Not to set on toes here, But Glenn has decided to do racing on Sunday. I would like to see you guys come out from time to time. The crowd is a little faster at Rosewood but don't let that scare you off, this is a big help to get anyone going slow up to speed. I am willing to help anyone get up to running speed......and I know other would as well.....this would include setting up ones car and radio gearing and Tires, you would have to be early at the track. This is not normal in a competitive sport.....but I like a good race.
I have enjoyed racing with you guys and seeing a lot of growth in TC. My main focus was about having fun......Winning was not my goal, my reflection are on my time sheets.....
Ofcourse carpet is laid down...but if the weather is nice we will race outside.....zoom zoom.
For those that are interested in dates and time please, PM Jmac or myself.....that we could make arrangments for a crowd or surface area.
Once again we are trying to get unclaimed Pro's, team racers and sponsor racers to come out....You can learn alot from these guys,I have.
Thanks guys, for helping build a bigger Race Community.

John,
I offered Chris a dollar to use spell check but he wouldn't take it. He also refused to spell my name correctly (Manuel) so he just changed it to Manny, so a little E before A I think you can live with.
fine no more post then hows that

Andone know where I could get the HUDY grease without having to pay to ship it too? Or something similar? Apparently my car doesnt accelerate until its tracking dead straight because of some wonderful axle vibrations.
EDIT: Either that or a combination of the half-glued front tire I ran the whole day...

There's some extensive damage to my motor, so dont expect me to go anywhere Sunday either.
what wrong with your motor John? and Forcast is cloudy hi of 57 with rain maybe around 3 PM so do you all want to try and race? LMK
SerpentKing101
02-23-2008, 08:41 PM
stripped threads. Only one screw is barely holding the can together. Probably happened when I got beat on in the A-Main (again)
I'm going to need that motor back.

02-23-2008, 08:48 PM
Can someone post the address to the track? Gonna try and make it next week but need to know where I am going..LOL
Also Does some one have a generator where we can get power from? I got a drop cord but can't fit a Generator in the Stang..:(
JimmyMac
02-23-2008, 10:13 PM
Anthony, there is a McDonalds directly across the street from there. The racing is in the parking lot in the small shopping center. McDonalds address is:
5009 Sante Fe Drive
Fayetteville, NC 28303
Bring your own power. I think they do have a generator to run the computer. But not sure how many people it will handle. You are too spoiled! Put some damn deans plugs or euro plugs! haha.
I will be out there tomorrow as long as the weather holds up. However, I'm not sure about next weekend. I may have to work that Sunday or that Saturday. Not sure which. If I have to work Sunday, I'll be racing in Virginia again. If I work Saturday, I'll be in Fayetteville.
Catch yall soon!
I was looking for the address it is in one of the first post some where I know that Jimmy knows it and sepentking knows it
comming off of 95 it is easy to get to
take bis 95 exit it turns into 301
stay on 301 till you get to Owen Drive trafic light Turn Right
Owen Drives turns into All American Freeway
take the Sante Fe exit left off that exit
on Sante Fe cross Yadkin Road then turn into the parking lot on the right
across the street from McDonalds
yes we have power out there on a some what limited basis we just ran the entire off-road track off of one that we use on the parking lot

Charger? You have a car battery in your real car right?? haha What, you have an AC only charger? lol
Yes and that is not to be used so I can make the return trip 3 hrs home..LOL
To be able to charge these, "SPECIAL" packs I am not sure my 1:1 car battery is up to that...wink
But it all sounds good. If they have a generator I got a 100 foot cord..
JimmyMac
02-23-2008, 11:00 PM
Well then you don't need a charger. Just plug them directly to your car battery until they are hot..... :D
Thanks to all that came out Yesterday I will post up results tomarrow

Well I just switched shifts at work. Went to 3rd shift. So now I can race this Sunday. :D
Anthony, you gonna be racing on Jaco Blues? If so, I will too.
Catch yall there. Oh yeah, had fun the other day. It was a real slick out there with the cold asphalt. It was all about throttle control. Layout was pretty nice and fun as well. They seem to be getting better each week. Can't wait to see whats in store for this weekend.

Guys I am selling some power: EP4600 TeameXpress 1.23avg 35amp .90 cutoff the normally charge up to 5200mah on the Frontline(but that is not your avgerage charger either)....
I had these pack for about 2months...and they have been race only at Fayetteville with you guy. So about 8-10 Cycles
I have two for sale...$35 bucks a pack.
I am changing packs because My Ray chassis has a spacing clause. So I am going with smaller cells.
Hint Hint.......if you need to go alittle faster.
Tires would be the other Hint Hint......Jaco Greens/Low traction condition/cool temp.
You would need a strong combination between the two. Tires and Cells.......Lipos are good for practice but!

Send pics too. I'll try to keep it updated after every week's racing, including results, pics, links to vids of the race, etc... I'm also trying to give the site more "eye candy", including new backgrounds, updated pics, maybe an rss feed of this thread if I can get it to work, etc...

John Tag
03-08-2008, 10:33 AM
I'll be watching the weather.. I just got over a killer cold..well just about over meds heavy today.
48 pitch 72 tooth w around 33 pininon
JimmyMac
03-08-2008, 11:47 AM
So he would need a 96 spur if it was 64*.... got it. I would suggest to him then a 96/42 to gear where I am..... Thanks Chris...
tbsr2139
03-08-2008, 04:07 PM
Jimmy the gear Chris give you is what I am currently running with lipo's, never tried 64 pitch on it.
John Tag
03-08-2008, 04:18 PM
Justin you coming tommorow.. Bring my $..LOL B ready for your wooping KID!
JimmyMac
03-08-2008, 05:27 PM
Hey Tag, you got any more 4000 packs? If so, bring another for me tomorrow. I'm gonna sell my blue lipos so I don't have to keep switching out weight in my car back and forth.
For the spur, my friend wants to run 64pitch. So using the formula to convert 48pitch size to 64pitch size, a 72 48pitch spur is the same size as a 96 64pitch spur. (72 tooth 48 pitch) 72 ÷ 1.5 = 48 x 2 = 96.
Catch yall tamarra.

I think the trees have it out for my real car. Last year the tornado in Goldsboro took out my rear window on my Mazda. Today with the strong winds, our small crab apple tree out front fell right behind my car! Luckily it didn't touch it at all. Maybe they just don't want me parking in that spot or something. I dunno. If I had parked a foot further back, I'd have scratches all over the rear end of my car. Went to wash some dishes. Looked in the back yard and our apple/pear tree whatever had just up rooted. 2 trees in one day. You guys get any strong winds today out that way?
Well let me head on out and change a few things on my car. Catch yall in the morning.
SerpentKing101
03-08-2008, 07:50 PM
On the way back home from getting sandblasted in the face at Crossroads, I seen a truck with the windshield smashed in and a fallen tree behind it. Id say we got some rough stuff, too.

JimmyMac
03-09-2008, 09:07 PM
I'll post them up again just in case anyone else want's to get some.
Here is the link for the TC5 stainless steel plate that adds weight under the lipo. It also fits other cars. If you want to see if it fits your car, come see me. I know Manny has one as well. http://www.ppdbillet.com/RC_accessories.html
Here is the link for the TC5 lipo tray that holds the lipo in place so that you don't have to worry about it falling out...
http://www.diggitydesigns.com/TC5_UpgradeParts_DD.html
Both can work together to not only add weight, but hold the battery in place!
Well great racing today. You missed it Tag! I was gonna call ya on BOKing out. But I guess I'll excuse you on the cold. I know a few others were affected too. Anyways, had fun as usual. Good to see you again Steve B. Hope I can make it out next weekend. Not sure yet due to the "new" work schedule once again. But we'll see. Catch yall next time.
Mitch, I'll bring those HPI limited edition purple aluminum steering knuckles for your car. I have them right here. And I put them in my pit box so I would not forget.
Chris J.... sorry for blowing gas all over the front of you VW.... I know, my car runs rich. Plus I only have 1 cat... :D
hey guys great racing today to bad my car had a mind of its own today oh well I guess there is always next week but it makes me want to really build the new car for next week

Whiskey 1
03-10-2008, 11:49 PM
Hey Tommy, WWW.NEXUSRACING.COM carries them, (part # 309830 - XRAY Precision Balancing Chassis Weights) but they are out of stock. Google this part #. Thanks for the help this weekend. I'll be ready for next Sunday.
SerpentKing101
03-11-2008, 12:51 AM
Wished you needed weights when I had my XRAY. I had a pair of them I would never have used...
JimmyMac
03-11-2008, 02:49 AM
I don't use those weights right now. I use this under my Lipo. http://www.teamfusionracing.blogspot.com/
Basically, I use the stainless steel plate that fits in the battery slots. Then on top of that I use the lead weight I posted above. Then the battery sits on top of that. So now the car is balanced left to right without adding the round XRay weights. (No, I'm not selling them, they are still very useful! I have 4 sets :D). Just use carpet tape to stick the lead plate to the stainless steel plate. Carpet tape is as thin as paper and sticks pretty good. You can find it in the hardware section of Target or Walmart. With this setup (if you've seen my car Sunday) your car has a cleaner appearance without all the weight on top of the battery, or sticking to the side of the battery. It's all hidden under the lipo pack. Plus the weight is down low for a lower center of gravity. Even lower than using 6cell packs. ;) If you want the XRay weights, you can also try StormerHobbies or AmpDraw.

The one I have and have been posting is the one I linked to on post #2592 He is the one that makes them. He is on RCTech known as Verndog. He has pics of my car with his plate on his website. I posted 3 links. One for the stainless steel plate. One for the TC5 battery brace. And one for the lead weights. If you have found another stainless plate design... go ahead and post the link for others to check out.
OK guys bad news
the winters end race will be trophies that will be given out at a later time becouse the trophy shop cant finnish them in time so I will have them put names on them then hows that

I know I can make the 16th but not the 30th, as Jimmy said there is a race in Md. we goto every year.
Chris just have the race and give the trophies out at a later time....Or add a couple more dollars to the entry and then mail out the ones for guys that may not come back that often.
That would be fine with me entry will be the same and if you want your trophy to be mailed then psy after the races hows that?
well hope to see everyone on Sunday

Yeah, the pack is charged and ready to go. I can't wait to test it out. I had to go to Hayes today to get a few deans plugs, now everythings wired. I love this charger, I'm going to cycle my packs through it to see if I can bring my number back up.
Ok hours away I am loading up getting ready to go see everyone soon
