game? Long story short, I was a game developer, but couldnt get a coder and so had to abandon my project. :( Then discovered Nitro cars! And would like to get back into games again with something less ambitious than this. Went well for half a year, but couldnt see the point continuing if I had no coder. The indie games market is tremendously difficult.

The owners club's fair taken off guys, good work. 9 pages and counting! And some new owners as well. I'm still working on getting one, but I'm not quite there yet.

And if anybodys interested once Hunter's fitted his Hong Nor big bore's, I'll probably have a set going, bought some off andycaap for my Inferno last week, but cos the way the lower arms are they dont line up perfectly, and I dont want to start hacking the arms to bits. They've got a set of blue and white springs and pistons and stand offs.

As well as a Savox 1258 servo, if anybody needs one, only been used a couple of times, so its in good nick.

edited to add: Its now on to 10 pages!

Objective: overtake the rustler owners club thread. if we keep at this rate for a while longer well do it soon enough!

The best part? How we get something out of all being in one place in our own trophy community! Now wheres that user bar I started work on earlier...

i found the treaded part of the cvj to be very fragile , maybe a bad cast or hardening process on mine

thing is the wheels come as ready for the 17 mm hex conversion tho , so why they didnt follow thru as per the buggy :rofl:
