So in order to make these start we had to use
a starter Box
![[Image: IMG_0160.jpg]](http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m330/Rabster_2008/Outlaw%20RCC/IMG_0160.jpg)
Radio Gear
![[Image: IMG_0163.jpg]](http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m330/Rabster_2008/Outlaw%20RCC/IMG_0163.jpg)
Glow Starter
![[Image: IMG_0161.jpg]](http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m330/Rabster_2008/Outlaw%20RCC/IMG_0161.jpg)
we found that they all had umm expired fuel in them and that the fuel had congield in the pipes and parts of the engine Pete spent the best part of an hour getting fresh fuel through the system before we could even attempt at starting......
we also found that some of the Glow plugs had seen better days luckily i have spare so we changed those and voila we were running we got all except the truggy working properly how ever this did mean i had to get some more spare bits
Batteries mainly as they had been allowed to discharge fully so wouldnt hold a full charge for long.....
Next on the line up Jamara Cyclone
Now the big beast Losi Aftershock

Looking good Andrew

oh yes mate these are the real deal and bloomin fast, there is one i haven't listed which belongs pete and its one of the quickest here, although i have now found a new engine that will drop into one of them that has a boost chamber woohooo
How many do you have???
The worst part of it is that it's been so long i cant remember how to tune the carburettors properly. I will have to spend some time playing to get the most power from them
Andy has 3 1/8th buggies, plus the large truggy. I have 1 1/8th buggy, but its pretty fast, although Andy's hyper 8.5 seemed pretty quick up and down the road. I think we will have to have a drag race!

You will get there Peter after all I have a spare engine to practice tuning on if it goes bang oh we'll lol
I think in total about 18 rc vehicles lol some of them are vintage racers I'm told now so may well sell them to collectors....
