Outcast Out drive bearing shim !!

[typhon34]

I think the council own it but the club must look after it. They reckon the surface is thin and the RC's damage it. I think he doesn't want to be showed up by some dude with a MT. Let's face it BMX is getting boring I'll be back there

Just leave them a broom and a note that says sorry about the mess!! haha...
Hobby shop called.... Outcast delayed again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting my money back and ordering on ebay... 730 delivered to my door.
Looked on tower and its 850 with postage and a 50usd discount!!

Nice !!
Got out today found a new spot. It's a little BMX Jumps spot. Good fun but hard on the rigs. Damp sand gets everywhere I had a clean up and change a couple bearings on the Outcast. Pretty happy have only had to change one before these.
I'm thinking skate park in winter and BMX sand/gravel Jumps in summer ??

That looks like a sweet spot!! Fine sand is a pain in the arse tho. Gets in everywhere
I'll either head down my usual spot... Or head out to noble falls... Its about an hour away but if its no good near the falls theres a motocross track near by
You still running stock bearings??
Ive had 2 go on the typhon and thats it so far... Pretty good for 9 months of running 2 cars i reckon.

Motorcross track would be mad fun !!
Still stock bearings in the Outcast apart from a rear outdrive bearing, but she hasn't seen a lot of water. I changed the front bearings in the Kraton last time I got excited in a wet sandy BMX track

Yeah man... This arvo no mx track but still a good bash.... Poor typhon copped a beating tho. Met my mate that has no cars at the park after my other mate with a kraton couldnt make it down. Said he could use my typhon as i had a poop load of batteries charged up... And He has used it before... But End result.....

Nah didn't get out Sunday crap weather.
I've done the exact thing to my Outcast. Big tail landings snap the rear chassis brace or bulkhead on the diff case and bend the tail up like a taco. The tower to tower stops it but puts a bit more stress on towers.

Yeah... Thats what he did. I said go for it and if something breaks it breaks so all is good
Picked up the bits i need at lunch today so will fix em up tonight....

Bugga about the weather... Weve had rain for a few weeks now then all of a sudden it was 20 and sunny all weekend... Hopefully next weekend is good here and over there too!

Sweet !! How is she all fixed ?
That's pretty cool giving him the green light to go hard. I tell him break it you can wrench it ha ha !!
Hey I've got a fair bit of black 12mm x 12mm aluminium box left if you want a couple tower braces ??
Next time I'm over that way I expect an invite to beat your Kraton Joking!!!!

Yeah he's pretty good tho... Wont do anything stupid so if something breaks its because of a crash or bad landing... And not because he just went full throttle into a tree or something...
Been thinking about a tower brace on the kraton... But its still straight so will get some gka's and see how they go first...
But yeah man... If you are in perth at some stage give me a yell! Might even have an outcast by then and at least i know you know how to fix what you break

And speaking of fixed.....

Nice work !! Tidy rigs and tidy bench bra to easy.
The Typhon looks sweet. Would love one !!!
I'd definitely get the GKA's first and give them a go without the tower brace. My first chassis bend I put one on straight away while I was waiting for the GKA's to arrive so I haven't really tested it without one. Good to c mas had all the parts u needed.
