Hey tiny read this

[93civicdx]

I just wanted to know if you are going to stock any auldey hop-ups are the cars. If so carmo world is looking for a reseller.

[tinyrc]

93civicdx, we're working on it, and have emailed carmoworld! :)

[jerm781]

good luck I emailed them atleast 20 times with 3 diffrent email address and never got a responce

[MTL]

kool, if you get parts from them, i would love my crap stock auldey even more..:D

please carry the racing chip and suspension parts too..i need those the most!!
also if you get the parts to where you can use a brake and 3rd speed function.that would rock too

that page has some nice mod parts..but too bad they are in asia...

[bigbamboo]

Thanks for the link - that track is great! Love the clear bridge section.
The hop ups on all these asian sites look great, but I always think there
is something lost either in the translation or kph to mph conversion. I hope it
produces as well as it sounds.

yah i know, im an idoiot when it comes to converting kmh to mph..i just estimate..haha
my stock 1:16 can go lets say......at least 5-10 mph...which isnt much..but im NEED a faster motor so i can go "school zone" speeds oh yeah :D 20mph baby yeah

[tinyrc]

Would you guys be interested in doing a group buy for our first order to carmoworld, so we can check out the products and save some money by combining shipping?

[93civicdx]

That seems like a great idea.

[kwikbb]

Yeah I'm interested... but one thing Tiny, what do we need to do so it doesn't turn out like the "Tank Group Buy"? That thing kind of just dissapated. I'm not blaming anything or anyone, I'd just like to see this one through. :)

Thanks

[tinyrc]

Yep; the tank GB fizzled out because we couldn't get a good enough deal on them to make it worth everyone's effort, but the carmoworld is certainly a go, in fact they've even suggested to us that we become their US distributor, so it will go through no matter what! :)

[kwikbb]

Thats great... Tiny comes through again. :)

[Philippe74656]

So when can we expect to see an Auldey Shop at TinyRC?! :D
The whole overseas-carmoworld thing seemed all to complicated. When I saw all of the parts that they had, i was disappointed that we couldn't easily have them, but now...

Bring in them Auldeys! :cool:

[tinyrc]

Yep, an Auldey section at the Shop in the near future is certainly not out of the question! I'd like to get some of these to try, plus some of their other interesting parts (maybe even see if they can make a few custom parts for us in their factory!), so I was thinking if others want to join us in this first purchase, we can save some money together, and once a handful of us have tried the cars we'll have a better idea of which are worth stocking and which parts are good. If interested, just post to this thread with a tentative shopping list, and then we'll take it to the next step once we've got a pool of interested buyers. :)

[kwikbb]

Tiny,
Are selections limited to any specific series for the group buy/trial ie; race tin, mini or win?

Thanks

[MTL]

my must haves:
-new steering cover so that you can use modified steering knuckles with springs
-faster motors. no need to carry every speed...just half the amount. im guessing most people will go with the medium to top speed ones.
-new motor casing for bigger motors.
-rear axles, i belive they sell just the rod by it self....and you just gotta add rims...mine has already lost a couple teeth...and it grinds...and will get worse in the future...
-some kool rim designs..with tires of course...aluminum rims are expensive...but its up to u if u want to carry them.
-possibly some car bodies by itself

well....that maybe it...the other things like...relays,leds, and such can just be bought at radioshack.,

and also...are u going to be carrying the racetin and the race win?
im not sure if i can join in on the group buy...i always have limited budget...heh...but id definitly buy from here once u carry the items

kwikbb - nope - anything they sell is fair game! :)

[cryhavok]

i would buy some upgrade parts like something to improve my steering or a turbo for my race-tin.

I picked it up while in china in a toy shop...got the flying horse model which is basically a skyline gt-r.

also while in the shop i picked up an upgraded motor called the "HERCULES" motor...item no. 202001. added some speed but still pretty slow...i'd like it to go faster

My Want List:

The Nissan Silvia "Diamond" Race-Tin version 2 (Part 2244) $15
A good idea might be bundling cars with some extra parts for a lower price, sort of like the already modded cars on TinRacer.

Wheels - Mesh Aluminum (Part 1661) $5.50
Wheel Modification? That is needed, right?
I think that when it comes to carrying wheels at TinyRC, that we should have some sort of vote as to which ones. Personally, I dont know why anyone wouldn't want aluminum at the price of $5.50

Motor - 62km/h maybe? (Part 1259) $1.90
I believe you need a motor relay mod too.
Someone who knows something about these motors should decide which ones are worth carrying. They all seem so close in speed.

On the CarMoWorld site, that comes to only $22.40! Less than a bit. :D

[93civicdx]

We also need english instructions. And I'd like to see relays,and turbo kits(push button). Thats about it for now.

[MTL]

the premodified cars look pretty weerd with those ugly thick exhausts...looks mounted wrong at tinracers....
