Hey All,

I wanted to share some pictures from the Drag Race event over the weekend. (there's another coming up on June 2nd)

Here's a link to all of the pictures
http://www.bigsquidrc.com/pictures/holeshot_5_07/
since I'm not sure how many I can load, I'll just do a few for the moment.
I Hope you like!

Brian

Those things just look bad ass. Is that a 1/5 scale Monster Beetle in the last pic?
 
Yes, that is a monster beatle... under the hood of that thing was insane! It was by far the nicest 5th scale I have ever seen.


I did shoot some video, I didn't rip it yet. I'll try and throw something together in a few days.

There are more pics on that link.. but here's the beatle underneath!

I forgot to mention, it even had an electric start! That's the red box I think.

That beetle is a real work of art. Even has an onboard battery. All it'd need is a 3rd channel to start the engine up, and that'd be the ultimate R/C.
 
Those rides look so swwwwweet !!! wish i could have one...but...no money !!:whhooo:
 
It was a fun day, and the next one is coming up next weekend! (2nd)

I'm not 100% sure what size the engine was in the beetle.. I'm guessing 30cc. It was probably the fastest 1/5th scale I have seen.. most top out around 40mph.. I'm sure this was close to 50.. the acceleration was awesome!

here's a link to the flyer.. and I'll attach it here if anyone is in the area.
