Ten7 TDM on order

Yepp it is true...not sure why but used to run Mx back in the old days for fun..younger brother bought a YZ250...and that one has not worked flawless...plan was to get a oldschool KX500 91-92...but sold that idea to the trash :).... Somehow i got back to the Pitbike thoughts..a friend started the Ten7, and he quit that for a long time ago..so search for him and asked a few Qs..perfect for my son and me :D...got my brother to buy one to...somehow i allways like to fabricate, tune and so on...spec with the rc cars that i have been doing since -82..and not forgot the Ford F-100 -56 that fixed up :).. So, first out is the Ten7 140cc,some magn plug, load of airfilters, new Handlebars and graphix..later i hope to get the Kitaco inner kit, highflow ex/muff

Stockholms cup 1/8 el

Last outdoor race for me with the 1/8 buggy. Was fun. I did more then ok, and with a strong field, i could only hope to Q to A-main...said and done, of 21 starting, i Q to A-main as number 9.. The car is awesome, and christer @ reservdelsrc.com is superb with all support and help. first final i ended up in a big start-crash and think i crossed the finish as number 7-9.. 2nd leg, i got away good, and stayed away from the crash, and picked up some real good speed...3rd place and the car was good...the huge 5step jump was easy as allways..but at the landing there was a car on roof...result..bent front main shaft, and a few sec later, the car was dead..motor cable was off... Same in the 3rd and last A-main...but this time the motor was moved, so no powa... overall, i am MORE then happy, i have always newed what i had in me, and i CAN be up there with the big guys.. Stay tune for more fun... something huge will enter this apartment soooon :D

First ever test outdoor Associated SC10 4x4

Maybe this sounds odd, i just got the Associated B44.1 4wd 1/10 buggy to get back to racing, and now posting about the SC version...
Well the main reason why i do not run my B44.1 yet is, i have a race with the 1/8 buggy at the end of the month, and i plan to double that race with SC.
Nuff said, the car have not rolled one M outdoor, and i do hate scratches :D....the car rolled indoor with slicks, yellow sways and springs meaning hard. Mounted the rear shocks on armes at the inner hole , more outtravel and roll.
I did 4 packs and the Proline Bow-Fighters worked well, i will see if i can get my hands on Snipers or Holeshots. I think the car swallow the bumps real good, lot of steering and good rear grip! The Hobbywing SC Pro system with the 4-pole 4700 motor working flawless, thanks to Christer @ www.reservdelsrc.com
