Back after a few years break from R/C

Post by Lethal24 »

Hello Everybody. I've been into R/C since I was a kid (80s), but never really got into hobby grade vehicles until the early 90s. I took a long break for about 10 years, got back into it, then took another long break until now.

Just picked up a gold pan A stamp, and JRX2...and a JRXT, with a whole bunch of spare parts...lol

I'll get some pics up, as soon as I get them uploaded. :D

Awesome. Would like to see some pictures of that JRX2. I remember that rivalry when we were kids but I can barely remember what it looks like. The RC10 image has been imprinted in my mind I guess lol.

Thanks guys. The JRX2 was an Ebay score from Mr Lexan. I dont know if he is a member here, or not. It is in great shape.

The JRXT was a local find...the guy was cleaning out his garage, and just kept handing me extra stuff to go with it. :D I think he hoarded JRX2, and JRXT parts. :D
