It’s been reported on Facebook that Sr has passed. Another legend gone. There are gonna be some bad ass old school races up there.

I notice we haven't heard from @THEYTOOKMYTHUMB since the little green men came and gave him a little green probing.... hope you're okay, mate....

This is planned to be a high end XX4 with modern electronics, running a 13.5 brushless motor. This project has been in the pipeline since before I finished my early version XX4 shelfer, several years ago. I have been gathering parts for the past several years, but a clean solid graphite XX4 chassis ...

The T2 got a bit of a workout today and man was it fun, the size of the park was unreal. Traction was very low on the polished concrete and the truck was sliding around a lot, but everything flowed excellently. Please excuse the crappy "video capture" pictures as I couldn't drive and take ...

Steering - I wanted to improve and strengthen the stock steering. I am using the upgrade aluminum 22-4 steering arms. To make them work in the XX4, I had to turn down the post to fit the standard bearings of the XX4. I'm also using this Fox Pit Stop carbon fiber steering rack. This rack requires tri...

Today I present to you my Tamiya 1966 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. I got two of these kits sometime September of last year and i finally got one done :lol: The kit was straight forward and easy to build. I purchased an additional clear body kit just in case i had a mishap the included body. Im glad to r...

Just a little something...

I swear for someone with OCD that hates change, this is the 3rd time I have changed things in the past year in the shop🤪. Been needing to expand the gun room area because of all the new firearm purchases, plus with getting into reloading now, I was already running out of room since the last time I e...

Went with a mate to look over a car he was thinking of buying , a Marcos . Went past the White Horse , its chalk hillside Neolithic picture, thousands if years old , crap picture but it was out the window of a moving car , I love stuff like that .

I'm a big fan of the Jconcepts finned turnbuckles. These are the slightly bulkier 3.5mm Ti units in black, fitted with Lunsford ends. Lunsford and Jconcepts both make such impressive products. The appearance and finish of Lunsford titanium hardware is better than anything else in the RC market that ...

Time for the fun stuff. I am using a Skektrum S6245 servo. It comes with a ridiculously short 2" lead. I was wondering how best to route the wire to the other side of the tunnel when I realized I could go straight through it. I notched 2 small openings the size of the wire. The fit is tight eno...

Some Trinity goodness. Because this chassis isnt cut to allow the motor to sit lower, I couldn't use the motor mount I preferred. I considered cutting the chassis, but am going to hold off for now. I was very happy to find a set of black tunnel plugs. These have gotten quite scarce. I'm starting wit...
