Can you point me in the direction for either a fix of my battery problem, or siggest a new brand to buy? My thread is about the Reedy 5100's.

Hey man. I stumbled across this website tonite while looking for some info on the roar nats going on. I used to race back in the day, started in 89 and raced until 99. Looking to get back into it soon. I saw that you live in Temecula, i'm in Murrieta. Let me ask you a couple of questions, where do you go race now? Back when I was racing it was MnM in corona (raced all 3 locations they had), Break-a-Way in Norco, or even the Ranch. I never really hit SoCal when it was open. Now that all these great places are no more, where do you do your club racing?

My next question is regarding the ride. When I started racing, it was a Gold Tub Rc10 then graduated to the jrxPro and a jrxT and made my way thru the entire losi lineup all the way to the xx-cr / xx-4 / xx-t. I've been doing a bit of research on all the new cars out and have pretty much ruled out anything losi, they are hard to get parts for and it seem like they haven't won anything in a while. The car that really catches my eye is the RB5. Seems like a solid car and it does well at the big races, so where locally can I get parts for it? That Lazer zx-5 looks pretty solid too.

I'm still catching up on all the brushless motor and Lipo battery nomenclature, but that all looks badass too. Longer run times and more power, how can you go wrong.

Thanks for your time and checking this out
