Senton 2s takes Event 3 Bracket Eliminator title. Both 75% THR elimination passes came in under its 20.6mph dial-in. The first pass the better of the two at 0.21mph under dial-in. Rules package requires one of the two elimination passes must be 75% THR full throttle full length. That was...

TRX/ahr43 106R did its piece of the Street Eliminator final today. Two passes for record. Broke out both passes. Second pass with THR rolled back from 75% to 70% trying to make dial-in still breaking out by 0.24mph. Beginning to figure out the staging and rolling start layout for consistency...

Senton 2s advances out of Round 1 to its first Finals appearance run-off against the Rustler 106R. Senton put down six runs with a delta between them of 0.36mph and a 33ft best of 21.02mph. Dial-in for the Final is 20.81mph based off the six-run average. Any faster than that in the Final and...

Sunday last ran the MT10X for its round of the latest 33ft drag series. Six passes to establish a mph 'dial-in' should it progress to the finals. 27.11mph fastest pass. 22.26mph slowest pass (misjudged the finish line and lifted early). Dial-in speed average 25.38mph for future rounds...

I hear ya. Seasons are flipped down here in Houston. Hunker down inside Jun-Sep. Test and run Oct - May. Have a steel gear diff and HD drive shafts on order for the Rusty. Along with a steel gear idler in the basher stash. Overkill maybe. But better to have them in and not need 'em...

Kicked off November with the 1st drag race in the second of the 33ft series yesterday. Bye run for the TRX Rustler advances it out of round 1 on the 3 car ladder into the finals. Put down a series of six GNSS Speed Meter runs. Averaged the six runs to establish a dial-in speed for the finals...

Thanks. The image is taken from the shut-down area looking north back toward an expansion seam serving as the start line. Had to have the sun at my back to get a picture. The curb/parking lane serves as return road and coned 2ft staging area prior to making a U-turn for the traffic lane...

Ran off the MT10X in 66ft semi-finals last Saturday. Had to relocate the run site. Cones mark the distance on the curb lane so as not impede any traffic on the road. Actual run surface is the lane nearest the center stripe. MT10X pulled a two run average at 33.02mph GNSS. Off pace for some...

Took the legacy Rustler out for recorded runs on the off-site 66ft scale 1/8mi strip today. No drama. No trauma runs. Speeds low which is what I wanted as busy working out the run sequence. The two 90% THR final runs came within 0.1mph of each other. Great for building data for the dial-in...

Ha. Yeah, buddy on the over brake. Almost collected not one but two curbing on shutdown. Actually surprised at the speed the R43X accelerated to so quickly. May have to migrate the 33ft course to my speed running course until I collect data for break-out speed(s). Am already running the 66ft...

Got a Bracket Eliminator winner today on the 33ft Street Legal Dragway. Running a 3 Car Ladder, Rustler-based R43X comes out on top. My speed runner adapting itself to RC drag racing. 56.5kph converts to 35.1mph in 33ft Final. Re-gearing from the prelim round did the deed besting the MT10X's...

Yeah, it is 9x 19. Thanks. Like any other RC discipline, have to adapt to it and tune to it. Already planning to swap out the tire set on the Senton and drop a tooth on the pinion. Rustler, my speed runner, has a pinion on order to tame the wheelspin and will get a RR spring and shock oil...

Busying myself running off Serie One of my version of Perris, CA's 330ft Street Legal Dragway. My version is 1/16mi 1/10 scale 33ft no-prep concrete out front of the house with 67ft shut-down. Yeah, the RC drag racing bug has bit again-after 12 years. Differs from the accepted RC no-prep in...
