Carmelo is doin good he stays in the game 👍
Those nitro's are bullets!!!
Great vid
🔥🔥 great video!
I want one of those IMDRA shirts. They are "Nice".
Contact Ron Hicks on Facebook
Nice and gettin him started early 👌🏾
Great footage, hopefully i will see u out there next year
good work out there
Mel, when will you build a 1/8 scale dragster? They look awesome!
@davidstith9297 if you mean 1/4 scale, then I want to but I can't start over right now. It would be too distracting and time-consuming. They are definitely the hot class to be in.
@@melcapone54, yes. 1/4 scale. They do look cool and look a little bit easier to get down the track.
Congratulation Carmelo on winning the race for more importantly, being baptized, God bless you.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽Butchie.
Great video bro. I know Carmelo is ready🏁🏁
Is their a rule of thumb on which way the Notch in the Piston Sleeve faces?
Good stuff brother man!
Wish we had this track in ny
@dadon197922 search Rita's RC Hideout on Facebook and maybe on RUclips. facebook.com/groups/359283756900717/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT
where you get those foams and what is called?? need to make some home made foam tires for a 1/8 project
@omarbalanzar8034 I have wasted over 500 bucks searching for the right foam. I have not found the right combination. I use to get all of my foam from Mike Smith Racing but I am not sure if he still sell foam or not. You might reach out to TM Racing Tires or find Mike Smith on the IMDRA facebook forum. Good luck.
Good message..I agree 💯
Big Ups to you Melvin!! I’m with you 100% of the way bro, you speak nothing but the truth! Keep building the message and the RUclips channel
You speak the truth, Mel. They might be out of your everyday life, but that doesn't mean that you don't still care about their wellbeing. I got your heartfelt message clearly.
what the best 1/5 scale car to start off with now for drag racing.
@nickcervantes2159 to be honest, I am not really familiar with 1/5 scale. Contact Lance from Crucial RC for the best unbiased opinion. youtube.com/@crucialrc?si=nwrgBvat0Jgn1pVI
@@melcapone54 thanks for reply.
another great video, thank you for the kind words
who is that at 5:18, is he on Facebook, and what's his setup compared to the other 1/4 scale guys? I'm mainly a 1/10 foam guy but that violence could pursued me to get a 1/4 scale!
@hoodrichallstar that is Kiki Tamasar and he is on fb. He runs foam tires and Floyd Vick chassis. Floyd Vick is on facebook also.
That's wassup! Great video and Carmelo did awesome!
@CrucialRC much appreciated!
Carmelo getting it Melvin I know you proud of him!!
Yes Sir. We are having fun. I am learning right along side of him. We are definitely proud of him. One day the goal will be for me to crew chief my nitro funny car and he will be the driver.
@melcapone54 yes sir 🙌 👏 🙏
Melvin I want you to know I appreciate this video of you and your son. You teaching him the right way to race. It brings back old memories when we first met in North Carolina me Kevin and big Wil bring our kids down to North Carolina Racing. I thank you very much for this video it brought back old Great memories keep up the great work you & your so are doing.., love you, brother Butchie..
@@movingup41 thanks for the kind words and inspiration my friend. Take care Butchie and bless you Sir.
Love those priceless moments, father and son!
A beautiful moment rc-ing!
GREAT DEMO! I really learned a lot!
They don't sell for Baja drag racing 1/5
@luisarvelo253 visit facebook and go to the IMDRA page and reach out to Floyd Vick Chassis. He should be able to help.
Some serious work there 🤜🇦🇺
Let’s go racing
Some pretty fast little hot rods there
Kool
Awesome
Nice work
Actually, looks like a lot of fun
Thanks for the info!! Im looking for a 9mm throughput bore carburetor. Particularly a Novarossi or Nova engines one. Are there any available? How about OS- which ones are 9mm? Its for speed runs.
@wendymorandelatorre5720 maybe check ebay. I am not sure where to get one, sorry.
Very well explained
Bruh, blewed up? Blown? Blew? You on another level, good work on straighting them out. Lol. Squaring the circle.
Awesome job bro thanks 🙏 for sharing great information 🤜💯💥🇦🇺🔥
Ty
I'm must be missing it, how is the ring gear mounted on the axle? New subscriber, loving your content
The steel teeth portion of the gear is glued to the aluminum hub with JB Weld. The aluminum hub slips over the axle and set screwed to a flat spot on the axle. Hope this is clear.
Thank you, Sir! I'm having a hard time getting the 7 Blade Trailer Plug to go in. I have to work at it 15 minutes or more! I may try this. First, however, I want to check my truck's receptacle since the plug came with the new trailer, so it should be good.
Good luck
I applied some dielectric grease to the plug and it went in much better! Thanks to U-Haul for suggestion!
Nice!
You say 1186 or 1126?
It has been so long since I bought these so I am not sure of the part number. It is the one with the long middle section (belly).
Thumbs 👍 up straight away bro well done looking awesome never seen before definitely great for reflex 🤜💯🇦🇺 keep up the good work bro
The hobby today we all share and hope to grow it for other people. Give us those numbers man. It ain’t gonna hurt nobody Only make others nitro drag experience better. 👊😎
I found me a place to test. I wasted parts, money, and time away from family and friends to find those numbers while someone else was eating potato chips and watching TV. No thanks.
@@melcapone54 Awwee that’s to bad you feel that way dude. We aren’t all trolls and freeloaders bud Some of us do just the opposite and will give the shirt off our backs at the drop of a hat. It’s all good bro just do what makes you happy I have been doing my best for years and years now working to help other people learn the tricks and tips to help them make a great hobby experience. One day you just might start doing it to 👊☺️
Great vid for the newbie's.nice work!! 👊
Thank you for the support and encouragement.
Always impressed when I watch your videos .great info. I drag race but not nitro so I need this because I'm going to sell my modded dr10 and get a nitro no prep car because I'm running nitro mostly anyways..put me down for a pipe once u start crankin them out💪🏿
Thanks for watching and the encouragement
I have a stuck piston in my Jato 3.3 any suggestions.
First off it is probably your fuel that has gummed up inside the engine. I would try heating the block up and try to stick something through the exhaust port that wouldn't melt fast but wouldn't damage the piston and sleeve while rotating the flywheel. I would wear heavy-duty welding gloves. They also make sleeve removal tools but I have never used one. I have heard of people soaking the block in wd 40 but I wouldn't let it come in contact with orings or the silicone. WD 40 will attack certain rubber and silicone.
