Rcnt Southern Get-together IN APRIL

[Team 17]

It looks like we are bashing at RPM speedway. Boggy creek never called me back. I'm leaving at 3:00am to Florida, I should arrive Friday. When I arrive I'll call everyone to settle a Time to meet. See ya then.

Have a safe trip. Take vids and pics! Man, wish I could go.

 

[Team 17]

Trust me I'm taking plenty. I'll have to send it to one of the members for editing and to put it on a CD. The pics I'll post in the gallery.

I have no want to go to Fl. I've been there 1 to many times and don't care much for it. Them No-see-ems will kill you and bugs that occasionally carry away small children...... Nuff said. Not my idea of fun. I have to stay there once or twice a year hanging out for a connecting flight to Costa Rica. Thats enough for me.

I'm 99% on Buffalo, just seeing if I'm going the week before or the staying the week after.

I look forward to the pics and reports.
Be safe.

Definately a no for Sky, Error and I. Maybe next time.

 

[Team 17]

We all met today for the mini-bash. NcNitro, Gatormaxx, Highlife, Maxx Trooper and I had a good time after we got the trucks running. I have plenty of pics and vids. Once I get back to Jersey I will post the pics in the gallery which will be in a week. I would like to thank NcNitro for helping get my T-maxx to run and everyone who attended.

WHERE IS NITROMANIAC!!!

 

[FastEddy]

Well?
Post all the photos and vids.

 

[NCNitro]

No problem at all Team 17, I had a great time! Very good bunch of guys, I am looking forward to seeing the pics and vids myself.

Any carnage NC ??? You had to break something... lol

 

[NCNitro]

Believe it or not, I broke nothing! The track was no Boggy Creek, it was kind of weak for an off road track. The dirt oval was really cool though, three maxxes and a savage, running simultaneously turned that oval into a huge dustbowl real quick, lol.

The crappy throttle linkage on the SS gave me a hard time when I first got there but luckily the hobby shop was very well stocked and I was able to get what I needed and get running. The MP servo saver mod is awesome, and the four spider diffs are a huge improvement from the last bash, next up throttle linkage mod.

They had a nice paved oval as well, but I had not used my RS4 for quite a while and when I started it the recoil decided not to, so I did not get to run the on road car unfortunately. I guess its time to drop that OS in the RS4.

The only one that sort of broke anything was gatormaxx. One of the screws popped off the shock tower. Everyone else survived with no problems. I was very surprised myself!

Maxxtrooper did bust a servo.

I was wondering why he wasn't running. Did u go to Superior hobbies?

 

[NCNitro]

Yeah, I did, they had the new HPI Jeep Rubicon body, so I HAD to get that, some paint, and a few other misc things. I also picked up a stampede body for my sons truck. I picked up some slixx nascar decals too at the hobby shop at the track, since slixx is going out of buisness, so I wanted to get a few while I still can.

 

[Maxx Trooper]

I'm back from florida. where are all the pic and vids and stuff? i got a few sucky pic with a disposable camera. i did bust my throttle servo but about 15 min later i was good to go. the track wasn't big enough to bust ne thing.

my poor t-maxx is in the mail right now.. NC Nitro jinxed me.. i go to the airport with my t-maxx in a box and they tell me i can't take it on the plane and i have to leave it there.. I'm like yea ok. i brought the thing down on the plane with the same comercial plane service.i even called before we left to make sure i could take it on the plane and they said yes... so 1 hour before I'm suppose to get on the plane,they tell me i can't take my t-maxx and i have to leave it, I'm like forget that. so the guy books us for a flight the next day. so i ended up staying another day in florida and sending my t-maxx out with the post office. so here i am.. in sucky NY weather and no t-maxx...

later

 

[NCNitro]

Oh man that sucks! Sorry I jinxed ya MT. I was just suprised they let you on with it in the first place with the engine still in it. McVickj, had a similar problem when he came down for the winter bash.
