Thanks fellas. Feels surreal winning. Not sure how long it will take to build it, but it feels like I'll need to sooner than later and not have it sit on the shelf NIB like the rest of my re-releases.

Awesome, congrats! Don't forget to crank up some Huey Lewis and the News while you're building it!

There are three of the hungry little buggers...

The buggy is more or less completed at this point. As I only have a pair of side guards, and the muffler side needs trimming, not knowing if I would eventually change back to the conventional muffler position, I decided simply not to install the side guards for now. The body has been sent off for pa...

I finally finished my Turbo Raider Pro restoration project that started in January when I pulled my old RC stuff out from my parents' attic. It was partially reassembled with the stock Outlaw motor after I had wrecked it in the mid-90s trying to run a hotter motor (which caused the MSC contacts to w...

I Finally drove something R/C! :lol: :P Having been purely a collector, the actual running of models hasn't been part of the equation in a very long time. I drove a small toy grade R/C car, and flew a toy grade dual coaxial rotor helicopter around 15 years ago, and that's been it. :shock: This summe...

I converted my ESC and batteries to Deans ultra plugs. Also had to re-learn how to solder. Managed to melt one of the plugs a bit in the process. Fortunately I bought extra.
