      Well... there you go... already you are using words like "preaching" and such... Are you SURE that's what's been happening? Or have people simply been stating what, from their experience, has worked in the past to get the job done?? By translating someone simply providing a workable and tested setup as "preaching high-end", you're already caught up in the rhetoric of those whose posts tend to try to undermine the foundation of FE and fragment our already small community...

      These forums, while being excellent ways to gather and find information, are TERRIBLE places to try to COMMUNICATE. If these same converstations were taking place in person, these issues would NOT arrise...

      People need to keep that in mind when reading/writing this stuff...

      I'm not sure what more can be said on this point, so I'll retreat back to my garage and save my posting time for providing whatever information I may have that could be useful to others in this hobby...

                Good. BE GONE SATAN!!!! Go back to your cauldron of doom and dance with the Harpies from Neu and 40C lipos!!!

                See, it is true, the Devil, once recognized and called out for what he is will retreat in shame. But rest assured he WILL return in another form ready to steal the souls of the unwitting and reign Dominion over the unsuspecting.

                Be vigilant my friends, be vigilant.

                BTW - I will have a couple of extra 1527/1.5Y motors fresh back from a rebuild at Neu that I will be looking to sell fairly soon, so keep an eye out for that!! That is for those that have fallen under Satan's spell and succumb to the Siren's song of power unleashed!!

                    That's the really amusing part, you think I'm kidding!!

                    BTW - back on topic, people need to realize that on the Net it is hard to type nice. So much communication is done with expressions and body language that when we are deprived of that, such as we are on the Internet, it becomes easy to misconstrue the meaning of a post.

                    I try to give people the benefit of the doubt on the Net because, as I said, it is hard to "type nice".

                    Now Darin still dresses funny, so don't think I am going all soft.

                        Sorry I'm late here, I was in the basement building Hydros for the "Shoot Out".

                        Seven boats to build for this race, 16 hrs. travel approx.$400.00 in gas, another $200.00 for a room. I'll be in the pits charging batteries and servicing boats in between heats. I won't even get a boat wet myself. Why??? To promote Fast Electric racing and shoot the breeze (share ideas) with some of our IC counterparts.

                        Maybe you can understand why I have a problem with the poison that gets spewed here from time to time.

                        For the record, I don't look down on anyone for what they run and I have as many Fiegaos as I do Neus.
                        I do more writing in PMs than I do in open forum, when I can help, I do.
