    That's super cool.

    Hoping life will slow down a bit so I can come RallyX soon.

    RallyX is great low buck racing. However if you have ever road raced you have to take everything you ever learned and toss it out the window.

    Left foot braking is your best friend to set up car. So much fun.

    Getting things buttoned up for the race this weekend. I have one more big mod to do, hopefully I will have that done tonight. I don't think I will have time to really fix the exhaust before Sunday so I'll more than likely end up rigging it the best i can. Man I'm loving the stance on this thing. And before you ask, no its not missing a lug nut, it just has one of the old ones on there still. I was waiting for the rest of my new ones to come in.

    Well that was a fun little side project! I've had this rc car since the mid 90's that I got from radio-shack for Christmas from my parents. It's crazy to think that even the wheels match! lol

    I'm excited to see how much the tires help.

    Have you fixed the weight balance issues?

    thanks guys, this has been a freaking fun and simple build so far. This weekend it finally got tires! 215/65r16 General Grabber 2's on some OZracing wheels. I'm so happy with the look, and even more happy that it doesn't rub! I can't wait to try it out on the 30th.





    it's come a long way in a short time. Next on the list is I absolutely have to do something about the exhaust. Even with how much higher it is now the exhaust draggs on the ground a lot. Most of the hangers are broken, and it's all bent up. But i still have some time. I'm going to call a fe exhaust shops and see what my options are.

    New videos awesome! New seat is an epic improvement. SN95 seat tracks and seats suck big time. It makes driving the cars fast a steering wheel grip of death nightmare. I laugh thinking about you holding onto the steering wheel to stay in the seat plus no power steering. The ultimate SN95 nightmare. My helmet is ready to go too.

    I’ve been shopping Subies thanks to these vids. If the Miata and 944 go, I have room for one too.

    So itll have to look like one of those 4-5 element FSAE wings with a ridiculous angle of attack.

    Try inserting some related b roll footage during your narration to break up the long stretches of talking. That'll help your retention.
    thanks
