  1. You have anywere in mind be good to get out with a gang of us
  2. found some interesting reading while browsing looking for other rc forums about plans to build an outdoor bash track at dynamix skate park gateshead did anything ever happen with that? if you look on google earth it looks like the outline for a track has been layed out.
  3. I'm hoping it will pick up as I was just getting to know a few people before it died
  4. Missed the midweek at whickham so I'm out tomorrow anyone out
  5. Might just play out on Friday if the boss let's me
  6. Yeah I'll second whickham but the bmx track at Durham is v good too and the skate bowl next to it
  7. What Chinese sites do you guys use
  8. When you thinking like dalex might have a couple free hours on Wed for Northumbria or whickham
  9. Durham has a massive field and a skate bowl track isn't as well maintained though still a great location
  10. Can't make Sunday so I'm gonna play out tomorrow
  11. called over today for a couple of hours at the wasteland then onto the massive fields great fun on the waste land with the sand shaped into jumps works well for both my 1/10 firestorm and my 1/8 buggy be good for a group bash
  12. Took a drive out to Northumbria centre today had a couple hours fun on the waste land then onto the massive fields works well for both my 1/10 firestorm and my 1/8 buggy looks like a good place for a group blast
  13. Forgot to say building a 1/8 buggy style so needs to be suitable
  14. Anyone got a centre diff Inc mounts and brakes etc going cheap, building a bitsa basher from spares and need a centre diff unit
  15. well I wasn't out for long 1st firestorm kept cutting out 2nd firestorm snapped clutch spring and my new 1/8 thing (don't know what to call it) Baja buggy kinda thing went well till I ripped the front tyres off the wheels. beefy thanks for the heads up on the steering, tightened up the servo saver and found a new bush and its tightened the whole thing up, think i'll still keep a look out for a higher torque servo for it if I can find a cheap one.
  16. try warming the engine with a hairdryer fro a couple mins
  17. Seems my idea isn't viable on an rc nitro setup no harm in asking, as im new to the nitro engine and still have a lot to learn. On a 1:1 note it is possible to run this setup it has been done many times before . No elaborate gearing etc basically engine g/box and front subframe welded into back. this is were I got the idea from. I fabricated and built the rollcage for a mk1 golf about 15yrs ago that had this setup in
  18. reason behind the smaller engine running the front axle was along the lines of more power to the rear wheels, if that's not going to work then I can easily use the same engines. are we saying that the split power delivery idea wont work either
  19. Last post ??? Any how no not firestorms I've just got a bunch of 4wd front and rear ends and was planning on making a chassis from scratch my main concern is i plan on running the two engines completely separate from each other on opposite axles and wasn't sure on front and rear diff gear ratios and if there would be any problems
  20. thinking of running twin nitro engines .18 rear and .15 front each running the diff at each end is there a gear ratio difference between front and rear diffs that could cause speed problems is fronts running faster than rears
  21. How much for the engine and exhaust posted
