Found my Camber Gauge :-)
USPS made me happy today! My new radio was in the mail box!
Got a Spektrum DX2S in "Mint" condition from ebay. VERY SWEET!!!
Last summer I raced with my brothers DX3S and wanted one ever since.
There are some miner differences between the two radios BUT they aren't noticeable or needed by me!!

Qualified 3rd finished 5th got tied up in a turn on lap two, got behind by 20 seconds, just missed getting another lap by 6.5 seconds.
I was 20 seconds behind 4th and 28 seconds in front of 6th, it was like I was out there by myself!!!!
Still NOT a bad day for the first race with a SC10 chassis AND the Speed Passion GT 1.1 ESC. Had to turn the throttle (on the radio) down to 100 from 125, the SP ESC spec's are greater than the old ESC, will need some time to learn to manage the POWER!!!!

The SC10 chassis was in my mail box today! :-)
Put the "new" Speed Passion GT 1.1 in with the Tekin 10.5 motor in the "New" SC10!!
The GT 1.1 has more ZOOM than the GT 1.1 LPF. Same slipper setting, this didn't change as I put the "SC10 Cone" parts onto the SC10 chassis, during a test, the front wouldn't stay down :-)
Zoom Zoom!!!

Racing at Farmers 2/21/10 SWEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Valentines Day
John 3:16-17 NET
16 For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
===

As I'm waiting for a track that is racing on Fri night OR Sat!!!
Put together a Traxxas Rustler Short Course truck. Put a 1 and 1/4 inch long extender between the chassis and transmission. Had some Traxxas Slash wheels on the shelf from a 1/8 buggy conversion of a Slash. Drives very well!
Had raced this in December of 2009 with 1/10 truck wheels and did very well!
Was doing some "yard" testing and ripped the teeth off the idler gear in the transmission, guess I need to set the slipper clutch better!!!
===
Got two Brushless ESC today one off ebay a Super Sport Plus by Novak and one off R/C Tech buy and sale, a Speed Passion – GT ESC Version 1.1 << I have had one of these for 14 months, there SWEEEET!
===
Got the router working so my sweetie (wife) and I can be on the Internet at the same time, had been plugging in what ever computer that was needed into the dsl modem.

A bit of an update about T4SC.
Farmers is not racing as they get moved into their NEW hobby shop and build a track.
Last race on the "OLD" track got rained out, seems that has happened ALOT the past 12 months!!
I did get to put some laps in on a "SHORTened" track around the water holes. This was enough for me to get REAL SC parts LIKE!!!
Got a silver/blue body from the "Hitman" SWEEEET!!!!
Put a set of Pro-Line Bow Ties with AE rims on the front.
Trying to get some Pro-Line Calibers and AE rims for the rear, for a option to best fit the track conditions!
Also, looking to get a REAL SC10 chassis to replace the MOD T4 chassis I'm using!
Decided to stay with a Speed Passion speed control and a Tekin 10.5 Redline motor for 2010.
Put the Factory Team shocks from the T4 on, they are still setup for a "Lipo Lite", worked ok on the "SHORTened" track!!
