Paula's driving is progressing nicely. Ran 4 packs today on 100% throttle. Still not running with my Senton but that day will come. Don't want to push her as she is really enjoying the hobby! A few action shots of her tearing it up!

Awesome man, looks like she knows how to rip it up!! Only one pic without wheels on the ground & that's a turtle shot!
. Good to hear that you took off the training wheels & gave her the full tilt!
Too cold, windy & nasty to play outside so I worked on something I've been putting off for way too long- my apartment. Started putting my entertainment system put back together. Got the Bluetooth thingy to play music from my phone, but I haven't been able to get CD's or the surround sound from the TV to work yet. Gonna take some more fiddling tomorrow. There's no in ceiling lighting, my lamp ownership sucks & it's getting too dark but I am gonna watch a movie (w/out surround sound
) for the 1st time in my new place!! Still don't have any furniture but I'm getting there!!!

Oh believe me, she had plenty of up on two tires in the turns.lol. We were both laughing and high fiving each other like a couple of teenagers.lol. She was mashing the trigger today big time. Keep telling her, if it breaks, I can fix it. I see a ramp in our future..this flat large field is getting old.Awesome man, looks like she knows how to rip it up!!

I'm telling ya, a ramp, even a small one (mine's only a foot tall) brings a whole new dimension & level of fun/stupidness to the party! The laughs & cartwheels & oohs/aahs when you nail that 1st backflip make all the new breakages worth EVERY PENNY!Oh believe me, she had plenty of up on two tires in the turns.lol.

I did receive this cheapo tire balancer last night, threw it together today and got to play with it.. seems to work good but I don't think it'll do the kraton tires!!
Really got it for the mega tho so no big deal.. it'll do 17mm on road, so it'll work!!

Yep, if you need a cheap balancer, it free spins really well, haven't threw the felony tires on it yet but going to here in a bit to see if it can handle the weight, I believe it would balance grp's and the like just fine!

Yesterday took 3 rigs out for speed runs. No PB beaten. Too windy to risk running the Infraction so just ran the 124019 and the 3s Typhon.
The 124019 got to 111km/h (118 PB) until I started braking then 2 tyres shot out, got airborne and left the chat. Found one but other is gone. Also lost a wheel bearings, 2 hexs and pins. I'm guessing the braking force loosened the wheel nuts.
Think I'll abandon this build. It seems a lot of effort for little gain. I mean the Typhon got to 116km/h first run and it's not even setup for speed runs.

I clipped this for you so you could get a good judgment.. beat up old unbalanced rear 53/107!! Heck I actually like it better on the 17's.. more room to get in there to balance it over the smaller 2.8
Stripped down the V2… can you spot what’s not correct?

The frontend kickup is now a kick Down and has some screw holes "enlarged"...
Correct. I had to drill through the chassis to get the screw out since the other 3 came out easily but that one was stuck… gotta weld a nut to it to get the rest outThe frontend kickup is now a kick Down and has some screw holes "enlarged"...
