It sure was for me! I took first place in all three of my classes with those vehicles, Gas Truck Sportsman, 1/8-Buggy Sportsman, and Unlimited Monster Truck. Check the "Chaser" video at slapmafro.com for some action (and me receiving three trophies :) ).

Hello, name is Peter, married for 12 years to a great woman that doesn't mind me playing with toys, and have a 7 year old son. On my sons 5th birthday I bought him a Stampede, on the 6th he got an E Maxx, now he has a Sportmaxx. He's the reason I still own an rc truck, I sold them all and he was mad because he didn't have anyone to bash with...Just bought another used Savage, and working on making a waterproof TXT for muddin.

:newb:
:motorcycle:
 
welcom to the fourm chris hope u enjoy your stay everone is awesome here any questions just ask man
 
By the way Chris, Ill give u some advise and that truck of yours. Have you ever had a nitro truck before? If not the first thing I woould do is go over every nut and screw make sure there tight,and ready for abuse.Next start braking the engine in, Do what the manf. says to do for barke in.. Don't be in a rush take your time at this it will pay off in the long run. Any your engine will think you for it...(OOO yea If it was mine I would put a little after run oil in the carb to start it for the first time . Use it after every RUN.. drop some in the carb or take the glow plug out and drop a few drops in the head) Also I would think real hard about sealing the engine up.. there is other threades here that will explain that very well check them out...This will help you with any airleakes down the road. Also make tunning allot easiesr for you..... Anyway start off slow and don't rush the process.. get a cupple spare glow plugs and some afterrun oil and mabey a spur gear or 2 and u should be set..... Then there hop ups theres where u get hooked they get expensive $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ any questions feel free to ask later buddy
 
h
what you mean by sealing up the engine ??
any idea which plugs i should be usin??
it came with my first hop up free from hpi hardened spur gaer set i think something like that
thanks
chris
 
what Truck did u get the ss x or what

Sealing the engine = makeing sure there is no airleaks even a brand new engine will have a airleak take alook and some of the othere threade there is allot of info on that subject..... take allok at this link http://www.rchobbies.org/cars_eng-tuning.htm read it all there allot od good tips on the tunning and stuff the second page tells about sealing the engine

On the glow plug I know its cold where u live Its is here also so right now Iam running a mcoy mc 59 plug its a hotter plug because its so cold it helps burn the fule better....anyway u might want to think about getting a tempature gauge U can find a hand held unit for like 30 dollars I have the duratrak infer red one it works great When u brake in that engine u need the head of it to stay warm like 220* if u need to put a old sock over the head also when its cold after the brake in becareful on leaning that engine out.... (u will need to a little) because cold air is more dence (more air meens more fule) anymore questions just ask chris later buddy
 
hi
not the ss it is the RTR model it was workin out a lot more to buy trannys and so on so i started with RTR model i can hop up at my own pace then thanks for all the advice i will be carefull in running in

Welcome new members don't forget to tell us your name and alttle about yourself I know your out there guys say hi
 
Hi all..

New to the forum also.... I have been into RC off and on for the past 15 years. I started out with a Tamiya Frog and F1 road car.

I got out of the hobby for a long time. Then I got into gliders, mainly the attack type gliders. I have one that I am putting together as we speak. But then I saw some kids playing with a gas powered car in the park and man was I feeling the urge. So I mentioned to my wife in passing and what do you know for xmas this year was a nice Savage X under the tree!! One happppppyy camper.

By day I work on computers, have a graphics/web site business on the side along with other ventures... I also love photography!

Happy to be here and I can't wait to start modding out my Savage X..... I have been looking at some of the street cars and my next car is going to be the Traxxas Nitro 4-Tec 3.3 RTR Sedan........... Give me more speed!

R~
