• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

My new toy

call me crazy, but that just seems like a bit too much work and money for what you get out of it... id rather mod my real car, but too each their own. i must admit i have a addiction with collecting 1/24 scale nascar diecast i havent bought as many since i bought my real car but they are expensive as hell and have at a retail value about 1500 dollars worth of the 1/24's alone. not too mention all the 1/64's, autographs, hats, shirts, and other misc. collectables

Ouch. The good thing about RC's is you can do that and fix it fairly easily. I miss going out and tearing my stuff up for an afternoon. I really need to pull them out and try to get them running again.

T-Maxx's suck...especially the older ones.

I broke something every time I took it out. Ended up selling it for what I bought it for. It constantly needed tuned and ****ed with.

My team associated I have now is so much more basic and easy to play with.

My original statement stands.
 
Haha try clipping a skateboard grinding rail hanging out about 4 inches in the road and hugging the edge of the road at around 60 mph...............poof the car went about 8 ft in the air and rolled about 15 times and I was out in the cultisac for an hour looking for salvageable parts and it cost $140 to fix, those pix of that tmaxx looks like a flesh wound compared to that jato I totaled lol.
 


im pretty satisfied with my first paint job
im sure the more i look at it, the more imperfections i will notice and it will just bum me out. so i am not going to look at it
im going to get a gray autobot decal for the rear so its like ironhide
