not sure what happened to rctech but it feels half as genuine/organic as it used to be back in 2018 or so, nowadays it just seems to be occupied entirely by racers hellbent to grab whatever the latest and "greatest" race kit there is, and even if someone out there proves whatever new car is barely a smidge faster for twice the price of the current kit, some people on there WILL flock to the new kit anyways the same way investors flock towards anything thats "AI powered" (it does the same thing everyone else has done, but it has AI so it has that extra pizazz - it actually doesn't but people buy into it any way); dont forget the occasional sprinkle of bot activity and barely anyone notices

not even bashing rctech since it's literally the first alternative I found when URC went down, just an observation of how it goes over there
That.
ill bash tech all day long. 🖕that place. it's been a hemorrhoid licking circle jerk for elitist with more money than brains sense i made my first account there back in 2008. only reason i started using it was because Jang tanked URC (i call BS on it crashing) and RC Universe was circling the drain with more bot posts than user posts. all the URC refugees went to tech and i fallowed with a new (second) user name about a month later. things hit the fan about 2 weeks later because the moderator is a futanari loving megalomaniac. i let it go, then a month or two later got an email from the forum for an account i had made back in 2008 and started using it again cause i had nowhere else to go. anyway long story long, I'm shadow banned over there (user name st_dragn_wagen) and then found this place. so happy ending.
Yes, JANG had a great thing going. Lots of great info/threads......just gone. I'd love to hear the full story.
Don't you know California always causes the chaos? 😅 :D

I was on RCTech for a bit when I got into racing because of the track/hobby shop threads and each area/thread on a specific kit but I haven't been on there for like 2 years. Most if not all of the track threads on there, in my region, are dead. Most of them are just facebook groups now. Also I couldn't stand the old school type of forum format. I need a dark mode. Lol.
The best thing about RCTech...

my version is that he was loosing money on the channel and forum after his local track closed and his reviews became very difficult to produce. his lego stuff was where the money was and he tanked the RC forum to get out from under it. if he decides to walk away and close the forum he's a villain. but if the forum "crashes" and will take time to fix. people loose interest over time, move on to other places and forget about it, its out of his hands and he's free no questions asked.
 
A package that said arriving today which was yesterday and a new post today that says arriving today which just left Portland, so it certainly won't be
arriving today.
Why don't they just post the truth and say, we have no fuggin clue where it's at and we'll send an email when you actually get it a day or two after you receive it.:mad::mad::mad:
 
I ordered a Kyosho TF5 on Feb 3rd. It showed up today. 🤯 🤔 Not sure if this is a rant or not. 🤷‍♀️

The car isn't perfect but neither is the driveway. Sandy, wet nasty really. Its the 1st on road I've driven in a LONG time!!!

I had fun! 😎😁👍
 
there's a muscle in my back that when i turn my head certain ways or to fast or move my left arm in certain ways causes the muscle to spasm and cramp up. very uncomfortable.
I have the same thing going on right now. I've had it off and on for around 2 years since I almost broke my neck wrestling. Safe to say I don't wrestle for sport anymore.

Have you tried cbd for muscle issues at all?

Otherwise I recommend not turning your head in certain ways and moving too fast. Def don't move your arms in certain ways too!!! 🤕

You could try a few simple exersizes while you're at work to help loosen the muscles...

It is life changing stuff! I use a menthol camphor... cbd gel thats amazing!
Smoking it is great too if you have no pee tests to study for. 👍

I take it every day.

I tend to smoke stuff that is high in cbg...which helps to work on pain differently. Supposedly it works on pain receptors, if I understand correctly, making them less reactive to input essentially. I don't think I have less pain, but I care about the pain less which let's me focus on other things.
 
The stress and amount of work and decision making when applying for a new role, even if it's with the same company. Been working on my resume and such for over a week every evening at home, put in for the job last night. We shall see.
