I just can’t take this being jailed by winter!! So I charged up the two sticks of dynamite for the vekta 12s , seeing how temps were above 40 , went to my usual spot and never really wrecked or anything, got home and the front of the body cage suffered heavy damage , don’t know how other than cold plastic trying to stand up to fridged exsplosive speeds well enter E6000 patched it up , temps are warmer Wednesday I’ll take a little less expensive rig then I guess ,,, lesson learned DAMIT !!!
 
Rarely do I drive when it's cold. I don't mind replacing parts when they break at all,
It's my body parts that take a beating. My body doesn't get along well with ole' man winter. :confused:
 
Hillariuose,,, thunder rc guy says he’s freezing !! It’s 63• he thinks he’s freezing it’s 28 and snowing here
 
I got the thing glued up it’s stronger than originally I use E6000 for a lot of things in rc it makes a body indestructible stuff is amazing it took the place of shoe goo long ago I will be adding another heavier coat tomorrow also did a heavy dose of super glue in between the breaks let that dry then E6000

Well,,,,, I didn’t stick to the plan of running something cheaper , it’s 50• outside I took the 5t with the Taylor 50 ran it through a bunch of leaves brodies n stuff the car disappeared at times then the inside of the body became a leaf n grass collector so I headed home with no issues that darn thing just flys , so much fun same weather tomorrow I’m thinking the Taylor 46 VESLA see if it can survive
 
Three weeks straight,, 30* break or not to break plastic stuff?! This is painful , got the kraken 12s completed, after a side painting job came up , but all I can do is stair , got a good buzz going when administering e6000 to the inside of the body though, then me n my beast got kicked out of the house cuz she didn’t like the buzz I guess , on me or her I’m not sure , I've CREATED MY OWN PRISON and I’m my own pains reciprocal 🤯🤯🤯🤯😳😳😳😳😳 But there’s gunna be a jail break soon !!
 
Well as I try to exist through the boring days of winter since my hockey knees won’t snow ski anymore ,,,, I decided to go through the diffs in my unused new notorious 6s , after watching videos it seems that Arrma thinks diff fluid is just to valuable to actually PUT SOME IN !!!! , both front and rear nothing but enuff to make it look wet !! I put some 1 million in the front and 100,000 in the rear , I’ll see how that does for now , and I’ll do the center on another boring day , I’m off to change my daughters toilet ring seal so boredom doesn’t set in , COME ON SPRING !!!!!
 
I do that also , but we have had freezing temps for weeks , ma thy lock n Perry mason just isn’t fun anymore , wife says I should try the movie channels , but movies take patience n concentration , I got all the dog poop picked up though it’s easy when it’s frozen
 
Jumped on the center diff project so easy almost thought I forgot something, but here’s there idea of diff fluid , wow pretty much nothing in there

I turn the gears as I add it put it together if nothing splodes out perfect it rolls beautifully come on spring !!!!
