I got another New Toy too.
Well, some may remember back when I posted some pics of my nitro RC monster truck, the T-Maxx, but I sold that and now I got a new one. Its a Traxxas Revo, and its the best truck out right now, I have already done an engine swap and this thing does almost 55 mph with its 2 speed transmission. I did a paintjob inspired by the Homestar Runner website. Here's some pics:

No, its a fun hobby when its too damn cold out to be workin on my car. Plus I also plan on racing it and its something that me an all of the guys I work with do on the weekends. I have jumped this thing over 30 feet in the air and done some backflips and landed it. It's a beast. |

Re:I got another New Toy too.
The engine is a .18, but its one of the most powerful .18's out there with over 2hp.
Yeah, you need a lot of hobbies when you are married. You will know one day, Doc. |

R/C cars are for nerds. :P I used to have one, but it was electric and I got smoked by all the nerds with gas powered cars so I sold it. I was going to go all out and buy the biggest baddest gas powered car I could find, but I figured I already have enough hobbies that require 110% of my money. :-\ __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |
Re:I got another New Toy too.
I have an old school electric one, its pretty sweet. I never got why people get these things that are so fast, I mean whats the point, they go a million miles an hour till you can't see them?
I'm sorry but an electric RC car + busy road in the middle of the night with no lights = fun. Its such a rush after a car goes by and it didn't crush it. |

Yeah, me an some guys at work are working on a light setup for the trucks, brake lights, head lights and some fogs. We are building a track and some night races will be in order.
I have an electric truck too, but its 1/18th scale and is used for indoor dirt track racing, its fast as hell too, about 40 mph. Its called a Mini T. |
