It's an Optima Turbo.

You could also take the bottom out of the battery cup to drop the pack a bit. I thought about this a couple of times, but in my head, my thought was "well I don't want to cut a pristine battery tray." But then remembered that this is a modern, easily replaceable tray. :D I do sometimes th...

I was drunk when i saw it! And at 4:39 in the afternoon :mrgreen: My kind of afternoon. I generally start at 2pm everyday, some times sooner I am a 3pm'r myself. I remember back in my 20s when it was noon! And I remember looking at the clock at like 11:30, and being like "WTF CLOCK?!?!?" :D

This evening I made just a little change to the bellcrank mounts, and it resulted in fixing probably 75% of my steering radius issue. I honestly thought this part of the fix would have the least result, but it did wonders. I ended up printing new bellcrank nuts/ mounts, but this is not necessary, as...

ME: See, if I buy all of them, then I can keep the one I want and sell off the others for close to, if not more than what I paid for all of them, and I get the one I want. WIFE: You always say that, but you never actually sell any of them. ME: .............................. I have no legit rebuttal ...

Go ahead, use that logic on her, I'm sure it will go well in your favor. :wink: :lol: Ya see, I could go that route, but we have this little agreement where she spends her money on her stuff, and I spend my money on my stuff .................... and I don't want to do anything to jeopardize that li...

Found a deal on a RC150 (Thanks GoMachV and Phin for the ID!!) that I thought was so good, it was worth taking a PTO day and a 6.5 hour total road trip for! :shock: I knew the seller had many other vehicles, but I wasn't sure what else that was up my alley, but walked away with good stuff. The RC150...

I didn't see anything like this on the list.

There isn't much that brings the K9s and Felines together to one spot, but freshly made chocolate chip cookies will do the trick! To clarify: The animals all showed up because of the smells of the cookies ............. not because they were getting cookies. We just happened to notice that all the pe...

Oh, the only animals actually getting cookies are the humans!

After purchasing a few cars over the past couple of weeks, it was time for a trip to my ex-hobby shop owner to see if he had anything for the new cars. He didn't have anywhere near what I was hoping for, but a couple of things. I was hoping he had a couple of original AE 1:8 GTP bodies, and I knew h...

So, I ended up making the deal on the dual engine combo. There is a guy that I trade with often, and he is a plane guy, and he ended up being a member of the site where they were being sold, so going through him, money is off and these should be on their way tomorrow. I ended up with both of these s...

If you need to get the yellow off your vintage plastics, this 12% peroxide cream works incredibly well in direct sunlight, uncovered, and reapplied every 20 minutes to keep it even and wet. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09SVTJKGK Not to take this thread off into a completely weird direction, but I use...

It hit me today that I need to finish this vehicle very soon, or I never will. I started looking at the body, and trimmed and test fitted the stock Turbo Mirage body, and really just didn't like it. It has been stated, and I will agree, the body quality is meh, and I didn't really like how it fit ov...

And you save $198!!!!


Off a price we made up on the fly and was never an actual price at all. Should have made the original price $838, and they could state that it is now half off!!!
