Thanx guys!
Here's a vid of the opening day at Taupo track NZ
Great day with lots of public attending and checking out all the cars hopefully a few sales for me in the process:dance:
They even invited the Major of Taupo city and he was very impressed to the extent of looking at buying a car for himself!!!! Great to have the local council behind you!

We had a working bee on my local Hamilton track last weekend and changed the track layout! Is alot faster and maybe easier for the Bajas to keep up with Nutech 4wd :dance:

Now that looks like a fun track to drive! Love to collision with the 5b....you broke his buggy LOL! It really whines (winds)? out going down the back slope, betcha you beat every one hey?!
RCKIWI
12-20-2009, 10:16 PM
Yeah is a great track! pritty lucky here, have our local track then 2 others within 150k's north and south of me! and all different and surfaces.
Yep my TB2 goes real well now I have gone back to Zen 2bolt 23cc:D and I am using Nutechs X-can on it good low to mid but lacking a bit up top, but the extra revs from the 23cc makes up a bit.
Deffo had some fun yesterday with the car as it was only a fun day not racing, but still kicked some Baja's:D

I love the elevation changes ... man that looks like a fun spot to run. Our local spot is basically an oval which to me is boring. I prefer hitting the dunes and making a landscape track (depends what the workers have left as it's in the boggy area so they pile sand 30-40 feet to settle the area before they can build)

Man your MT flies good and looks great too, is that the factory blue or is that your company colours? I'm getting withdrawals watching your vids, smack dab in the middle of winter here so we seldom get to run! and bye the way if you were in North America that would be considered the correct direction LOL! Great vids..keep em coming!

great vids Bryan!! How are all of your mods working out?
I wish the snow here would go away soon. :rifle:
RCKIWI
02-17-2010, 04:18 AM
Mods are great but will be better tested on my home track to have a good comparison, the Taupo track is alot rougher as in the vids you can see my car bounces around quite a bit as I didn't change the suspension setup. What I really need is 2 cars:no: may have to look at the Mega MT to be a donor car for a second buggy with wider arms and if I can get more suspension travel from out if it for rough tracks:excited:
