hey guys and girls her is the tribe.....

Firstly i got the erge to forfill a child hood downfall, as when a child the parents said no to anything big or fast as i was always in the wars without needing a 40MPH car hitting me or others.

After talking about getting an RC car when i got my 1st job i finally went and bought a Thunder Tiger Pheonix.
I have no pics but still have the car, sadly the gear box broke and after waiting some time the partd still were not in sight so.....
I bought a Thunder Tiger TS-4N Plus to keep me company.
This new car was great going from off-road to on-road was a real change, after a good beating from being 1 of my 1st Nitro cars finally 4 days after buying i broke the WishBone-

Thankyou for looking.

I can do this because I'm single. My ex wife wouldn't have let me buy any of what I have. Hats off to you two for being involved in the same hobby......

One question though if I may, between the two posts you mentioned not being able to get parts for several Thunder Tigers, yet you kept buying more... Why?
I have several T/T's and I like them all, but parts where I am aren't a problem..... Just curious.

Not at all its not Thunder Tiger them self its the company that deliver for them, to be honest i bought the pheonix and when it broke i bought the other the same time my boy friend did, basically we went RC MAD!!!!!
 
due to Jo being upset cos she broke her car i thought id be nice and temporary repair it, i found an old wire coat hanger and made a solid metal rod for the broken suspension and fixing the wishbone the best i can
heres a little piccy of my handy work:

As I said I'm just accident prone. lol.
I thought it was 3rd time lucky, Or maybe its 4th.
You gotta laugh even if it is nearly £200 a piece.

I want to know how you manage to break these things, when nono of them look like they've ever touched the ground.
I've got cars that get dirtier than that sitting in my lounge room........
(i did say I'm single)
 
Thanks i see you have a new truggy how is it running so far.

Been out on it today and boy it's so fast.. it had to be tuned slower as it was too fast for me! the handling feels great too.. it can do really tight turns... can't wait to take it on the track!

so how many nitro cars,trucks do you have? and do you have any electric?
 
well I've just wrote 2 of mine off so I've only got 1 but getting another next week I'm thinking kyosho hyper st.
I have no electric cars i used to and it was quick but then thought nitro was better and so far so good.
Do you race your cars then. where abouts do you race then.
