your right Mike, I was thinking as in RC parts. Because it takes less Ti to make a rc part just as strong as a thicker steel part. Like turnbuckles

pondering going smallblock - Tex - 03-26-2006
yes more pins have snapped in the tranny Jerry, about 4 total now over time. Well I broke in the heats and sold my P5/OS 2050 so now it's a 3.3/THS for me.

Tex man I could have used you I bumped from the B to the A but decied not to race it due to no pit guy (HINT HINT) just messin. Tough luck today bro but I think in the long run you will be more then happy with the 3.3 at least you dont have to have stock in spur gears anymore LOL.

sorry Bri, I had to make it to the hobby shop before it closed so I had to break outta there.

pondering going smallblock - Tex - 03-27-2006

pondering going smallblock - too fast - 03-27-2006

pondering going smallblock - FreeRideFrosty - 03-27-2006
I think gabe is going to be even more lethal...
pondering going smallblock - destroy_my_revo_15 - 03-27-2006
thats what im afraid of....more practice for me i guess the only way to get better.
pondering going smallblock - Tex - 03-27-2006
