All I want for Christmas is...

Post by Dangeruss »

With Christmas fast approaching...

...If Santa could put ANY R/C items under your Christmas tree, what would be at the top of your list?

As usual I have to slim mine down... apparently Christmas Wish Lists shouldn't be so long they have a Table of Contents. :mrgreen:

Who makes up these rules?!? :roll: :D

The RC10CC is my Christmas present this year..

I would leave out some extra special cookies & brownies for Santa if he left me the Project Optima, yellow & Blue truck from RCCA December 1987..

Not to be a pig, but if I could pick a second buggy, I just can't shake my desire for an original Losi 5 link. 8)

Those aren't radio controlled...I am only going for the R/C Rocket record...not baby's toys on strings, which is what those are...it's embarrassing...the record is 210.11mph set in 2016...it's in the books

Well, If you go for it I'd pitch in a few bucks to see it happen.
