Not to take away from the nature of the thread but taking it up to another level slightly, i like my models to have engines and this has been needing repairs for a while so its gonna get a good Ti treatment. Bunch of performance parts to replace the crappy plastic ones that just dont work past 70mph still waiting on the k&N filter and driveshafts to replace the two bent ones on the front. Cant show the body as it would be like giving my fingerprints out but trust me its very green with semi illegal ACD livery (I did not ask permission in other words ).

Fair bit of work to be done tbh but i hope to have it back on the road b4 christmas creating a menace in the hood

Anyone got a real car they want to gamble on it

I have had a few Tamiyas but i am bit of a speed demon so nitro was the only answer and its funny watching the faces of real car drivers as i fly on by as it pops through the gears. Even funnier is the local bmx ramp that launches it 40ft in the air

Stoner fun

Cool, I used to build planes all the time when I was a kid. Should have a ton back home.



This was always my favorite.

Maybe I should go to the store and buy a kit this week...
