Know of any good Youtube RC videos? Can be informative, historical, funny, provocative, dumb, relaxing... Anything with replay value that you enjoy watching repeatedly?

I like this one... short, sweet... makes you want to go out and buy a Stadium Blitzer...

Now THAT was a race!

Coxbros1 in front out of the gate, Frankentruck charges forward to take the lead, then coxbros1 lunges ahead in the final stretch to take the win!

Congrats Coxbros1! Very sweet car

Wow, he does make some pretty good videos. This one (from 14 years ago!) ... the soundtrack cracked me up... all 70's porn "Bow-chika-wow-wow"

Car is looking good. Might not be the Nassau blue you intended, but it's just about bang on for Admiral blue. Very pretty as is. 👍 Depending on how far you want to go there are a few options...

New from A-main, Et al. they're only like $150 shipped+tax... 10.25 wheelbase 193mm AWD on-road RTR.

Love the last photo.

Can lightly oil the pin and place it in the baking soda before adding the glue... for those without a dremel.

RCCA needs to bring PIT TIPS back....

That come out extremely nice. Sure you didn't just set a molded plastic part on your printer bed for a glory shot? :wink: :P :lol: All joking aside, that really is an impressive surface finish. 👍 ...oops!
