The X1C. The Prusa I built last month. I'm trying to decide which to use to build my clasroom printer farm as I can buy 1.5 Mk4's for the price of an X1C. At the moment it is a matter of which slicer is easier to use and which prints faster. I Ike that I can soure parts and spares locally for the Prusa.

Picked up this FJ40 from FMS. It says "1/10 scale" but it's actually closer to 1/6. Anyway, it's nicely detailed.

A nice Reedy Sonic showed up. It might replace the Orion in my CC GFG Coffin build.

Not quite in the mail..... but met up with this nice Jason bloke today, after he drove down from Sydney to Melbourne (1000+kms) to say hello...
01.jpg

He dropped off some stuff that has been piling up...
02.jpg

Including a massive box of Schumacher vintage parts, cleaned, categorised and organised. Mostly Cougar-era 2wd stuff, so great for my C2s and Nitro 10s....
03.jpg

Also included my race runner Schumacher Shotgun, and WOISO Cougar2 Team car, all nicely cleaned and meticulously rebuilt.
04.jpg

This C2 Team is what I used to bash back in the early 2000's.... now reunited with my old body from back in the day :D
05.jpg

Also included a couple of Tamiya Group C chassis, which I'll get to working on some day :shock:

Big thanks to @Bormac for the delivery services, cleaning, sorting, bagging, rebuilding, and for being just a good bloke... and to Richard for the Tamiya stuff and some electricals.

Now to get started on race-readying..... only 6 months to go to Vintage Bash 3.0!

Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.

Indeed, it absolutely should. 11x2 is hotness, and the fact it's a Reedy Sonic and not an Orion :lol:

Been finding a bunch of good deals on R152JE's lately, and a R603GF. Some pinions and a Speed Gems Diamond 12T double.

Van might get a bit wet....

Maybe you should come down instead, for November's Vintage Bash.... no time like the present. If you have to, steal a loaf of bread ;)
