    Not going to spoil the F1 or BTCC result, for those who haven't yet seen them. But what I will say is this... BTCC is WAAAAAAAAAAAY better than F1!!

      Yeah that was really **** of him, but there's never been an F1 champion who has been the gentlemen at all times. At least, not since the "gentleman-racers" era of Fangio et al. It's that killer instinct that seperates the winners from the also-rans.

    Just checking for any interest, if I was to try to sell my old Yokomo MR4-TC Custom on here, would anyone be interested?

  3. PraetoR

    Desperately want an HPI Sprint GTi. Any owners willing to sell??

  4. PraetoR

    OK whoever it was who started a thread showing how awesome his Losi 8ight T 2.0 is I hope you're happy! You're going to be costing me a lot of money in the not too distant future, damn you!

    I'm looking to upgrade my Losi XXX-SCT to brushless and run a 3s setup. Given that it's a RWD racing SCT and not for heavy bashing, what turn/KV would people recommend for running 3s? I was thinking around 10 or 12?

      Thank you Valentino :) Would you recommend that setup to someone else then? My friend is going to put the exact same system as me into his HPI Blitz

      using in hong nor crt.5 E convert with mamba max an it hauls, that motor uses a 5mm shaft so you may have too hunt around sourcing pinions use thought was a nitro convert :)

      you got a brushless esc already?

    4. PraetoR

      PraetoR

      Nah I'll buy a whole combo in one go. I might not necessarily be able to get that motor you've recommended, but I'll get one matching it's kv. Thanks for the advise!

  7. PraetoR

    FINALLY got the parts to rebuild my brushless 9t 4370kv Losi High Roller! Fixed it and thought I'd try a 3s lipo in it.... gearbox has now been blown to pieces. Damn.

  8. PraetoR

      Will do. Won't be until around the 5th or 6th though, I'm offshore until then.

  13. PraetoR

    Decided I will buy a Rock Crawler. Only needed a tiny bit more convincing and mini-z-awd just tipped me over the edge! Going to buy the Eben-Racing crawler and will report on it when back on land. Stoked!

      Yeah that's the one, it has a really impressive spec, such as selecting between fwd/rwd/4wd by a switch on the transmitter, and selectable front, rear and 4 wheel steering. Mini-z-awd, on my last status update, when I was going to and fro on the idea, you mentioned how much fun they are and that you fully recommend it. Hence, your fault :P Cool thanks for the invite, appreciate it.

      sounds like a nice idea with the switchable stuff i wish i had some of that stuff with the places we go to

  14. PraetoR

    Should I get a crawler? Should I?? Paid when I get off this boat!

    1. mini-z-awd

      mini-z-awd

      i was the same as you but when i did get one iam glad i did its the most fun ive had with a rc car dare i say it even better than going fast with a nitro or brushless car and ive owned a few of both
