Aww shucks!! Smilinbri got himself a Promoto MX!!!

[9x19]

I guess you i can day you were close but no cigar.

Speaking of baked...

So you don't actually have a Pro Moto.... just the promise of one?!

We should be compensated for that...

I agree!!! Where is the mystical porch full of frosty treats and RC giftboxes?!?!

Cool bike but its far too clean!!!

Adulting always be getting in the way. I was finally able to get it out and run it a little while as I was grilling burgers for Mother's day. This thing is a blast!! I def need more practice driving and also messing with the adjustments. Ran well in my fresh cut grass, but back tire wouldn't catch if it tipped over.

Tried it on my track.....o man I gotta practice! Turning on my tight track with this thing is def tricky. I got frustrated so busted out my smaller ramp and set it up in the grass. It jumps well and is so easy to land.

I ran it on my street for a min. Ran well even with the dirt tires. Popping wheelies is fun! Can't wait to get the street tires on and take it to a big open parking lot.

Only had time to run 1 pack though.

I did take some vids with my Go-Pro strapped to my melon, but haven't downloaded those yet. Had to go into the office today as my team was volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House making over 50 sandwiches, potato soup, and cookies. All from scratch! Better than being at work!! Lol

I couldn't figure out where to stick the balance cord, so I just wrapped the end and where the wires go in to the plastic with electrical tape to keep the dirt out. Any other suggestions?

I'm gonna go ahead and install my upgrades before I run it again as I want to practice with how it will be going forward.

More to come!!!

The rc is, of course, cool and all, but that lawn looks fantastic!
