RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

I've used Integy and had issues charging anything over 3000 cells. It was an older charger but I was told by their customer support that it should have done up to the 4200 that I had. It did not- it still sits in the box. I've used the Duratrax Intellipeak twin and it charged fine until a power surg...

I think he wants pictures of your camera gear....

Wait a minute... scr8p has your camera?? I am having problems reading lately....

Thanks for the pic Jay - and Mr. ED it's a JG Manufacturing "Dart" body, JG roof spoiler, AYK Magnum 360L, Parma bumper, repro aluminum wheels from eggayk (sells on eBay- referred from TC) and CRP battery door (can't see that!).

Was it 2wd or 4wd?? If you're saying grey buggy in the Hornet era then I'm going to guess Sonic Fighter.

Welcome aboard. I was old enough to not appreciate Punky Brewster at the time (I can now that she's all grown up ), but so many people seem to reference that show as a big r/c influence.

I asked about that Sunday. Mark said he would post up that info as soon as he got it. I'm waiting too!

i thought this was going to be a big event. from the pictures, it just looks like it was between some people from this forum. Ummmm... wow. :roll: Is that supposed to be an attempted insult or am I just reading your post wrong? If you hadn't noticed this forum is a diehard bunch of vintage racers, ...

What a great time! I had all sorts of running problems-- it took me right back to the 1200 hump pack days!! :shock: I couldn't finish a race then either... :oops: Jay- thanks for documenting all this. The pics look great.... except for me on the stand. Couldn't you at least have told me to shut my m...

The track's regular hours are 9am-11pm on Saturdays. I'm guessing 9am... but I'll probably be there earlier. Mapquest says 3 hours, but I'm hoping for less than that!

I'll have mine... just got some fluid at the LHS. It has a stock motor in it, but I can dial my PS down low enough that it's not screaming. I got it that way cheap and can't see spending the coin on a 55t that I'd use 3 times a year. ;) I should be there around 9am tomorrow. I'll wear a red rose.......

Take care of yourself first. You can play on Saturday!!

Great shots! I can guarantee the shots of mine will be on their lids!!! :D I'm glad at least one of us will be getting a record of this event. I haven't had time to take any pics.... after a 15 hour day at work I came home at 830pm and I just shut off the soldering iron now. The last of the wiring i...

You must be talking 48pitch? Still running 32p here....
Can't wait to get in a few laps on Saturday. Someone hold a pit spot for me???

Oh- any word on registration? Is pre-registration available? I hope to be there by 10am Saturday-- depends on traffic. Ooooooh boy!

If anyone else is interested, I would order at least 3 "Stinger" bodies for the Hornet/Grasshopper. I think there would be a market for the "Wells Coyote" Hotshot body as well. bgniles- I'm not sure if you're over at TC as well, but there could be some interest in Parma bodies th...
