Im gonna be racing for the first time ever this weekend!My LHS has races in the parking lot every sunday so Im gonna give it a shot.I am gonna be racing my ERBE.I just got it a week ago and have already put some mods on.I ordered some street wheels and tires so maybe I wont come in last..lol.I still only have the stock batteries so Im sure I will get smoked but I dont care cause its still a blast Im sure.Wish me luck!:cool:
JF what is a ERBE. I am not sure what RC it is. What race are you going to. I have only gone to hobby towns race. I know big boys has a race on Sundays also. Man you will love racing. Very exhilarating. If we go to the same rac I might be able to let you use one of my lipos. I have a venom 2s5000mah that you can try.
Don, I believe it's a shortcut for
Electric Revo Brushless Edition
I had to figure it out too, (along with several others) on the Traxxas forums:)
Thanks Mayberry Kid! I was also pondering of the meaning of ERBE
Yes thanks Mayberry kid. I see a lot of abbreviations on the traxxas forums. Today's the day. Going register at one and race at two. Going to change my strategy today. Last week I nailed it from the start and at the first turn got hit and flipped or spun around. Today I will start slow so I can hopefully make the first turn cleanly. Hopefully all the other guys wreck or spin out on first turn then I can pick my line and drive throu it. Should be fun. Going to run my P4de. That's a 4x4 stampede.lol I just put some new losi ten-t shocks on it. They are bigger than the proline powerstrokes. Picture to follow.
Here are the new losi ten-t shocks with custom mounts.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/28/apusebeh.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/28/e3a7umy3.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/28/ha5eraqy.jpg check out my new losi eight scale shocks in the middle. Big bores on left and prolines on right. These are going on project need for p2de.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/28/uguta5yb.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/28/u7ynamu2.jpg

Don, those look REALLY good! the way the blue ties in with the other blue, fantastic. Those are a lot bigger than the powerstrokes. were the powerstrokes good, like easy to adjust and easy to clean, would you recommend them if the losi's weren't an option?
and is that a carbon fiber chassis or is it just a sticker?
Carbon fibre is a sticker. I had no problems with the powerstrokes. I also have the spring kit for them as well. I had some bad wrecks and big jumps and never bent a shaft on them. Plus they are threaded so body height is easily adjusted. I would recommend the proline over the traxxas big bores. The losi ten-t shocks were cheaper than the prolines. Got them on eBay. I did upgrade the caps, collars to aluminum and got the gold stiffer springs. Losi offers a lot of spring options. I think after upgrading the losi shocks I spent $100 total on them. The prolines are easy to clean and on there website they offer a tutorial video on filling them with oil.
Ok thanks, Ive bent my front shafts a few tiimes and bent em back, never replaced them, stll work fine. I wanted to get the big bores, but thanks to your advise, ill get the powerstrokes.
