    *Wanted*

    Admin please correct me if I am in the wrong place I need a starter box for 1/8th buggy. Set of mini pins on wheels. Set of spirals on wheels. Pit buddy unless starter comes with one. I can meet at NDOR next weekend. Would appriciate the tyres to be in near or new condition. Ta guys
  4. The one that kept chasing me down and lapping me cause I can't keep it on its wheels? I must admit though, electric needs to be my next move, I could not believe how easy your car puts the power down but that might just be that I need to tweak the engine and get it dialled in abit better
  5. Yeah was very good. I can tell the difference between the hyper 7 and the kyosho I might need your help setting the geometry and suspension up though. As I expected the shock towers are like chocolate, Bent the front right side on the first lap haha! The tyres are okay although Neil has advised me that they are too grippy on the edges as it is grip rolling. Going to try and remove the outer and inner pins from the front tyres and see how I get on. Other than them little points though I am very happy with the car and its overall driveability, hey I even managed to get over the 3 doubles more than once
  6. neil.b was that you today with the electric that was talking about tyres and stuff for the mp9?
  7. I have indeed gone for the kyosho (y) very happy with the car setup, looks nice and not too heavy. 2 things I have already decided on though is that the shock towers are deffinatley far too thin and i will probably bend them tomorrow and the handset seems rather flimsy (n) will give a full update after abit of playing/breaking in tomorrow. any have an idea weather ndor is open tomorow?
  8. going picking it up from model sport in the morning, spending the day learning the model then coming to ndor sunday to break it in and get used to it I will be with a lad that is running my old nanda swift. Hes never been to a track with a car before, he came with me last time but didnt have a car with him.
  9. the question marks are supposed to be smileys
  10. Cheers Lee, I am going picking it up tomorow ???? Getting abit giddy now ???? Will keep you all updated!
  11. Thanks guys, going to be the hyper or mp9. Any pros or cons over each other? i could do with one that is going to last me a couple of years i can't really justify buying one now then needing a new one in a year ????
  12. Hi guys, Just after some advice on what to get. Kyosho Inferno MP9 TK13, HPI trophy 3.5 or the Hyper 9 b-version? Other than the obvious difference in price can anyone point me in the right direction? I am looking to spend no more the
  13. a charger to charge my life and nimh packs for the car i smashed up
  14. to be fair i got the car 2 years ago and its been ill treated, i have recently started to realise that they are made for tracks not the park i have a screw set that im using to slowly replace them all im getting a roller off dubberz on saturday morning
  15. am i likely to have killed anything with these bent shafts? :/
  16. tbh could do with a whole roller as a good spare parts base, ive smashed the front left side, could do with better shockers, center front shaft is bent so not sure if i have done any other damage, not even dared look just put it in my car until i calm down cause i made a silly noobish mistake. tured everything on, opened throttle, primed engine, put shell on, forgot to switch car on, yanked the pull start and suprise suprise my car hit three walls at full song In all honesty i am extreme suprised that all i snaped was a shock and the front lower arm front brace oh and the glow start that was attached but managed to rescue the bits for that and rebuild it
  17. smashed the front of my hyper up, anyone got a roller?
  18. had a runaway now got a poorly hyper 7, anyone got a roller?
  19. ill get some pictures later, i cant cut the plate as the engine sits too far over on the plate and goes over the mounting hole for the plate to chassis
  20. the engine has seen around a gallon now and the carb was new as i hadnt used it and the lsn seized. will see how i get on this weekend with some foil on the head
  21. Right so first of all I had my first weekend at a track (NODR) this weekend just gone and would like to thank everyone that helped me out especially Lee (Dubberz) for telling me to come down and sorting me a rx battery out ???? and Tim (Owner) for getting me setup and running as I had a new carb on and had the wrong shell ???? Tim got me tuned up and going on saturday and the car was running better than ever but thought it was running abit cool. When I came to use the car on sunday it was hit and miss at bottom end and and tim had to go through tuning again as I couldn't get it to have any of it. It was running well aslong as I didnt leave it idling too long, only thing I noticed is it was still running cold (could easily hold my hand on the head) even after many laps giving it what I could. I cannot get it to tune well and have it as hot as it should be as when I lean it out it struggles to run. Has any one got any ideas around getting this problem sorted before I pack the car away and go spending
