rcmt did help me out with compatibility questions with my Sledgehammer with newer parts. I've been so busy with buying a house and working on it that I haven't been on hardly any sites regarding r/c or monster trucks though haha.

Looks awesome. Love what they did with the handling of the guns while firing.

That is quite a great run with an epic finish. I'm surprised he was able to turn that over and definitely surprised they didn't shut him off at all.

Wow those are some nice dragsters!

My batteries died right before he did the damned backflip. I was upset at that. And looking back at the video and the track I guess there's less wrong than I originally thought. Seems just the entrance placement, there's a missing car (my side of the stadium towards the left. Both sets of cars are double cars on that side. Don't mean to make a big deal just wanting to help with info where I can to help whomever is trying to create a more complete replica of the real thing. My link

Finally gave this a try. Definitely a fun track. See my video's if you want good examples of the difference between this track and the real one from last year. For reference the entrance from my vids where the truck entered are on my side, to my left. I'll be at this years event this upcoming weekend with my boyfriend. I'll get pics from different angles this year as we show up way before the main event while it's still light out. Of course it'll be before they rearrange for the freestyle as well when I take the full view pics. http://www.youtube.com/user/foxdude0486?feature=mhum

woot Monster Patrol and Predator. Brings back memories from when I was a kid and my dad used to take me to shows. Had an old predator shirt with pre-ripped holes and fake blood on the side from back then haha.

I definitely can't wait for it I had the original 1942. Died off for a while and came back for Battlefield Bad Company 2 and loved it. So I'm sure I'll buy and love BF3 when it comes out.

Have fun guys. I personally just can't wait to see the track as i was at the show last year and jaw dropped watching the backflip in person. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with this year since I'll be there. I'll be monitoring my cameras batteries better so they don't die right before another move as good as that backflip haha!

Hadn't seen a time, what time should we start prepping to get in chat and qualify?

Are you getting the error when downloading from here, or the megaupload site? Because the file on this site is just a text file telling you to download from the megaupload site. edit: After watching that youtube vid, tomorrow's races should prove to be very interesting. I don't have time to try the track tonight, but will tomorrow and hope the grip on the pavement matches what I just saw. Need to practice not flipping around those hairpin turns hahaha.

Not a big fan of roundy round either heheh, though twisty tracks I'd do.

Should be there in 106.7 The Fox. Sucks that I missed the last one. Will have to try and make up for it!

completely missed the event. Didn't even think about it last night though I think I checked a few days ago and figured maybe it was off for the holidays or something...

aim is Fox Dude0486 for anyone that needs it. casey im'd me to let me know.

I read that there's an open chat? I hadn't heard anything back since I qualified, so I'm not sure how to get to the chat unless it's the one on the main page? Sorry, never done an official run before.

Well I wouldn't even be around for the eve. Will be 4 hours away in Tampa, but I should be here Sunday afternoon for the two events from this site. Will be exciting to say the least! I'll try to run more consistently in the freestyles compared to the last time I got on with a bunch of you guys.

Just ran the track. Never ran on a track like this, nor seen one besides a couple youtube vids. Should prove interesting.

There better be high quality videos of this show for me. Saturdays are my worst nights to be on for anything, but the 18th is the worst Saturday because I'll be in because I'll be at a car club kill the keg party 4 hours away in Tampa.

Yeah, having the cars cause issues is a common thing right now. Happened to me when freestyling last night, caused the truck to behave oddly and even at slow speeds hitting it directly, my truck went sideways.

rear steer is directly linked to engine rpm for how fast it turns. Luckily you don't need to get the engine rpm up to fast to steer. As for the front wheels, there should be sensitivity settings in the configuration app to adjust how quick it turns. A wheel and pedals would DEFINITELY improve what you get out of simulation games like this one. I have a Logitech G25, which gives me a 6 speed shifter with reverse, and a clutch pedal added to the mix, and paddle shifters on the wheel. Now, for Monster trucks, I set it up so that paddle shifters shift, clutch (useful for getting to a ramp then dumping power, as well as backflips), and set my shifter into a forwards/backwords mode. All I have to do for rear steer is push the shifter forward for left, let go and it re-centers, pull back and it rear-steers right. I prefer this over the other way around, because the paddles turn with the wheel, and I don't want to have to look down at the wheel to know which paddle is turning left/right, and I don't shift to often when turning. If you want to master fast turning, either get very slow to improve your turn radius, or learn how to throw the rear end around without rolling the truck.

Ah ok, so it's pretty new, and up north. I lived near Detroit for a good 8 years, but moved back to Florida back in 2005. As long as it's good to throw into the season races here. Used to listen to 89x when living up there. Wonder if we'll get the same trucks as last year here in Jacksonville. My batteries died last year during Nitro Circus run, right before he did the backflip. Didn't have time to swap in new ones and keep recording video.

Guess I'll sign up since everyone seems to be doing it, will try to make what I can, though I'm horrible at racing... Truck: 106.7 The Fox AIM: Fox Dude0486 email: foxdude@foxdude.net Didn't know the existence of this truck till this game... But it fits, eh?

Is there any way to watch the race from the sidelines? Or does it cause to much in the area of lag or video making? I've never played online with RoR yet. That, and I'm definitely not good enough for racing yet haha! I have trouble with those sharp turns..
