The reason I have'nt bought another Honda....(with bonus picts just for Jhonny)
 
....is because this RC ---- has me on lock :P. I went to the hobby shop to get a fuel bottle and I couldnt pass this baby up. It really pisses me off too couse just the other day, as I was looking at the latest Honduh T00ning mag, I though I had made up my mind to save my pennies and get another 95 coupe. I guess in the long run this will be cheaper ;)

I stumbled upon an R/C store the other day, and it turned out to be way advanced for me. Like no put together anything, just massive amounts of small parts for any and everything.

To me thats the fun part about it Steve. I'm selfish with my time and I need alone time. Before it was my Civic now its my toys. I have taken the monster truck apart plenty of times now. I have added sway bars, replaced all 300( :X) screws with a stainless steel kit, rebuilt the transmission to run forward only, filled the diffs with different weight fluids and rebuilt the engine. That ---- relaxes me :S

I have about $500 in RC ---- in the garage asides from th etruck and the boat that I need to put on ebay. Then I cab buy that 2 stroke 5B buggie :y

Nice boat! I might be selling my RC here I can't decide. Closest track is over an hour away :( Just don't use it much. What sucks is I just bought a new engine for it. Traxxas T-Maxx with a 3.3 motor thing hauls ass! Well over 45-50. Hell I still have 3 old ones sittin there too haha. Losi buggy, RC10-T3 and an HPI RS4 Pro.

I like the fact that when my nitro stampede flips I can run over to it and pick it back up

What do you do when this thing sinks? :4

What do you do when this thing sinks? :4

I still need to cut up some foam noodles and stuff them around the rear of the boat. The front has a big block of styrofoam in there. It might flip, but it wont sink ;). And since the motor is mostly filled with fluid anyways you can just drain the water, spray it with WD40 and start the fucker ricght back up.

Here is what my 2 trucks look like now. The electric is parted out and all my electric ---- will be for sale soon on Egay. The Monster truck I will never get rid of! You have to have respect for a truck that can drive away from a failed front flip at 40MPH and 15 feet in the air. That thing is indestructible >:D

I though about getting that Miss Bud but they dont fare very well on windy days by what I have read. Looks awsome though and they are fast as hell on smooth water.

This site http://www.twistedliquidracing.com/llumar.htmlsells some cool ---- for the Miss Bud.


I just orderd their rudder upgrade to get rid of the universal joint and the plastic rudder.

Here is what it will look like. 8)

Re: The reason I have'nt bought another Honda....(with bonus picts just for Jhonny)
 
Cool ----, guys...My dad used to have a few of the gas boats, we used to go to the races and to the hobby shop and ---- alot...I'd like to have one of the gas buggies, but I just can't afford puttin' money into my car and paying allll the bills as it is. I don't see how you guys afford it...I have a Kyosho Hi-Rider Vette sittin' in the closet, I haven't played with it since I was 10, the wheel on my contoller(pistol grip style) is messed up somehow. It doesn't spring back when you turn it, it just rolls around...I think about gettin' it fixed sometime and giving it to my lil boy when he gets a lil older...
Oh yeah, about the boats...do they still make the offshore replicas that are powered by the weedeater engines(or maybe it was chainsaw??)?? Those always looked cool as hell to me....

I had to send the boat motor in for warrenty work. It was leaking fuel out of th emain bearing after 7 tanks of fuel. :'( . More than likely they'll send me a new motor :6

R/C's are my addiction now. Here are some vids I made the other day.
Here is the first back flip I pulled off the other day.
