Tamiya Super Fighter G

I did the first test drive today after implementing the hot-ups to the Tamiya Super Fighter G. It was definitely worth the money. The oil shocks give a very good performance and the ball bearings not only make the car fast, the battery even lasts longer due to less friction. Maybe I’ll try the 19T gear later on to increase the top speed a little bit.

HOT UPS

So I’m about to finish the Tamiya Super Fighter G hot ups. In detail these are: Replacing the standard motor by the Carlson Fighter machine, replacing the standard shocks by oil shocks, replacing the standard bearings by ball-bearings.
I think this will significantly increase the performance. I’ll start the first test run at the weekend and give the results.

ANTICIPATION

In 2 weeks a friend and myself will go out again, we’ll go for our next outdoor weekend. It is meant for testing our equipment to be prepared for the planned trip to JOTUNHEIMEN / Norway next year [find map below].

Because one has to expect cold temperatures, wind and rain also during the summer period, good equipment is mandatory. Furthermore we have to learn how much food we’ll need.
The planned highlight of the tour will be the ascent to the 2,465m high GLITTERTIND. So it’s true, there is definitely some pleasant anticipation.
So that's the reason why I watched the film of our last weekend trip:

ANOTHER RIDE

I tested the action cam down at the chain stay today, which gave some good scenes. I just added them to my FORMER MOVIE as you can see below.

OUTDOOR TEST

We are on our way to Norway – virtually. So we decided to go for another outdoor test this year to have a significant testing of our equipment. We settled the date for mid of October, at that time it already could be very cold. That’s what we need to see if the equipment is the right one. And by doing that we’ll dream on of our way to GLITTERTIND.

Wir sind auf dem Weg nach Norwegen – so gut wie. Wir haben uns entschieden, noch in diesem Jahr einen weiteren Outdoor Test zu starten. Der Termin ist Mitte Oktober, zu der Zeit kann es schon ziemlich kalt sein. Das ist’s was wir brauchen, um zu sehen ob die Ausrüstung die Richtige ist. Und während wir das tun, träumen wir weiter vom Weg zum GLITTERTIND.
