I was on HPI rubber Phaltlines. Foamy's are not allowed per the rules. The foam's I would have gone WAY faster. Problem is I ran into the limit of the tires....not the truck.

Yes, the Phaltlines are no good for anything above 75-80. I put a set of new ones at 76 and they ripped off in 2 passes!! I heard IMEX is coming out with a MT foam tire similiar to what JACO made for the Tmaxxs a few years ago...

Good Morning Guys,

DISASTER!!! The motor I purchased was apparently no good!! I had purchased a used motor from someone on another forum and it seems to have had problems. Before I left my house I ran the truck with the wheels off the ground on 5S for about 5 minutes pulling throttle on/off at about 1/8-1/4 throttle. I noticed the motor got to about 170ish with no load! I assumed it may have been because of no load on the motor. Well...............

got to the spot, prepped the truck and was able to run it for about 10 seconds. It took off from where I was fine. I made one pass at about 1/4 throttle to make sure everything sounded ok and it did. Brought it back to line it up again and when it got to the end to turn it back around it wouldn't move!!! When I got it back to the table you could smell the heat coming from the motor and it temped at about 220 at that point! I am going to try to contact Neu and see what they say as well as the guy who sold it to me as it was supposed to be an "almost new" motor.......

OH WELL I think I am going to try a Medusa until I sort this out so this will be out of commision for a little while.............
