I'm still trying to decide what car(s) to run in Silvercan this Sunday. Only have 2 heats and a main so probably only going to run 2 of the cars, alternate during the heat and choose which one I feel like after. Leaning towards the Ultima and the JRX-Pro. Might bring the Scorpion for a buddy to run....

Well, I spent another week mostly in a hotel, and the USPS and US Customs have delayed my builds another week, so time to dig out a build for the weekend. It is supposed to rain through Saturday night, so great time to build. I thought about the potentials the whole trip home today, and decided that...

Finished my DIY bumper....thanks to everybody who chimed in on my last post....score and snap method won the day....followed up with dremel, hand sand, vice/heat gun for a 35deg. kick up. Came out better than I thought....but think it might be time to invest in a mini band saw for the shop. 20240716...

Woke up and finished the Fiero mechanically. I have to be in the mood to paint, and I ain't feeling it today. The TC4 from last weekend needs paint also, so maybe I will wait until I have three cars that need paint, and just do them all at once.

With the Fiero at a stopping point, and the rain pouring, I started into the next build. This is only my second motorcycle, and they definitely make for interesting builds. When you screw up building a car; fine, go fix it. When you screw up on a bike; take the whole thing apart, fix it, and then pu...

I haven't gotten in a good RC hunt roadtrip in some time, so headed a couple hours away this morning. The STs were the original deal, and then the Optima became an unexpected side deal.

Ran at the BBQ Blast today at RC Madness. Great day of racing and eating and more racing. Didn't do as well as I liked with my B6.4 but did have a great time in Silvercan despite that it had less of a turn out then I'd have liked, there was only 3 of us. Despite the Ultima having some electrical iss...

Chased the 4014 for a little ways today. It was a couple hours from home and my timing was bad, almost missed it. Literally parked as it was coming around for the bend. Ended up stopping at the bend for a quick lube job

Dear lord no!

What a weird thing to reproduce.... it wasn't the most popular kit even when it was new. Probably simply due to it's easily and cheaply manufactured due to recently having the aluminum tub and trans already in previous re-re models. I agree, it's an odd thing to re-release. In addition to parts alr...

This didn't have an outright date on it, but from the contents I have reason to believe it's from 1989. It has some writing on the cover which is interesting about the serial numbers.
