Rig of the Month Discussion thread

[332_RC]

I really hope I don't have to view this month. This one is already off to an incredible start!

Yes! Agreed! But what do you mean hope you don't have to view this month?

 

[332_RC]

Oh Agreed green reaction is gone & COOL took its place. Mike's favorite!!

When it's a tie, I believe @WoodiE will cast the final vote. Am I correct? @WoodiE ? .

 

[blaster27]

I will wait. .

 

[332_RC]

I think the tie breaker is the two RCs in a tug o war to see who wins.

That's correct.

 

[blaster27]

No tug of war needed. The winner is cast in stone. . .

 

[332_RC]

No, not necessary, but that would be cool, indeed!

What rig would you choose? But you have to own it. ok?

I will choose my Sledge. Bet you win.

Think you own a Big Rock 6s. You win. .

Yeah, my K6 4990 up in the ROTM is a monster. Against a Lim wouldn't want to know what would even happen. My K6 weighs less than my Infraction 6s, even with the 4990 monster motor. Both weighed without tires or batteries. Just the chassis's & cover. That Sledge with paddle tires is cool.

 

[blaster27]

Either way we both win. .Gotta love it. .

 

[blaster27]

I would never even think of a tug of war with the Lim. Just not made for that. .

 

[332_RC]

I know. I've watched YT vids of ppl doing it with RC monster trucks & it just breaks stuff.

I run my noto and Typhon pretty hard. I really beat them like they owe me money. But I am not the Talbot kind of guy. I never launched a machine to the stratosphere. But I love the wheelies on the Noto. Reminds me of the Midnight Pumpkin from Tamiya. . The Arrma rigs are built like armor. .

Same. I had a Blackfoot as a kid. I also had a Boomerang. I purchased both with $$ I made cutting grass with a push mower in my grandmother's neighborhood. The Boomerang was a great RC. The Blackfoot stayed torn up because I ran it like the Boomerang.

 

[blaster27]

Right? Back then we had to put em together. With that said it was easier to put em back together after a crash. . Had a black foot as well. Miss those days. .

 

[332_RC]

Yeah and was like 11 or 12 & I put them together. I figure not bad for a 11 year old The Boomerang just held up to everything.

I sold the Boomerang in HS. Kept the Blackfoot for years, in a box, in pieces. Bought a Boomerang re-release in 2008.

I tried a front wheel drive in the 80s. Tamiya. Got rid of it. .

 

[332_RC]

@Mike2507 I got a Limitless

 

[blaster27]

Very cool. . Wonder if it's faster than the other Hot Wheels? .
