just to say hello and ask for help

[acvolks]

hi ppl how are you all i am thinking of taking up racing again i did it years ago my last car was a cat 2000 so i am just looking around to see what you lot are using. To see what i will get and boy have things changed bigger batteries, spektrum, and tyre warmers i thought i was seeing things when i poped my head in to the club and so many old faces ( sorry Andy no pun intended) lol so if any one has any tips or advice on what car i should get i have been looking at a TT01 but i don't know how tune able it is or should i go 4 a trf415 which looks very good but very costly and as i am haveing to start all over again can anyone help ....:roll:

[big si]

I'm sure we could help David but dunno if i want too :lol:


its always nice to see the old faces return to the club.

first things first cars
loads to choose from but from memory you were always one for stripping the car on a regular basis i would have to say one of the new xray yok bd cyclone or one of the many new tamiyas (easy cars to maintain and repair)

radio gear
spektrum is awesome but with its release it has made all other frequencies freer

cells
the new breed of IB cells are awesome but if just for club racing GP3300 are more than enough

i think that answers all your questions

Si

[acvolks]

thank u m8 its been a long time i will pop down on fri for a wee look i think i have a long way to go b4 getting back into the swing of things and know what i need an the way of what car and other parts

[acvolks]

si what car you useing

[big si]

i run the yokomo BD
but if i were asked to recommend a car i would firstly recommend the
XRAY T2007 and then the BD

[ballsie]

Of course Simon means the Hot Bodies Cyclone first then the Xray etc. :)

Just so happens I've got one for sale :lol:

[big si]

oooooo that was a cheap fly add there ballsie :lol:


classic

[acvolks]

[acvolks]

[ballsie]

I'll be advertising later in the week.

Cheers.

[big si]

with out doubt that was work of genius
dave its a good car and well looked after

ballsie give the man a price you may have a sale there :lol:

[acvolks]

ok will keep eyes open thanks 4 that

[acvolks]

what do you think of the trf415msx it looks good

[big si]

its a good car but caused me loads of grief when i had one and not the easiest to set up

[acvolks]

there is a lot of cars out there now it was 3or 4 types when i raced b4 and a lot more tuning parts as well oooooo my head hurts with all this thinking lol

[ballsie]

with out doubt that was work of genius
dave its a good car and well looked after

ballsie give the man a price you may have a sale there :lol:

The problem is I have 2 for sale and 1 is provisionally sold - just not sure which one :lol:

They are both the purple Hara Edition kits.

[bigchris]

they are both excellent cars , i know i cant make my mind up lol

[scotty]

The TRF 415 MSX MRE is the one you want as it's awesome m8.Best handling car i've had.
But everyones got their favourites i suppose.

[Kevin Falconer]

X-ray t2 or the newer 007 is the car to have, cant be a bad car going by what iv won with it

[acvolks]

there is possibly no point in me going daft and getting the best car first time back cos it will be down the straight and into the wall lol ...what is the MI2 like as a car is there still a lot of parts and upgrades for it ???????????

[ballsie]

Just advertised my Cyclone - http://www.falkirkrcc.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=7226#post7226

Since you're new I'd include a 27 turn and 19 turn motor.

[acvolks]

ta ballsie i think i need to start small as i have to get eveything ...have any one herd of . TIFK EVO2 XRAY , MONSTER MYO2 ( ment to be a step bellow trf415)

[ballsie]

No worries.

I'd steer clear of the MY02 for one reason - availability of spare parts; I've never seen any spares for it (although some 415 parts can be used).

You might want to take a look at ebay and the Hot Bodies Cyclone S - you can get these for well under £100 from Hong Kong.

Cheers.

And if you give me a shout, I am getting rid of a load of cells, and some electrics.
