First post

I have two belts that say 240XL and one that is longer that says 260XL. They are all in great shape, so I want to use them. Are the 240XLs for the Optima Mid? Would they fit an Optima converted to belt? What is the 260XL for? Thanks

Last post

Yes, that answers my question, thanks! That's what I thought, but I then I thought maybe the long was one for a Lazer. Take care.

I am a fan of the Losi LRM transmission and the upgrades available for it..so this is a cool one. This MIP L-260 kit includes a different top gear and diff gear to change the original LRM ratio from 2.18 to 2.6

Last post

Nice! I put one in my LXT back when I still raced it. And I think I have a backup kit I got years later.

We could just start one I suppose. Shouldn't need a separate forum for it. We could use the off topic/chit chat forum.

Hell yeah! Let's do it,man! :D

I have a Novak 610 RV and a Traxxas XL-1 that I use on my RC10T3 and I've noticed the Novak is faster on the same car with the same fresh batteries (3K) NIMH packs. Both speed are maxed out as far is the throttle setting. Anyone else had similar...

First post

If you had a buggy with two different ESC, one a 35A and the other a 60A, which would provide the best performance given you keep the same batt., tires, gears, motor etc?

Last post

providing the mill pulls less than 35A at full rpm (which would be the case for most motors) they'd be exactly the same top speed all other things being equal.

Now if you're asking about acceleration, which is when more current is really needed,...

First post

I've been buying Bigwig parts tress,screw bags and parts for a while now,so I could build a BigWig out of all new parts.
Well,as we all know,things don't always go as planned and I had an itch to build it.
So,I had at it last night.
Please excuse...

Last post

Even though it's a bit funny on a completely sci-fi-looking car, you gotta love Tamiya's attempt at realism with the molded exhaust pipes, motor and air intake scoop. 8)

I was thinking about this for some time. When I raced - years ago (lets call that era the 90's) - it was mainly about preserving the Tires, Battery to get the 5 min, and a bit of strategy. Now that the cars are more reliable / adjustable, the...
