I hate that crap! It is slightly better than the rain we get for 7-8 months a year though.

We get plenty of snow up here in Alberta, Canada. I wish I had a Kyosho Blizzard! :)

I drive a Taxi, limits as to what they will plate in the way of a 4X4 for my job, and it's just sheer volume of traffic, moving 8 miles in 4 hours makes no money :?

What's that got to do with driving a tow truck? :mrgreen:

Ok, you didn't like that Idea. How about mounting a plow to the front of your cab? Make a little extra plowing driveways while you're waiting for traffic to get moving again. :wink: :mrgreen:

That heli flys pretty good as well. I have flown the same model several times and it is very easy to control. At least you got extra tail rotor blades. Don't let them get close to anything, they snap very easy.

Have fun

Those are pretty cool! I thought I would never see some of these again. I have the 2002 Toyota TF102. Only thing is the battery is dead. You don't happen to know where one would find replacements?

Those are a fullset of the 2003 versions, all sealed, but I do worry the batteries in the cars may be dead, nimhs, and it states on the box, 200 charges then die, I have had ones before and the batteries have died, I think I did sees ome for sale once, but more $$ than the models, I stole the set for $30 posted :lol:
