Usually, a contraction is made up of the first word and the second word with the apostrophe. The following are common contraction endings--n’t--not, ‘s--is, ‘m--am, ‘ve--have, ‘ll--will, ‘re--are Common contractions include I’m (I am), he’s (he is), aren’t (are not), they’ll (they will), we’ve (we have), you’re (you are), can’t (can not), isn’t (is not), etc. Two other common contractions which don’t follow the rules above are won’t (will not) and let’s (let us)..

ahem, on with the show.

she's finished! i figured i'd better get the "fresh outta the shop" pics while i can, you know where this bitch's going

there will be some more tweaking no doubt as i drive it around but initial impressions are excellent! way too much torque and speed

using the futaba 3pk with it is just brilliant, end points set, abs brakes, steering expo tweaked, etc!

anyway have a looksee at her all pretty and unharmed while you can!

old school meets nue skool

Old school better meet new school in a video!

We just have to see at least a few video's of this bitch in action, I want to see it getting thrashed too!

betty.k style!

That's friggin' awesome betty. I hate to be the nit picky one, but I'd really like to see that back of the body raised up another mm or two. Then it would be absolutely perfect.

yeah, there's a few areas i'd like to look at still, i think the wheel base should be lengthened to fill the wheel arches better for a start.
i just figured the body's about to get scratched up during testing so i better get it flossed now!

holy shit. that looks great

betty.k · Post by **betty.k** » Sun Oct 08, 2006 4:52 am

thanks to everyone for the kind words, i been lapping them up like drugs!

so i did some further mods. as mentioned i wasn't happy with the wheelbase so i gave it a stretch and moved the body further back. i took dave's advice and raised the rear a little too

it's running a tomy 2.6 motor so the speed isn't crazy fast but definately not slow either!
i'll have some video up soon of it in action

Perfect betty

Seriously, that really finished it up, I noticed the points that you have improved the first time round, but I didn't want to say because I kinda' figured it would be a downer on all that awsome shit you have done. Get what I mean ?

Anyway, I'm just gagging for it now! - A video that is

crazydave · Post by **crazydave** » Sun Oct 08, 2006 7:59 am

Now that looks perfect!

Thanks for taking my advice. Funny I didn'y notice the wheel base until you mentioned it, but now its all lined up nicely, and the longer wheelbase should give you a bit more stability.

It always exciting when betty builds a new car, because you know a vid is soon to follow, and it usually goes something like, RC car, meet the sidewalk.

don't ever be shy about offering criticism honda, often other people spot things that i don't

like dave, i personally didn't notice that the rear was low until i raised it.
he did me a service

i shot some vid, just waiting to get the footage offa ph2t then i'll edit and post it. there's no gutter smacking sorry, just a demo of the speed and propo.
