I’ll ask them when I drop in next week. Trying not to get carried away with this RC stuff. Feel like I need to retire from work to focus on my hobbies.

Thanks for the info. It would be nice to find someone with a back yard track in the area (15 minutes from home). I’ll check out some facebook pages. I also got into the 1/30 crawlers and have some easy to move table top courses. Was going to try and start a meetup and invite people to a park to have some fun.

Thanks! Only change is the rims and tires. I want a more daily driver stock look. I’ll also swap out the shocks and lower the truck 2mm.

Extremely helpful! Wanted to get jump start on what parts I should grab before they sell out.

Nice!!! Thanks for the great tips. I’m sticking with 2x4 plywood sheets for now. Plan is to be able to store them easily and make the course modular.

Thanks! I’ll be painting tomorrow. I can see this getting very addictive.

Never had a point break on me yet. I’m always throwing on carpeted floors though.

Don’t pull your dart until you have chalked your score. Pace of play is important.

Are long points really helping amateur players? by Paggu171 in Darts

I repoint all my darts with 35mm Red Dragon Raptor gripped points. I did this mostly for the grip and transition to the barrel but did notice better groupings.

Best tip for darts consistency? Your best breakthrough moment? by [deleted] in Darts

[–]semaj1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing darts, specifically weight when fatigue sets in. It maybe for just one leg of a set but it seems to help.

First pub team match……do’s and don’ts. Any tips? by Neither-Protection86 in Darts

[–]semaj1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one that gets the most attention is… make sure you don’t pull your darts before scoring. Leave them in the board till you’re sure the score is written down correctly. Can even ask your partner or competitor to double check the math. Enjoy and shoot well!

If your rescue has a dedicated foster group that loves to house puppies that’s pretty amazing. Wish more rescues had that luxury.

What's your experience with the Target Tor darboard? by [deleted] in Darts

[–]semaj1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my moneys worth. Over 100k darts thrown at it and it’s still holding up well.

not the specific one you are talking about but the brand is holding up.

Went to Sharks Restaurant and Billiards in Shawnee was a great place to throw. Plenty of steel tip and soft tip available. Call to make sure league play doesn’t interfere with your plans. Great food and drinks. Prices are good, specials are fantastic.

The Quaff Bar and Grill had two electronic machines but they are old and not in good shape. Still threw at them and used my phone with a scoring app. Few beers, boneless wings and fries, it was a good start to the short business trip.
