Work ethic and pride in work?

Is it just me or does this seem like a thing of the past? Most people these days seem to just not give a crap....

I dug out my Sassy Chassis RC10 and swapped some stuff around. I swapped out the wide front arms from some short ones and used wide CRP axles. For some reason, it just felt right. (the Tamiya shocks are also a better fit with short arms) I also swapped the rear arms and carriers for some that matche...

Yes, I just became one of those dudes that posts a group shot of 75% of his shelfer projects. Just because. Cry for help maybe?

Got 2nd in qualifying in first heat, and then proceeded to win the main! Pretty happy with a car t...

Not all today, but cleaned up a RC10 parts lot from Ebay. When I got them, they were extremely grimy. Soaked them in hot water and Purple Power for a couple hours, stirring and shaking.
