This is another month of feeling ripped apart by choice !
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.

The B&R that was originally chosen for the build just didn't have enough torque, so in went a Lemans 550 360ST unit. It worked perfect. It is not just a shelf queen, we drive it and its quieter than a nuclear submarine. So smooth. Want to thank Dadio for designing the chain drive parts that were needed.

I hate to become one of those people that tends to vote a certain way without too much regard for the specifics of all of the contestants, but I do find myself voting for the not-so familiar most often. For that reason, and well deserved, I am voting for KidAgain this month. I love AE Pan Car based dragsters!
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

Fierce battle between the Chained Frog and the Zealous Zerda!
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Eventually had to vote Zerda , I simply know how much time and effort it takes to make a zero original parts replica in this way and I love the Zerda as a car too .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

It's how I voted as well. That's a lot of work and it looks great.
