Hey guys. I just received some unfortunate news that our bud shodog, Jim Peacock, was killed in a motorcycle accident earlier this month. His son sent me a message a little bit ago on his account.
His son is an r/c enthusiast as well. So he's going to try and keep Jim's account going.
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas Factory Works website
I’ve only been around here a short time, doesn’t take too long to pick up on how someone is. I’m sure his presence will be missed here and further more by his friends and family.
Best wishes to them. RIP Jim.
Who do you race for ?
Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.
Hey Cru ! Go balls out
Damn.... that's a kick in the goolies for sure. Jim was one of those people that I always had respect for... certainly his builds were more often than not out of this world, but he was always good to chat with, and happy to share his experiences. I'll miss his builds, and his positive attitude.
RIP Shodog... you will be missed

Look out for Todd K. - he's a convicted serial killer!!!
One of the giants here is lost, terrible news, my heart goes out to his family.
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.
I am pretty devastated hearing this news. Jim was one of my go-to people for help and advice, and we chatted a lot both on here and through Fb. He has helped me out with a lot of parts for my builds and always went out of his way to dig though his stash to locate unusual bits and bobs for my cars. The gold Phoenix alloys on my Supercharge Hotshot from BOTM earlier this year were down to his generosity and now have a much more meaningful place in my collection.
Receiving a positive comment from shodog on a build always felt like a big thing.
He will be hugely missed by myself, and across the hobby.
RIP Jim.
