So if there is any racing up island before our race season starts is anyone interested in going up if they do?

Haha I almost had the 10.5 ready to go but I have had enough of trying the booster since it got hot. And I can't put
the 17.5 together as I am gonna go offroad racing this weekend if the weather is good. If not Sunday will be a tear down and rebuild day. Swap some gear and some soldering nice way to spend the rain weekend if it happens lol. Shouldn't take long but gonna take my time with it.

maybe i could hook up with someone for a crash course in tekin tuning. i set the car up and got it all ready but i don't know the terms and various settings for the esc.
itchin to test it out too. took it to mayfair underground which didn't go well.. way too smooth surface. all it did was doughnuts ha.

this will def be a clean wire project sometime later in the season. though not sure where to stuff any of them. learned my lesson shortening wires with the tc.

12scale car will only do donuts unless you have traction.
