    What I've learnt..

    I've had my RC for a little more than month - and today I can officially say that I have it 100% where I want it. I've learnt that they're touchy, insane, fast and not something you can just let sit on a table/workbench and not have the urge to start it up and smoke out my family. For the last...

    Problem with Glow Plug..

    I've gone through two glow plugs in the last week.. I was wondering why this might be happening and what I can do to prevent this? Is my car too rich or too lean? And what kind of glow plug would be best for my Savage SS with a 4.6? My main concern is that I'm ruining my engine.. Running it...

    Lean Idle Problem

    My car fell in while I was beside it so I got it out really fast, but it killed the engine the second it went in (upside down with only the tips of the tires exposed) I grabbed the truck and let the water drip out, removed the air filter, removed the glow plug and dumped raw fuel into the head...

    Lean Idle Problem

    I went back to factory settings and then followed up on the link 88gtanotchback posted for me and its running great again! At least it was lol.. Me and two other friends decided to go bashing and we ALL submerged our RC's in the same damn swamp.. Repairs only cost me $50 thankfully (needed a new...

    Lean Idle Problem

    I've been having an issue recently where my truck sounds really REALLY lean when its idling. If I go full throttle and then stop the truck it almost bogs out and then rev's up really high, and the its almost engaging the clutch. I don't really want to mess with the settings because my savage...

    Homemade Track part 1

    haha no mattress, its a piece of wood- we're going to cover it all with dirt and you wont be able to see any of that, just the outlines. And Ottawa is like 4 hours from Toronto, so it would be quite the trip

    Homemade Track part 1

    All that my friend Bryan did on his own! He's pretty good with stuff like this, I get to do all the backbreaking work with the dirt :P I'll be sure to get some video's. My friend Chris has a nice video camera, I'm sure we can set something nice up

    Homemade Track part 1

    A little bit of motivation go a long way when you have a handful of people who love their RC's as much as we do. This week a full load of dirt is being unloaded by a damn dumptruck so we'll be able to finish it off. At first I didn't think it would turn out half as nice as what it is now - but...

    Savage Diff Oil

    I was at my local HS today and asked about that because I was curious, I was told to just make sure that crud like dirt and dust does not accumulate in there but regular oiling was not needed. They do sell oils at the HS for it though, so I guess its a personal choice. I myself intend on doing...

    My first RC

    I'm was working on a custom 160g for my new reef setup but that went down the drain when I flipped my RC into it shattering the front panel.. And now that I'm really into this new hobby I wont be able to afford the live rock to put in a tank that size. Figure at about $6.99 a pound for live...
