thats a $80 carb right there, but IMO, all worth it. (easier tuning, more durable then the stock carb)

my next mod will be a new body and the traxxas blue performance pipe, and probably a M.S. Air Filter.

word thats the worst thing about those fuckin things they are a pain in the ass!

before you try and start it you might want to try and prime it. the hose that connects to the exaust blow in it and you will see that it forces some fuel into the carb. like i said they are a pain in the ass! also use after run oil when you are done playing with it it will save a lot of stress on the moter ;)


bring it into a hobby store they will get her goin for you playah

good luck, and my tmaxx starts with 1 tap of the ez start :taped:

[Wheelie Boy]

shit no way your gonna get a monster truck to jump a house. I have a video of a buggy doing it tho.

someone could try to jump a house with a nitro monster truck, but it would probably total it :X

[MikeM]

i want video of one jumping a house. If anyone here has a powerful enough one to do it let me know, Ill film it and pay for the damage

Its in the works. But I got one better than a house. My fmx ramp is currently set up to jump my pool. I'm gonna pour a gallon of nitro on the pool, light it up, and jump it with my little truck AND my dirt bike at the same time.

[Beatzz]

amazing :wackit:

[Bray]

u spent 6 bucks on scissors?

[Wheelie Boy]

concidering hobby shops charge $8-$12 for the same ones, yes I did. and I payed less then the prices that are in those pictures

and regular scissors dont cut good (i would know, I ruined my first body trying)

[wheeliekid]

nice make sure you lightly sand the inside of the car before you paint. it helps the paint stick better. Very high grit sand paper

damn thats fast for little micro looking thingy.

[Wheelie Boy]

you wont strip gears if you have the shit hooked up right

[wheeliekid]

Trust me Ive done it before. 9t double did in 3 spurs gears for me. Perfect mesh but they still got stripped

[Wheelie Boy]

FUCKINA I JUST PUT THE FIRST COAT ON MY BODY AND ITS ALREADY FUCKED UP

[wheeliekid]

wait until it dry and then try some Nitro Gas to get it off

[MULISHA-MIKE]

please tellme you didnt sand the inside of the body first.....

I used to be into R/C cars pretty heavy and when I would paint one I would just wash it with warm water and just a drop of soap.Then use the air compressor to dry it off real good.
I am no expert at painting but I did the best with several light coats.
Hope this helps you out some...
Good luck

[Wheelie Boy]

i just washed mine and dident sand it, and im doing light coats

It helps the paint stick better. I did it to my car (in the other thread) and it came out just fine.

[MULISHA-MIKE]

I have also been told to heat the body some with a hair dryer prior to painting
Did the paint start to run on you?

[Wheelie Boy]

yeah only on the first coat, every coat afterthat came out perfect. Its my first body ever so i think there is a little expectation for me to mess up a few times

[Wheelie Boy]

painted my first body today, came out like shit. at leats i wont feel as bad when i trash it in like a week

[Bray]

looks :pimp:

[Judge]

a week? lmao.....I would get about an hour before I tashed the body.....

[wheeliekid]

its not that bad. My first body came out alot worse than that.

[Wheelie Boy]

a week? lmao.....I would get about an hour before I tashed the body.....
thats probably a more accurate estimate

[thewibb]

I've got an Associated Monster GT. I bought a shitload of aluminum parts tho as these things will nickel and dime you to death if you play hard.

[Wheelie Boy]

I would rather have all RPM parts cause they flex so much they almost never break, and if you do manage to break them, you get new ones for free.

if u bend aluminum ur fucked

[Wheelie Boy]

WOOOHOOOOOO!

[wheeliekid]

Nice. Get some outdoor photos

[Judge]

Cut the rest of the windshield out...it helps cool the engine...and when you start leaning it out to get more power you will need all the cold air you can get. Get a temp gauge for it (RPM sells one..nice piece)....that way once you get it dialed in where you want it...take not of the head temp. The next time you run it if the weather has changed alot or whatever you have a good idea where it needs to be to run properly. I have an OS 12 motor that is running an Odonnell(sp) high comp head, the crank is knife-edged and polished, the sleeve is opened up on both exhaust and intake sides (to change timing a bit) the rod is also knife-edged and polished. I run Odonnell 20% nitro in it....

cutting out the entire windsheild makes the top of the body cave in, and I dont want that. Also, leaning it out is a bad idea because it deprives the engine of the oil it needs to keep from gettin messed up

the body may become weak...but the idea is to keep it off the roof. Second....that is why I run Odonnel fuel....it has the proper amt of oil so that you can run it on the lean side for max power and still get good life out of the engine...trust me. I did not do all that stuff to mine just to whipe it out running too lean.....
