PRO RACER SECRETS:

By: Sirace Services


What exactly are Pro Racer Secrets and why do you need them?? If you are new to R/Cing, or if you are a seasoned racer, these packages of tips and racer secrets for better battery life/performance and electric motor maintenance will help you get the most out of your equipment.

The Pro at Pro Racer Secrets is a very experienced racer. He has been in the hobby since he was 7 yrs. old and has been racing competitively since he was 12 yrs. old. I won’t tell you how old that makes him now, but let’s just say he has a lot of racing time logged in. In fact, when I have an R/C question, The Pro is my main source of information..

The Pro’s commitment to R/Cing doesn’t end when you purchase one or both (or future) of his articles.. He is just an e-mail away and I’ve found his answers to my questions to be quick and informative.

These Pro Racer Secrets reveal secrets employed by top ranking Sponsored Racing Teams for years.. They have been passed down through the generations of racers and have only improved over time.

They will show you why Team Racers can beat other R/C Racers with identical equipment on a consistent basis. And what you can do to have your R/C ride perform just as well.

There are no specific R/C manufacturer influences in these articles.. In other words, you don’t have the Pro reviewing a Kyosho manufactured part/hop-up item while being supported financially by Kyosho advertisements.. (Nothing wrong with Kyosho - just an example). The Pro is paid by you and I to provide us with racing information gathered from his many years of experience.... Period!!


Battery Maintenance Tips

How to; Charge/Discharge/Store Batteries

This is a great package if you are new to R/Cing and a great refresher to keep on hand if your are a veteran.. There are also some things in this package that will help out the latter..

Step by step instructions are outlined to help you maintain the life and efficiency of your batteries. It is very well written and I use it as a quick reference myself.. It covers four major reasons for your batteries not performing at 100% and gives you the knowledge to change that.. If you follow these tips to the letter and you weren’t doing it correctly before you can increase your battery’s performance by 50%.


Electric Motor Speed Tips

How To; Increase Run-Time, Power & Speed..

The contents of this article are geared (excuse the pun??) towards the more experienced racer... If you don’t already have a bit of knowledge on general motor maintenance and the glossary of terms associated with it, I would suggest you first do some R/C Rag reading to familiarize yourself with these things.. Other than that, these tips for motor improvements can be applied by everyone and useful to everyone.. These tips have been used by racers for years to take a few extra tenths off per lap.. That may not sound like much to those of us who are still trying to just keep it between the lines but that is the reason that Team Racers can beat their competitors on a consistent basis..

Not all of these tips are just for an extra tenth per lap.. The Pro starts off by suggesting how to choose a motor.. He also covers brush and spring maintenance / aligning brush hoods / brush break-in / commutator sticks and cleaning your motor properly.. As I said before The Pro doesn’t have to worry about corporate advertisements, so doesn’t hesitate to point out the inexpensive way to do things.. As in , “instead of paying ’x’ amount of dollars for that expensive doohicky- just do this” This is another well thought out and well written article that would be a great addition to your R/C ‘hop-ups’


Final Thought ??

Why would I pay my hard earned dollars for these Pro Racer Secrets?? Because I want to provide my R/C Ontario ‘99 visitors with as much information as I can.. I also get to keep the articles for myself , of course..

When something comes across my desk that seems interesting to me or even something that’s questionable to me.. Then I figure it would be a good thing to check out and then pass along that information to my visitors.. Well.. I did. I am pleased with the results too.. I now keep my Pro Racer Secrets stacked along with my numerous copies of three major R/C Rags for easy reference..

How many times have you walked into an R/C (Hobby) Store and been able to purchase something for under $15.00 that will so significantly improve your performance??

As far as dealing over the Internet is concerned.. (It was a concern for me anyway)... The service I received from Pro Racers Secrets was very courteous professional and prompt and I have no problems recommending him as a good “e-mail trader”

So... What’s my final thought??? I think that these articles will make a great addition to an R/Cer’s tool box... They won’t make you win races.. But they will give you the knowledge to win races.. I will leave you with one of the Pro’s Tips...practice, practice, practice..

How Much??
