Rocket Lunchbox

Sneek peek of my next rocket build

I'm worried for this one guys. It's already naturally unstable with just a silver can 540 alone!

I love it, you started with something as aerodynamic as a brick.... what could go wrong

No I think he's onto something , there's some weird airodynamic thing with blunt objects and the sound barrier , gonna be a winner for sure

At least someone's doing it.

If it keeps raining, gonna make its 1st pass tommorrow, running a little more rocket that I want to start with, the lower power engines never got delivered...ordereded April 19th

Weather here sux, got it all ready, but over my better judgement the One talked me into not running that E engine and wait for the smaller engines...but did put a 20t pinion on it and baselined it with no rocket...it's got a Tamiya BZ motor in it..surprisingly it ran 33mph...alot faster than I was expecting...big torque too, still pulls wheelies

Good news, engines came in today, now just have to find the right time to test..u can't just take it out..just cause we think it's cool...if a bystander would see they would be like..."awww, that poor guy must have gotten a new toy over the weekend"....I got a rep to protect

After Tooky's Cindi Lauper confession I don't think your rep is the one in question.

Disaster struck this morning, the Estes "D" engine exploded destroying the Lunchbox R.I.P.

...engine exploded destroying the Lunchbox

That'll buff out.

This is an opportunity to make a new body out of a real lunchbox

It's not really destroyed..the truck still runs great, maybe better than before on the motor...I ordered a new engine mount cause the front half got blown off..I realistically can have it ready for another test hit in 30 to 45 mins..with a new windshield and clear coat (Thumbs hates clear coat even tho his Dominator is cleared) that body will look great..not cleaning the truck till after it's successful...what if the next "D" blows....came from same package
