Two months into it, I found all the missing peices and completed the rolling chassis. I bought a new 3.3 for it, and I chose an HPI 67 Stingray body for it. It's ready to go with the exception of needing the tires glued. So, I finally want to see this thing run. Say we get a day that's fair to break it in.. maybe around 50 degrees outside.. It wouldnt hurt to start breaking in the motor... even if it's only 2 tanks, right? I've broken them in around that temp. before with no issues. I dont have to run all 5 at once do I ?
 
Hey since your 4-tec is ready to go, my rs4 is just about ready to go, as soon as i get my body back (as long as ncnitro doesn't keep it) LOL :hehe:
we need to find a place to run these little rockets for a while once the weather breaks out. . .let me know and we can work something out

Yeah, no doubt. I ended up giving it a run yesterday, i can already tell its going to be quick
 
Like i said i am still waiting on my body and i am also waiting for HPI to send me a new carb because the BRAND NEW CARB that came on my BRAND NEW ENGINE was junk and the idle screw ripped the threads out of the carb body, but yeah any wayz probably sometime in the spring once all the snows gone we'll get something figured out.
 
Yeah, I just dont know if there is somewhere in the middle where there is a track or anything. I'm going to scout some parking lots soon though
 
There is a small airport up the road from me, i was going to see if it was ok the run them there... you know, I dont want them to flip about frequency interference
