Came to hassle you about that 😂 Good pin!

@thejeepinrealtor5742 Год назад

I literally raced my first race this past Saturday. Had a blast. I was HORRIBLE. But I had a blast. Raced a Tekno ET48.3. And Spec Slash. Had more fun at spec slash, I was able to drive it better etc, but the Tekno was completely new to me. And my tires had half tread. Can’t wait to get more into it. I’m getting used models of the 4 main classes we run here that I am interested in. Going to see which class I prefer and get to know the sport better, then focus on a couple etc. Glad to have a good club here. 1:8 buggy is big here 1:8 truggy pretty big Spec slash big 1:10 2wd buggy pretty big 1:10 4wd big 1:10 etruggy Hard pack dry dirt track.

Videos like this are what really got me hooked when I first started getting into the hobby! 👍 Easy to understand, complete break down of what is needed, and nothing but love for the community! Mark, sir, you are man! You put out all the facts so folks like me, and other new people, can understand everything! Keep up the amazing work! Can't wait to hang out again soon, hopefully I'll be racing next time!

@beng.6417 Год назад

My biggest issue when I raced was my inability to keep up with the Jonses due to lack of funding lol. Ended up quitting and selling off all my cars and equipment. Fast forward 22 years and my 13 year old son was bit by the bug a few years ago and still going strong. I now live vicariously through my son and with much better financial support. Who knows, I may get back into it.......

Excellent video Mark. There's not too many on your level that remember the newbies.

💯 👍 Mark is literally the first person on RU-vid I saw when I started. He's just as amazing in person as he is on video. Humble, genuine and I can honestly call him a friend. If you go back and watch a handful of his past Live Streams, you can get an even better understanding of his tips and info. Welcome to the family!

Great video, I’m so thankful to have 6 tracks (4 outdoor 1/8 tracks, 2 1/10 carpet tracks) within a hour and a half from my house. I wouldn’t have learned all I have if it wasn’t for my local RC shops! Definitely swing by yours and pick up and car!

Nice, I just got back into RC and I didn't realize how much I missed it. Missed it so much I got 4 RC 's yesterday, spent a grip but worth every dime I spent, I've been doing runs like days of thunder💯😂🔥 but seriously days of thunder, love RC.

AWesome video, have had my ET410 2.0 up n running for a few months now and I'm so stoked on it. Handles like a dream and I'm glad a dropped a little money early and am growing into this thing. Gonna hunt down a video that Im sure youve done on set up and steal some pointers. Cheers buddy.

@prostreetcamaro Год назад

Great video. Picked up two ET410.2 truggy's for my 8yr old son and myself to do a little indoor dirt racing. He's been on the trigger since he was 3 and goes balls to the wall with his 8s xmaxx, sledge, etc etc etc. Now he gets to learn real control lol. Have to give him credit, he is damn good with back flips, front flips and landing good. Good control there. Luckily for us I have known the hobby shop track owner for many many years. She told me what to get. Said to start out in sportsman class first and then go from there.

@UnrivaledPiercer 4 месяца назад

I noticed that transponders seemed to have been overlooked in the whole "how much to start" conversation. A lot of tracks don't have transponders for loan that I have ever been to. So you would either have to find another racer who had an extra transponder you could borrow, which can a lot of the time be a pain if it's been registered at the track or online. Or you have to buy a transponder for yourself, which most tracks run MyLaps and those transponders tend to run in the range of 80 used to 125-130 new at the track. So that's definitely an added expense.

@bluegroovemodelsports9650 Год назад

Great start up racing information for the newcomers

@juanpablosaenz7719 Год назад

Anyone looking to get into racing I want to add a couple things: 1. Totally agree on getting a good radio. Sanwa MT5 or Futaba T4PM. It is a lot of money but they hold their value so well and most importantly they truly help you feel more in tune with the car. 2. See if you can find a used race kit from someone local if you’re starting out. Best place to look is at the track on a race day. When I first got into 8th scale I got a 1 generation old ebuggy completely ready to go for $550. 8th scale isn’t quite as daunting as it may seem

@michaeldorich4485 Год назад

I enjoyed the video and I think it's very helpful. I am sure it will help a lot of people. For beginners the Slash is always a good choice. It's also a truck that the new driver can take home and run on almost any surface. At the off road tracks in our area 17.5 2WD drive buggy is always the biggest class. In some areas they're now running 21.5 2wd buggy. Even in the parking lot races there are people of all ages running the 2WD buggy class. They are easier to work on than 4WD buggies in my opinion. I think you can go to most off road tracks in the country and find a 2WD buggy class. It was a great idea to do this video.

@ZacharyGalloway Год назад

Just got back into it a couple weeks ago. Had local shop/ indoor outdoor track back in 2014 I had a few slash’s, sc10’s and RC8.2E. Shop closed only a few months into it so I ended up selling it all shortly after. Played some VRC pro and decided to look online to find the old shop owner started a new shop around 2018 In Large shopping mall only 5 minutes from me. Went in and got a SC10 pro4 to start and a few days ago I went in wanting an Associated but ended up with a 2WD TLR 22 5.0 roller kit and everything to finish it. Really wanted 1/8th scale and a trigger but clay track is 10th scale and nowhere other tracks around. So I’m going to start with 10th scale local and build a Truggy and 1/8th scale in future.

@cpg8000 Год назад

Would love to have an indoor track like this near me in GA. Love 1/10 scale the most. Don’t love the packed clay surface- wish it were loose dirt like the good old days. Hope the hobby widens a bit. The early 90’s was a phenomenal time to race.

@mech0p Год назад

most racing sports have died out since then except real racing which is slowly growing again. But i used to do slot car racing in the early 2000s and went to look at getting back into it and the sport is virtually dead here in america as it does seem rc has taken it over.

Mark Santa Maria may need to do a vlog on buying used items. what to look for, what to avoid, and how to find the fair price for an item( mainly so they will know its market value and not get robbed). and to let folks know to do research on what kits and parts are still out there for older kits..

In terms of RTRs to play around with I LOVE the losi DBpro on clay tracks. Unfortunately my track only races slash’s for 10th scale but man, for just messin around the DBpro handles so much better than any other 10th scale I’ve driven. Like a mosquito on water if you get a better servo 5:00 MARK, YA MESSED UP IN A BIG WAY BUD! 🤣🤣 Not your fault though you were busy

@lcpeterbilt379 Год назад

2wd buggy will teach you to drive too. and ask about tires most drivers will tell you or make a suggestion. and if you consider buying a used vehicle, make sure it is still supported or parts are available. that really fancy Yokomo buggy isnt so nice when you cant find parts for that model anymore.. they may have yokomo parts but not parts for a 5ryr old buggy.

@stonedwookie9916 7 месяцев назад

im just getting into rc's and my biggest question is the frequencies and how you change it? my remotes dont have this function im guessing i need to approach the higher dollar range before this becomes an option? or can you change any old transmitter and reciever ?? i got 2 toprace construction vehicles both at same frequency. was hoping to use both at same time :( is there any damage to the transmitter or reciever when running 2 at the same time? i was using both and all of a sudden the truck slammed into reverse and started operating the arm without any input from the transmitter. even when the transmitter is off the truck just goes ape shit. tried charging battery to full, no reset on my transmitter... so many questions i have lol

@marcushennings9513 3 месяца назад

I'd incorporate both a speedway and a crawler section into one course with certain obstacles and feats for extra points. The racers would get the best of 3 in of their timed run, which has to be recorded and witnessed by a race official, aka me. With this timed point system way, racers can run the track/course at their convenience and still qualify for any prizes.
