:D Hey guys. I live in northeren california (Lodi to be more precise) and the weater dude said rain until sunday. Im gonna be in Arizona around then so it doesnt matter much but how does weather affect you guys??? I mean if u have weater proffed elecs then no prob. So whats the weather do to your rc lives??? :confused: :confused: :confused:

I only dont run my rc's if its below 20F, or if its raining. The snow definately won't stop me (actually makes me want to drive more).

Yesterday I was using a snow bank from where my dad plows as a jump. It was warm the other day and the snow was hard and crunchy. What a blast :D

[twistedtrik]

where at in arizona? i live just south of tucson. supposed to rain here all weekend too!

[Toyotatogo]

I swear the weather guy here in Los Angeles doesn't have a clue about the forecast. First he said rain lastweek tuesday all the way till sunday, which didn't happen. Then the news said rain yesterday until Saturday of this week which looks as if he's smoking crack because the skies are clear and it's sunny and dry. I dunno about the news anymore, they spend all this money on the tec-na-logical weather measurement tools..... lol and still can't get it right..... :confused:

Oh man i drove my B3 last year in a foot of snow. I dont know what took longer, jumping into the powder or having to dig for the car.

[trw]

my car sits when it rains cause that'd be like drifting :D

my TNX since it's electronics are selaed can run in the rain, mud anything wet, so rain doesnt really ruin my day, actually makes it more fun, only cleaning off all the mud is a pain.

Weather - it just depends on how I feel. I've run the MGT in everything from 10F to 100F dry as can be, to snow on the ground, and everything in between. But if I don't feel like being too cold, or too hot, or cleaning the truck off when I get done, I don't run it.

yeah its supposed to be raining all this week, but its been dry and sunny all week....

Im gonna be in Tucson! I want to visit the local track while im there (i found it on RCCA.com). But im there for my neighbors wedding. He moved ther and is gettin hitched! I cant wait! I WANNA VISIT THE TRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[djgrom]

yeah dude, living on the coast of anywhere kinda sucks cause rain is kidna random and the humidity keeps everyting real wet, so you get burned out quick on mud, and cleaning your car

[twistedtrik]

there is 2 in tucson. hobbytowns is small and outdoors. competition has a really nice indoor setup, but its electrics only. i would recommend competition if i were you. really nice facility, races are on sat. and wed.

[Pat Fierle]

I live in buffalo and the weather is ridiculus. It is snowing one day and then 50 degrees the next day. lucky for me i got a indoor track i made for xray m18. Its sweet. And i made a huge wood jump indoors too to jump my buggy. i really dont got to drive my maxx in the snow cause that is what my snowmobile is for

[TMaxxBenny25]

i might go visit competition hobbies. I am gonna run my electric rustler. I cant wait ! gonna leave within an hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm in norcal too. generally i wont run in the rain, but every once in a while i will go run while it is raining. it helps to have a waterproof esc. i just dont like the amount of post run maintenance that is required after you run a r/c in the wet. so i only do it once in a while. lots of fun when i do though. touring cars are a blast, but watch out for puddles. trucks are the most fun, just go out and throw some wicked roosts.

[TMaxxBenny25]

I just got back from tucson about 30 mins ago. I WENT TO COMPETITION HOBBIES!!!!! I bought a new spur and watched a dirt oval race and 2 off road races. I saw a novice stock 1 with a Losi RTR XXXt and a few Associated T4s and B4s. Then i saw a mod 2wd buggy race!! It was awsome!!!!

[twistedtrik]

what did you think of competition? they have a great facility. too bad they wont run nitro.

[TMaxxBenny25]

I loved it !!! It was awesome! Were u ther on Saturday? I was there about an hour before closing.

[twistedtrik]

no, i stopped by hobby town to pick up a few things but never made it to competition.

[TMaxxBenny25]

Oh. the mod buggy race was insane!!!

[MORTER MAN]

I am like the mail man, no matter what the weather, I will always run my Monster GT on sunday of every weeek, because it's the only day I run. have I seen any ill efects? nope. she still runs like a champ after drenching rain, or 3 feet of snow.

[TMaxxBenny25]

I know... The weather man here predicted rain :( all day and guess what.... IT WAS SUNNY ALL DAY!!! :p Sometimes i wonder i y watch the news................ :confused:
