It's a rocket car innit , how else can I vote , simply one of my all-time favourites on this forum !
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

The building/running thread was best of the year imo.

It got my vote, and not because your my brother. Its because when you watch it run and hear it, your thinking, "what the fxck just happened!" And your heart is beating hard for 20 more minutes.

I can think of more fun aspects of running RC stuff.

Kedal's paint schemes are my favourites. This month's entry is no exception.
The $30 per run thread is priceless exciting entertainment. Good to know that you get 20 minutes enjoyment for this value, not only 1,xx seconds. I feel it's comparable to Scotch drinking
But have I mentioned yet that I love Kedal's paintart? Don't know what to do. In the end I will vote for one of the Yokes. Don't know what to do..
My respect goes to aircooled. His first ever entry is keeping up tight with mine. We both fight for the german ranking

As one who has played with rocket cars I can attest to the thumping chest and the wondering if the cops are gonna turn up comment
..... or if the car was going to smash through the window of Mrs. Jones new Mustang etc....

It's cool to see the differences between the Ten4.1 and B44, and the 834 and '91 Works. Different generations of 4WD design for Associated and Yokomo based buggies all gathered together. This is a serious collection of apples vs oranges entries this month.
