I bought myself a Mescalero

The real Christmas gift was the new house, but we get that for New Years

Well, I had one of the original Nissan GTP bodies in my cart on ebay for a few days and put off buying it for whatever reason worried about possible Tude? No. :lol: I just wasn't 100% sold it was what I wanted. It seems a bit oversized. I'd rather have something with a tighter fit honestly... Certa...

I'd be lying if I didn't say that I'm shocked my Hornet didn't win build of the year.... I thought I'd cracked the code!

Thank you so much! I’m really honoured to win this year’s contest with this special tribute build to Gene Husting. It was a very close win though and I want to congratulate all other contenders with their beautiful entries. The idea of a calendar would be fantastic with a part of the proceedings tha...

Congrats David.

I also want to thank everyone that has taken the time to enter a vehicle this year, and to all of those that take time to vote each month.

Look like Mini Mustang wheels to me...

They are! Err....maybe not. Could be for some other crazy project.

1 man, 1 vote. But I'm so dumb I've never voted twice even when there are 2 votes! I always forget and submit one. So either way, nothing changes for me.

TRC radials showed up. I'm very happy with them. They're going to really grip nicely on any decent surface. Tore it down today and did a basic clean up. I'll add a little finesse as things move along. Happy new year to all!

Well that just caps off a crazy 2020.
Thumbs posting a build

Happy New Year

Rc stuff was mainly parts for my lil' 24th scale scx24. Got a rock bouncer chassis, 4mm wide axles kit, mudslinger tires, emax servo, and various brass parts to make it heavier for better crawling. Also got a new set of Rc metric hex drivers. Another thing I got that isn't directly RC related but wi...

yup! late 80's even pushn it

Took this a while ago while in Florida

RD-11 was the entire gear set, RD-22 was just a pair of idlers. Same idlers, just packaged differently. The seller has parted a set to sell them that way, and has thus just assigned his own part numbers. Neither are wrong, but RD-11 should be a whole set and RD-22 should be a pair of idlers.

I know the “right way”, but I don’t have the patience sometimes.

Thanks for the link Brian! Chuck Norris, G.I. Joe, GreenHell, Smoke-Dog... You can see why this poor ol' brain of mine can get confused!
