[Maxx man]

haha! already on the calender...

[Maxx man]

just hope I can get my emaxx fixed up by then...

[NLRCMD]

Well Get it Fixed! SMC is most likely sending lipo batteries so this is the event you want to win for sure.

I told you I have the parts and I can probably get it fixed in about an hour.

[Maxx man]

I would love to let you fix it but I think you were right about the diff... all I need to do is get to the hobby shop... just have to wait till next week...

[Lyric]

wel i got my s-maxx running but i missed the race but i should be ready for this one for sure i might still be able to catch up witht the points in all that but i need a body mike pm me so i can tell u what i need its something simple

Did you get the 4wd put in yet? I still have the parts sitting at my house in a bag waiting for you. It's been like 3 months now...

I am busy for the next month and will not be able to paint any bodies right now. I got way to much going on with Work, NLRCMD & Vacation at the end of this month.

[NLRCMD]

Here we go... I just got back from vacation and planning next saturday's event. You guys ready?

[Maxx man]

Here we go... I just got back from vacation and planning next saturday's event. You guys ready?

no lol I have the parts for my emaxx but I still gotta fix it....

[Maxx man]

emaxx is almost fixed... just need some new bearings... and then reassembly

[NLRCMD]

I have to take my E-Maxx apart tonight. I think the diffs are backwards. When going forward and I hit brake the truck goes into reverse but when in reverse and I hit the gas the truck slows down to a stop as if I were applying the brakes and I have to double pump the throttle to get it to move forward. Wierd but it has been bothering me for a while. I think I have been running the truck in reverse all this time. URGH. I might as well put the Traxxas Aluminum bulkheads on that I have sitting here since I will have it all apart.

I am still waiting on my Brushless ESC that I burnt up at Hagerstown. Hopefully it will be back here by the end of the month. I already miss running that truck and I hardly got to run it.

Nitros are still all good...

[Maxx man]

just got the bearings... just have to put it back together... probebly do that tonight or tommorow

[Maxx man]

my emaxx is alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! and it runs awsome!! this truck is why I love this hobby:D

[NLRCMD]

Cool Beans... Glad you got it running again.

If I get the time I will have my E-Maxx running in the right direction, lol. My Daughters Cheerleading just started yesterday so there goes most of my free time. So, hopefully before the event.

See you Saturday. We are supposed to have new shirts for sale if they get completed before then. I just got a package from SMC... Good luck!

Hey Chris, I will shoot you an e-mail with everything you need to run those lipos later on today. I just woke up in my lazy-boy, lol. (it's 4:24am) I crashed when I got done unloading my truck and all. Congrats on 2nd place, you are quickly becoming a top competitor. It's pretty awesome that we got your Dad hooked now also! :)

DeAndre - Get that 4wd in that truck. at the next event get there a little early and I will help you get your truck tuned and ready to race.

NLRCMD President

[Maxx man]

haha thanks for the lipo's man!! Im glad I could come and have a ton of fun... just wondering how do I get the bye runs? cause I wasnt the fastest qualify... I dont really care but shoulnt tq get the bye?

[NLRCMD]

The TQ will get it from now on. We are going to make changes to the brackets anyway. We are gonna put the TQ at the bottom of the bracket and put the #2 guy at the top so if they make it they will end up against each other in the final race.

[Maxx man]

cool... sounds like a plan!

[NLRCMD]

What a great day! 35 Registered Trucks! The Website has been updated, check it out www.nolimitrcofmaryland.com

[NLRCMD]

The Video. I might re-upload it tonight. It doesn't look right.

http://www.hobbyzip.com/videos/997/nlrcmd-august-8th-2009.html

[Maxx man]

I think it turned out pretty good but I do see what ya mean...

thanks for givin me lots of camera time:D

[NLRCMD]

I do the best I can with the videos that other people take. I did most of the freestyle and all of the pulling vids but some of the racing clips weren't that good, so I picked a few of the best.

I have to save it a different way from the editor and upload it again to make it better but I will probably just update the website with the fixed one. This is the first video with my new Movie editor so errors and mistakes are accepted, lol.

[Maxx man]

ah I see what ya mean... I still think it worked out pretty well

[LSXEric]

[Lyric]

im running a O.S. .18 motor but when it's tuned right it willl out run most 3.3's on a good day

[NLRCMD]

Did you get the 4wd put in yet?

My 3.3 Revo Roller should be here this week. I am building a Revo Big Block and making the Black Stallion T-Maxx into my Big Block Puller. I hope to have it done before the next race (the revo) because I need to get some points in that class.

[Lyric]

yea i put it in last week but im still tuning it

[Maxx man]

im running a O.S. .18 motor but when it's tuned right it willl out run most 3.3's on a good day

haha ya the os .18's are some crazy motors for sure!

[Lyric]

soon or later i sould be getting a lpr .28 motor 4 the s-maxx

[NLRCMD]

soon or later i sould be getting a lpr .28 motor 4 the s-maxx

It's not an S-Maxx anymore. It's a T-Maxx with Forward Only Conversion, lol.

I'll put my 3.3 up against your O.S. Anyday or we can just do some speed runs with the radar gun that I always have with me at the events.

[Maxx man]

dang!!! thats alot of power in a maxx truck!!!!! hope you have revo spec driveshafts in that puppy!

[NLRCMD]

dang!!! thats alot of power in a maxx truck!!!!! hope you have revo spec driveshafts in that puppy!

Yes you will have to beef up the driveshafts for sure.

[Maxx man]

[Lyric]

It's not an S-Maxx anymore. It's a T-Maxx with Forward Only Conversion, lol.

I'll put my 3.3 up against your O.S. Anyday or we can just do some speed runs with the radar gun that I always have with me at the events.

once i get them needles right your 3.3 ain't nothin compared to the os 18 but i clocked it at 43 mph what you running a 3.3 in

[Lyric]

Yes you will have to beef up the driveshafts for sure.

im going with the cvd's for the t-maxx

[NLRCMD]

My General Lee (Revo) with stock gearing.

[Maxx man]

my emaxx hits 30 tops lolol but my slash once I get the lipo's goin will be about 45mph!

[NLRCMD]

I have a 5000mah 11.1v Lipo that I am trying to get rid of that will make your slash InSaNe.

[Maxx man]

I have a 5000mah 11.1v Lipo that I am trying to get rid of that will make your slash InSaNe.

realy?!?!?!?!?! how much! I may buy it at the next race!

[NLRCMD]

I'll bring it with me and I will cut you a deal for sure.

[Maxx man]

[Lyric]

if i can contact josh i might be getting that warhead evo from him

[NLRCMD]

Send me an e-mail at nolimitrcofmaryland@msn.com and tomorrow I will forward you his e-mail.

[Lyric]

i got his number in all that he just hasent been picking up lately

[Maxx man]

I was just thinking that my slash will be like 55-60+mph on that 11.1v:eek:

[NLRCMD]

I had 11.1v in my Rustler when I had it and it was very fast.

[Maxx man]

in the rusty its supposed to be able to hit almost 70 right?

[NLRCMD]

The Slash will get up to about 40-45mph then it will be on it's lid.

[Maxx man]

thats true... but if my plan works Im gunna get a roll cage and cut the bed part of the slash body off and costom make some body mounts it should almost cancle out the whole parachute... almost

my quest (after I finish my clod) is to make the most scale looking baja slash ever built....

[LSXEric]

Haha parachute it is! I put in an 8 cell tenergy battery today in my Dads slash with a 28/76 gearing, it didn't wheelie, but once up past the 45 mph barrier over she went. 50.4 was top today.

[Maxx man]

haha ya... did you see the pics of my new shell? go back 3 pages if you havent seen it yet

[Lyric]

its awsome what kind of body is that
