A work friend brought in some coffee to share at Christmas time and It was the best coffee I've ever had the pleasure of consuming. I had to order some right away and after what felt like forever (2 weeks) it finally arrived. Kinda pricey but I dont care, its that good. Straight from Hawaii.

A Temu special 1/18 drift car. Actually not bad for under $30.00. One problem, charged the battery, hooked it up turned on the switch and the switch broke. So I soldered the switch wires together, and now it works.

My $200 Capra came. Looks like fun - bigger than I expected!
The Bronco is an RGT that's a true 1/10, and the baby Capra is 1/18?

Yeah, I'm not sure how they consider that 1/18. Its almost comical when you compare it to any other 1/18 scale rig. The factory lighting is pretty impressive.

Looks like the same size as the 1/12 scale Element Ecto.

Here it is compared to a 1/18 redcat.

How long before we get speed run footage of you in the passenger seat with an FPV setup running a nitro car in front?

Hold your breath on that one for sure…

I did a couple quick 140mph blasts with it prior to assuming ownership.. It had plenty more. I’m just happy SHE is happy with it.

Now it’s time to mar it HERS.. Having my boy run a complete 3” mandrel bent full exhaust under it from the header collectors. Will be flanges, then a pair of Vibrant 3” mini resonators, then x-pipe, then a pair of stainless Borla Pro-XS 3” muffler under the rear bumper cover with oval tips. Should sound TONS better, and make far more power. I’ve ALWAYS been VERY picky with my exhaust systems over the years. This will be no exception.

After that will be a set of Pontiac G8 GT 19’s, and likely Nitto 555 G2’s. I like doing things that make a vehicle at least LOOK like it could’ve come from the factory the way it sits.. Similar to this one:

Then I’ll more than likely be doing this hood..

Then we can start tackling less pertinent revisions. Really do like this car already…
