you are in this sport.
A-Arm- The Thing that always snaps when you are in first.
Body- The thing that sits on top of you car and always cracks when the
little foam pads (That stop it from cracking)are in the mail to your house.
Battery- See Dump
Commutator- The thing that gets dent in it to slow the motor down. To
punish it you cut it round again.
Comm. Drops- The costly things that come in a little bottle that you put on
your commutator for a 2 second power increase. They always collect dirt.
Crap- A word that runs through the pits even though there is no real crap
to be found. Unless you live on a farm.
Crystal- The little clip that you put in your transmitter and in your
reciever. They break easily and when one breaks you can never find 2 of
the same kind.
Dammit- A word that is heard all over the pits. It is usualy said when
someone checks to see if the soldering iron is hot yet.
Differential- The thing that looks like a gear and makes the wheels spin
different ways when you spin it but your motor can make them spin the same
way. (It's VooDoo)
Dump- What your batteries do when you are in first in a race on the last
lap and everyone passes you. Then you remember that that was the pack
that you "didn't have time" to discharge before you watched TV so you
just fast charged it.
Everything- What goes wrong.
ESC- The small box that is filled with smoke and tells your motor to go.
Sometimes the smoke gets out and it won't work anymore. This is also
(voodoo)

same as you and likes to turn his wheels back and forth when you are racing.
Glitch- The word you yell when you run into someone.
God- See Dammit
Hell- The place that the front of your car went to when you hit that wall at
full speed.

and the corner guy who didn't hear you yell and didn't see your car.

Motor- The can in your car that makes the wheels move and is never as fast
as that guy infront of you.

can't tell what color it was or even get your allen wrench into the screws
because they are all full of dirt.

Practice- The time that you spend to break your car when you are not racing.
Qualifiers- The time when you do good. Then you do bad for the rest of the
time.
Rattle- What your ESC becomes when you get mad and throw it. (I don't
recomend that you make any rattles on purpose).

Stop- The thing that you can never do untill you hit something.
Time- You will never own this but people can use it against you.
Toe-in- How many toes are in our car.
Transmitter- The thing that has a mind of it's own. It contols the car but
does what you say sometimes to let you think you are in control.
