Re: Old School Rocket Car Build

So the end of run tumbling... it's like you need a ramp at the end and some James Bond style deployable wings. Just sayin'.

Re: Frankenbuggy '91 B1.75 Detroit-ish Worlds Buggy

I popped open a T-4 for this buggy. There was enough soil in that thing to start a garden! 🌽🌾🍅🌻🥔

Re: The original 1987 Winning Kyosho Ultima Machine up close

What is going on with the case on the Tekin? Is it splitting? Or is this just a weird viewing angle? After 2015 restoration it was in good condition. It looks like something did happen to the case. Maybe someone fought the servo tape trying to remove it from the shock tower and damaged it. That dan...

I definitely need more practice and need to figure out a better way to clean up the spray tool between colors (7 colors including backers!), but the paint job turned out better than I anticipated. The mighty mini needed some non hand-me-down clothes. . PX...
