Starting my RC Drag racing venture.

[GMbusa]

I'm getting into the no prep RC drag world. Bought a DR10 drag car. So much involved to do it. Chassis prep, tire prep.

VERY cool......

I take it you will be making videos....

I've watched a few on You Tube and some of these are pretty serious machines.

Nice ! It's just like tuning a real car and can get expensive if you get hooked on the Hobby hard. I have a Arrma Limitless setup for top end speed runs and wish we had more folks get into the Hobby around here cause I'd like to join a Drag Group.

Have Fun

Man I’ve thought about jumping into this… years ago I had a truggy (off-road racing truck) for those that don’t know… and I had about 4k into it and more with all the extra parts. Very expensive hobby to get into and that’s what kept me from diving back in..
then… GMbusa goes and does this… with pics and all….
Must
Resist….

It's like a Time Hobby, get bored with it put it on the shelf and grab the Boat or the Helicopter or the Airplane then a year later back to the Car.
Jump back in the water is fine.

I went to an RC airshow a few years ago....it was nothing other than amazing..

These guys had tens of thousands into some of their aircraft....

Looks good! I had a buggy and truggy in the past.

Pete Harrell built a dyno for his!

And built a parachute for it

I certainly didn't know they had dynos for these.....

Pretty cool....

New slicks and bead locks. Prepped the suspension. Now it's going to rain..
Carbon fiber rings coming to replace the red ones.

Looking good GMbusa !

Took my Limitless out to another parking lot and could only get up to 80 mph before getting hard on the brakes. I got a 90's era RC10 car that might be better for Drag's with a few Mods. It's only money and you can't take it with you anyhow LOL.

80mph, that's moving, do you have it on GPS or something to know how fast it's going?

I mounted a GPS in the car and I'm slow compared to others LOL, I'll be happy breaking 100. The Big Dogs are aiming for 200 mph.

I was going to take my RC Airplane out to our Club site but I'm afraid Biden will shoot it down !
