New Dyna Storm Parts, improved design and materials Options

[Origineelreclame...]

I broke more than one D on my Dyna but only the original ones, they can barely resist a practice afternoon at the track if the car is run strong. I noticed that the probem is due by the fact that they loosen and take some play shortly after they broke...... If you keep them very firm the problem is a lot less evident.
I have good result with Nimrod D V2 with a good treadlock they seems to resist the race track abuse.

That's what I mean They only break if they loosen - and loosen they indeed often did from what I heard - I never had the problem in the 3 runs (without jumping) that my Dyna made before I got the Nimrod blocks - mine don't use threadlock and seem to keep themselved tightened well.

By the way, how are the parts performing that I sent you? Happy with your front shock towers?

Parts are great and makes a nice spare parts supply for races.....
At the moment my Dyna is on the work bench and i'm working on it for the National Championship that will take place June 6th.

Working also on front shock towers but they will be ready after.

ORC has lots of rear D parts from me now, he should be able to help you. How did it break? The d part used to loosen rather than break.

i went to TAmark's track at kumbia on the weekend and was running the dyna with an 8.5 ezrun, wasnt doing anything silly, and nothing came loose at all, basically i went over a jump and it landed wrong and cartwheeled, the LHR D part broke between the rear nut mounting point and the part that the hinge pin passes through, the rear arm now swivels forward on the front mounting point. this was exactly where my original D parts broke.. my nimrod parts were from the first few runs i think.

so yeah basically i need a replacement, and when i get it i'll be making some sort of brace for the rear hinge pins running across the back of the car, similar to whats at the front of the rear arm hinge pins..

I've just had a look for you: All the spare ones of one side I have are actually the left ones. Adduming you mean Left Hand Rear with LHR, I think I could supply you with one. Could you send a picture of the ones you currently have, as I have several versions (one threaded one, the rest is for nuts - not press nuts by the way - and these might be made from different material composites (the one shows the fibre reinforcement more clearly than the other)

PM me if you're interested, I'll make sure the total price with postage will be cheap You just got to get your Dyna running again!

yep sweet as, yes nut type and left hand rear, i'll send you a pm when i shoot a pic

Well fantastic!!! Well done on being a competitor and entering your Dyna!


Your wheels are really unique. Looks like you were running a big motor judging by the photos of your ballooning spinning tires. Did you have fun?

And who/what is crazy club?


More details!!

That's accomplished with gearing rather than power...

Hi,
the Dyna took part at the Italian Championship, and i've been able to enter the last main........ already a success considering my skill and the poor old Dyna! The car had no big issues and resisted at practice sessions (saturday) + 5 qualifies and 3 mains.
The car was very fast and stable with still some problems of understeer that improved a lot after some weight on front (30gr), probably 10 more can make it better on hard packed slippery tracks (italian Style). Considering the track style it was a good compromise, since it was half hard packed and half on "syntetic grass" were the car has a lot of traction.

Car configuration was:

- Asso truck front & rear shocks
- Novak 8.5SS with GTB esc
- Savox low profile Steering Servo
- Losi Big Shot red tyres (rear)
- Losi rib tyres silver (front)
- Nimrod B parts F&R (rears had some problems but resisted....), Nimrod D parts, Tamiya TR-15T H, C, D5, steering system and rear shocks tower stay.

Here below one of the A main so that you can see the track:

For Singapore: Crazy Club is the event organizer and the club the own the track, very supportive and nice persons that did a fantastic job on the track.

Next race june 27 (a simple club race...).

You are a Dyna Hero.

That's a way to have FUN! without spending a fortune on this weeks latest fad charger, model, etc. COOL.


Thanks for posting up!

I'm currently restoring my Dyna Lightning, and I need a few parts... I haven't had email response from Nimrod Racing yet, so I was wondering if someone might have the following parts as spare (new or lightly used/lightly scratched):

- Carbon Plate Rear Shock Tower.
- E4/Front Bumper (Preferably V3, but anything considered).
- B2 Dyna Lightning Parts (These are the Dyna Storm width Front Arms with copper threads and slightly different shape than original).
- A1+2 Parts (Gearbox halves)
- Carbon Blade Rear Wheels
- D5/Front Suspension Block V3 version (Copper threads for screws)

I am also looking for several Mainshafts for the Dyna Storm.

PS: I thought that posting it here would make more sense than the Wanted section in the forum as I think these parts are not really widely sold...

Edit: I finally got in phone contact with Nimrod Racing. This means I may be able to arrange something to get communication back online. They told me that many free email-providers are automatically marked as spam mail by their office, they can't do much about it... So - if I get communication back, even if communication would have to go through me, I'll let you guys know about it.

Edit 2: Update on the Dyna Lightning of mine... I replaced the rear DT02 uprights for TA04 Hard/Reinforced Rear Uprights. These in combination with 2mm shortened DB01 Rear Universal Shafts give it a width of approximately 245mm - nicely within the IFMAR regulations
