Good to see you like the Sabre. On a whim I bought the nitro version with the idea I would convert to brushless if I didn't get on with nitro. It really is one tough little buggy, it's fast and handles superbly. Not to mention VFM is great!
-
I'll be on the quarry bash providing it's a Sunday, got a couple of nitros I need to fix in the meantime!!
-
Nandas are definatley the best tyre I've used for muddy grass, got them on my buggy and short course. They really hook up well, to the point where rollovers are inevitable while cornering.

Video looks great, good work MidlandsRC,seems you all had a great time. I'm deffo out on the next one, got a Traxxas Slash Nitro & Hong Nor Sabre X3 nitro and they haven't seen much use. Be good to meet some new faces!
-
Bit more notice next time please. I am down in Kent working and not getting back till tomorrow pm, I would of loves to meet up as well. Fingers crossed we can make this a regular thing and I can tag along then. Have fun people!!
-
Thanks for sharing that! I'll look into it. It's getting close to 5ive money now.

Which Racing shocks should I buy ?
brucey45 replied to Jokr90's topic in Short Course & Desert Trucks
Not sure on exact length. You would normally buy fronts and rears. Then a hardware kit depending on the model of truck. What truck do you have. They fit straight on a slash -
Anyone been out lately. I took my rc's down Dudley wood the last week but the track is Unuseable atm, the puddles are really big and deep. Just had a bash around the fields.
-
I have been looking around for one of these second hand, as you can imagine there aren't many about. Do you mind telling me where you got yours please, I only ask as I may buy one new if the price is good! Thanks

I've always found the original Slash bodies to be very tough compared to some of the aftermarket ones

I went with Proline power strokes on all of my slash's, super smooth and very tough, would recommend them to anyone. Got them about -
Good stuff, that's certainly cleared it up for me, I was going to buy them online as they are cheaper but I think I will go and see my lhs as there's a bigger choice. Thanks for your help though
-
Great stuff thanks for the info
-
Thanks for that smeghead, that looks as though it should be deep enough, I'm going to try an 8mm socket tomorrow to see if that works first
-
I haven't at the min, but thanks for the advice. Are you saying just a normal socket will fit? If so I'm going to kick myself for not thinking about using one!! ????

Hi, could anyone tell me what tool they use for glow plug removal when the plug is deeply recessed into the engine ie where it's too deep for a standard tool to reach? Thanks
-
Hope you can help. Can anyone tell me what plug I should be buying for the above engine. Mainly what would be best for the colder weather? Thanks
-
I was but the Mrs has been called into work so I've got little one all day. Have a good one though!
-
We just need to agree on a place then?
-
I'm mainly free on Sundays too!
-
We don't bash there yet mate. We are hoping to very soon if we can all arrange to meet. I have tried to arrange one a few times before but not much interest.
-
Yeah mark you've got it. You have to park at the bottom and walk up the path. Many years ago we could get our landys up the path.
-
Ha ha glad I'm not the only one to be dragged around by my mrs pretending to be interested and enjoying myself. It's on the A449 just before you turn off to kinver. It's opposite, up a bridleway through a small wooded area. The place is massive
-
Good work mate, just getting my rc's winterproof then I'll be sure to pop over and explore. Come to think of it I do have a sand quarry near me and I've never seen a person over there either. It's right by kinver and would be great for bashing
-
mitrab36, I've not been there or even heard of it. Have a look and report back. I'm always up for trying somewhere else
