Cool mad! Those micro-ramunators are a lot of fun! I did somstff to mine I did a spring job and added some stiff springs I found in some pens. Also hot glued a penny on the front to keep the nose down. Have fun with it!:D

[Mad Racer]

Thanks! That sounds great. Those tips looks like they can be helpful!

Sweet ride i saw the vids what motor and esc are you runnin? i was gonna get a micro desert truck today but they just look too small to have with little kids running around all the time. :(

[LSXEric]

I think its stock right? Looks the same as my near stock micro-raminator.

[Mad Racer]

It's fully stock. The only upgrade I did was add ball bearings in it. The motor, ESC, battery, etc. are stock, no changes. Pretty fast out of the box for such a small truck. :D

Hey mad one other thing when a streing link breaks dont use a plastic one get some scrap lexsand and make a new one. Works MUCH better.

[Mad Racer]

Hmm, well, those steering plastic arms bends and breaks easily. Yeah, I know where scrap lexan comes from, from the scraps of cutting those lexan bodies. :D

But I can use zip ties as well, in fact I seen many did it. Hmm...

thsoe are prretty kool videos

[LSXEric]

Hey Mad what do u mean by zip-ties? How would u do that?:confused:

[Mad Racer]

Well, I seen many using zipties to replace the stock steering arms, when broken. Not sure it works as good as the stock ones though.

[LSXEric]

O well I use the lexsand because it seems as they are much tougher.

[Mad Racer]

Yeah, especially if using the scraps off the Pro-Line bodies!

[LSXEric]

OMG, the .40 lexsand is nuts! I have a deep hate for E-clips and turnbuckles, but trimming bodies is in the top 5 hated list!

[Mad Racer]

Lol, yeah it is! Those bodies are too think to cut!

[LSXEric]

Just hate it cause im left handed and most curve sicors are for right handed people. Also I always cut hands with lexsand!

[Mad Racer]

That's not good. I still cut my hands as well, trying to cut those lexans.

[LSXEric]

I try to where gloves, but dont get a good trim. So it cuting bodies takes blood sweat and tears!:D

[Mad Racer]

Lol, yeah, I mostly take my time cutting them, but they take forever!

[LSXEric]

Yea I take like hours to cut them right. I usally get brusies on my tumbs! O well I'll get over it.

[Mad Racer]

Yeah, or either the fingers get numb.

[LSXEric]

Never turned numb before but did slice my vein really bad I had to get some stiches:eek: Stupid bodies!

[Mad Racer]

Ouch, that must hurt a lot.

[LSXEric]

Not too bad felt like a bad pinch but kinda freaked me out. I never knew blood shoot. I jjust put pressur on it and a trip to the ER later I was painting the body.

[Mad Racer]

Lol, I see.
