Absolutely no wind todayView attachment 244026
Believe it or not, because I don't, but I woke up at 5:30 AM. It was worth it for sure though now just hoping I can get home before the rain

I went once again that evening, with my dad who took the pic. He actually manages to follow the plane with his phone camera pretty good, perhaps I can get some drone shots one day...

Ran the heck out of my Gorgon truck. One pack down, one to go. Takes a beating. Ran smack into a tree stump at WOT & it bounced back & kept going. This thing will wheelie for days. The new Quake has competition.

It was a land RC kinda day as the wind was s**t for flying.

How you like the brushless 2wd Vorteks?

Had the modded FMC Power Wagon out on the big rock heap, no pics but lots of tumbles down the hill. Getting a lot farther on the different sections of this more complicated pile, but have a ways to go in many of the difficult sections. She is started to show some trail patina.

How you like the brushless 2wd Vorteks?

I like it a lot. I have both the 2WD and 4WD Vorteks, totally different vehicles...both awesome in their own ways. Plus, the black and yellow scheme had me at hello

Same here. I like my Gorgon, nearly the same spine chassis. It's so light, I have yet to break it. 2wd is a lotta fun.

The wife and I got to do a little crawling. She likes her new tires.

Ran the slash n rusty last night and took video with my headstrap for my phone, uploading videos now and I'll see how the angle is.

Today me and my Dad went to our local track 405 RC Raceway in OKC we raced a bit and looked at what they had. We also broke both of our buggies my Dad broke a camber link on his Yokomo YZ-2 CAL3 and i bent the front center driveshaft on my B74.1. Here's some pics.

My Dad did buy me replacement shafts for my B74.1 hope to get them installed someday before our next track visit.

How in the world did you do that?

How in the world did you do that?

I had a really bad crash into a ramp or wall at speed i think at least it wasn't the radios fault like it was last time. Overall me and my Dad had fun time at the track i saw lots of things i wanted but didn't buy a thing. My Dad bought the replacement center driveshafts for my buggy.

Practice makes perfect. Slow is fast. Consistency is key

You're right it had been a few months since i've been at the track and i was trying to practice for a couple laps i did pretty good although. I also figured out how to slow down my buggy's servo with my DX6C i had fun. I saw a few things i would have wanted at the shop i saw a Futaba 10PX but you all know i still want the new model iXSR when it comes out in November and i saw they had the 2wd slash bl-2s kit for $230 usd also saw a Slash 4x4 Ultimate clipless body and the 4x4 clipless body conversion kit and the Proline Trencher tires for the X-Maxx\XRT.

I'm grooving on the new Tekno. The only mechanical failure I've suffered so far is a lower shock mounting screw falling out. The truck is a winner.

Did you have the shock mounting screws in the correct orientation?

 

[islandlife]

Moving some earth to rebuild track, great excuse to get the lmt out for some freestyle fun in the dirt!

Did you have the shock mounting screws in the correct orientation?

That's the first thing I thought too. I checked the manual, the screw is on the correct side.

MAXX Slash , a few friends came by, one was running a UDR the other had an e-revo.
Track was still a little bit wet and muddy since it’s been raining off and on for the past several days.
Got to test out the fender liners I had installed on the MAXX slash this morning.

The fender liners worked at least so far no rocks in the in my steering linkage.

Got a mess to contend with tomorrow.

Glad to hear the inner fenders worked out!
