  1. Thanks, but that's quite a big more than I wanted to spend....or the wife will allow
  2. Hi I am looking for a set of mounted tyres for my Traxxas Stampede. I may also be interested in any other spares available such as body shells. Thanks Jon
  3. I will be sure to sacrifice a virgin maiden in your honour
  4. Hi, I took my stampede out (as the sun is finally out), flew off a few big jumps etc, now it won't move, just a high pitched squeal. If I lift the car up, the wheels will spin but it won't move when it's on the ground. I have tried adjusting the slipper clutch (no success), wondered if I have stripped a gear or something? Any ideas?
  5. The BMX track is okay, bit small and very muddy as it is on a flood plane. We are just waiting for the weather to brighten up a bit before taking the cars out there again. Let me know if you're thinking of going down as I live in Rugby.
  6. No, its on Butlers leap. If you drive past the park (where the fireworks were) with park on your right, head down the hill, turn left at the lights and the bmx track is on the righthandside as you get to the floodplane. Just waiting (like everyone else) for some dry weather.
  7. Hi Just got back into RC with my young son. Always on the lookout for decent spots in and around Rugby. We tend to use the BMX and other areas near Butlers Leap.
  8. I get down to the BMX track in Rugby as well. Great for 1/10. Let me know if you are going down.
  9. I keep hearing about these RPM parts, do they make a better set of bearings and is it worth upgrading them if I'm going to strip it anyway?
  10. I am in Rugby and always open to a bit of help if there's any out there. I kinda hoped It was going to be a bit tougher to break than this to be honest, I've only had it a couple of weeks. Thanks for all the advice, I appreciate the help.
  11. WD40 had indeed appeared to be my friend up to now. 4 inches of snow would probably stop most things I guess. I hadn't dared strip anything down yet as I am new to all this, but if you all think its simple enough -maybe I'll give it a go if a squirt and a dry out doesn't work.
  12. Bugger. Perhaps taking it out for a hammering in the snow was a bad idea
  13. Hi, Please excuse my ignorance. I have recently bought a Traxxas stampede XL-5 and have a query on the drive to the rear wheels. I am not sure if something is wrong but the drive seems to be coming mainly from the right rear wheel. The right rear wheel will spin freely, but the left rear is much stiffer and will not freely spin. I hope that makes sense.
