    Questions on good race friendly options

    Haha yeah I rember the mod scene. My original Slayer had an upgraded ECU with sway bars, swapped out tranny gears and everything. On the plus side, i just picked up 8 pounds of plaster and some foam board. 4 smaller precut boards and one larger for a mointain/tunnel piece. I'm also thinking...

    Ahh ok. I know what those are, just never heard of them as rock bouncers. If I do try to do one of those, i might need a 2nd one to outfit. Unless my wife wants to do it together with ours. But that would be hella cool to play with in my bearded dragons tanks since i have lava rocks and...

    Just for you haha. I forgot these things were crawlers. I thought they were off road racers. I am still going to make paper mache obstacles though, maybe a small mountain and stuff. Will be a fun craft to do.

    OMG, my wife and I just had a chuckle to this. We are Allen American fans and we are heasing to the game tonight, in which, Allen plays Idaho! Haha thank you. I'm going to get some paper mache stuff to build a few things to for fun in our apartment, which i guess can be taken anywhere. Not...

    So there was a slight change in plans when I got to Hobby Town with the wife. I somehow talked her into getting a small rc to play together haha. So i got 2 of the Axial SX24 offroad vehicles for small scale fun in our apartment! This was not only amusimg that she agreed, but now I can dream...

    Questions on good race friendly options

    Don't get me wrong, I do like trucks too. One of the main reason I has the Slayer/Slash and S-Maxx. Still sad how I lost all my RC's. They were all on their way back from germany on a pallete. For some reason, they put my stuff into 2 pallets instead of one. Well, there was a fire and one...

    Questions on good race friendly options

    I made a few phone calls today to the places that were open. The Hobby Town close to my house has a RB10 and a Losi Mini-B but they close in a hour and i am on my 10th hour of 12. But, at least I can try to sneak there tomorrow so the wife doesn't see how much I am going to spend getting both...

    Yeah, Hobby Town USA. There are a few in the DFW Metroplex with 1 being about 10 minutes from my work, and another being within 10 minutes of my home haha. They always have giant stockpiles of cars, and you do see a LOT of Tamiya, Traxxas, and Arrma around. Sometimes, it feels like trying to...

    Haha. BTW, thank you for your service. Where were you deployed to? I spent 15 months in Baghdad. Also, to Stoner, it does suck. The shop in question was the one he did a few good Mini Z track races with his sons and the local meets. Unfortunately, my job has me working 12 hour shifts...

    Questions on good race friendly options

    I have actually watched a LOT of his video's and he is actually up in McKinney, right outside of Dallas where I am. One of the "tracks" he went to actually closed with the shop at the end of July, which leaves 2 in the area close by. He has visited both and that is how I found out about the...

    Questions on good race friendly options

    Thank you for the quick reply. And I do agree with Traxxas being a more entry level brand, their are hundreds around these parts because of a Traxxas store near by. I owned the Slash, Slayer, and an S-Maxx which I had great fun with, but never raced. I only looked at the Arrma because that's...

    Questions on good race friendly options

    Hello, I use to play around with RC cars around 12 years ago when the Slash and Slayer were first released but have not done anything in years. I helped a coworker find a cheap RC option for his little brother but now we are trying to find something decent for ourselves. My initial...
