FZRC (Sarasota)

A young racer was having a problem with his charger. He said it worked just fine last night!!!

Asked if I could have a look. The wires where it entered the plug that plugged into the power converter, (120 to 12) had come loose BUT looked ok. Asked him if the cord was like a computer cord, he said yes. "MRCW" had a extra in case we would had a cord problem. Gave him the cord and said don't want it back as long as he got rid of the old cord.

Didn't want the bad cord to cause future problems for him.

FZRC (Satasota)

A first time racer (Steve) was having gearing problems with ECX Torment SC truck. The part shop at FZ didn't have parts for this truck. So "MRCW" stepped up to do what we could. Fitted a AE 87 tooth spur gear and slipper pads to Steve's SC and he was ready to race!!!

Had a look at his setup and make a couple changes which helped the way it turned, jumped and drove in a straight line!
