brian from big squid rc was there filming some video.
I had fun today even though my truck was never officially running. I had mistakely put the piston in the wrong way when I tore it down to check everything and I could barely even start it. I wouldn't idle at all. Finally fixed it, but ever tightened some screws while messing with the carb (thinking it was the problem earlier) and stripped it out. Stupid composite carb! I'm gonna take traxxas up on their trade in deal and pick up a new 2.5R motor and give them my junk one.
