It's sad that one of the insect cars didn't have a driver named Buzz.

This week-end was busy. Yesterday I build a gaming computer for my son instead of working on my cars, and today there was another vintage event at about one hour and half drive from home... I was there at 9 this morning with my son to set the my stand... https://i.imgur.com/t4UQTY1.jpeg https://i.im...

I finished filling my top shelf collection... I think I'm going to need a longer shelf

So after much annoyance with manufactures not posting the specs for their wheels I'm starting to populate a list of wheels and their specs myself. Measuring the outside width, and backspacing from the mounting surface to the rear of the wheel along with putting part numbers and links if applicable. ...

Well... I apprehensively made an ebay purchase from a seller in Taiwan and I am happy to report that it went well. I feel I paid a good price but didn't see the part about possibility of import duties and such until after I had made the purchase, needless to say I have been waiting for extra charges...

My Father's Day gift to myself.

when life gives you a screwdriver slip, open a window. Or something like that.

Got a body painted for the Slash puller, and of course had to name it.

Winner winner chicken dinner came in the post today.

Picked up the remnants of a Traxxas Stampede, cheap. I figured that if the esc or Cirrus servo worked, it was worth it. Both worked, the esc just had a bad switch. 20240624_175406.jpg Also got a couple servo lots. The Shredders were one package and everything else was another. 20240624_175809.jpg

OK OK even I got caught up in the last MIP "announcement". Should have known. So, lets do it again. The Ten4 was good, but the parts are just all out of date. The B44 front axles especially. Materials have vastly improved. Ideas have improved. Announcing the Ten4.1 I started by completely ...

Yup, definitely has a b2/b3 vibe with the sides cut down. I made a little late night progress with getting the chassis drilled and nose plate mounted, I decided to mount it about an 1/8" forward from where the normal buggy length mounting holes would be, then shortened and drilled a pair of nos...

OK OK even I got caught up in the last MIP "announcement". Should have known. .... Unlike Mr. Moore, Jeff won't hype us up and then put out a quick release screwdriver handle instead of this kit.... I knew there would eventually be a place to put this..... CB1_SP1C.jpg Great project, GoMa...
