Very impressive. However, it would be "off-the-hook" impressive if it was remote control. I expect to see a full conversion done before Thanksgiving.

I'll get right on that. they have little scale tractors with implements down at the showroom. I thought about getting one and putting remote control on one of those.

A large number of RC cars, a big tractor, huge acreage with a big pond for fishing, no back neighbors... It is official! On behalf of all us men, and women, who find ourselves extremely jealous, I find it necessary for me to tell you this "YOU SUCK!!!" Now that I have that off my chest, I will go back to telling myself that what I have is perfect.

Envy is an ugly mistress.

I also envy his environment. Probably not the work it takes though.

That's why I would have an RC Tractor, but also bigger... and faster with independent suspension.

New t-shirt on the way.

Replaced my 24V 72A PSU with a 12V 75A PSU... couldn't take the noise of the fans on the dell psu's any longer. This time, I just bought one off ebay and added the resistors to turn it on and 4mm plugs myself. $20 vs $110 for the 24V... Well, $45. The first one I bought for $25 died after 3 minutes of pulling 30A out of it. Hoping they will send me a new one, otherwise that was a waste.

Anyone need a not so quiet 12V/24V 72A PSU? Only used it up to 30A for a couple months! LOL!

Baja 5b parts....

 

[olds97_lss]

Cool pipe! Will like to see and hear it installed!

 

[Tunedfrog]

I sure will. The actual Q baja comes with this pipe but doesn't come with the conversion kit.

Here is a quick sound sample, I haven't tuned it yet so throttle response isn't at its best...

 

[Tunedfrog]

The pop isn't quite as sharp as it is with the old pipe and is a tiny bit quieter so I'm happy with it..

 

[olds97_lss]

Yeah, that sounds pretty quiet. When I had the 5BSS, I put the can on it from the 5T and used reinforced silicone to extend it to beyond the rear tower. It was pretty quiet. I never even tried the short HPI tuned pipe on it that came with it.

Ordered some various caps and resistors so I can try and get my 1200W 12V HP PSU to turn on and stay on. Shuts itself off after an hour of being on with very little load on it...

 

[Tunedfrog]

She don't run like the wind but I'm happy with it.

Realized today that my 8 year old drive shaft on my slash 4x4 was way bent. Hopefully this will help it not eat my next spur gear

4 heat treated 17-4 H900 60deg cones, 6 17-4 stainless 60deg cones, and a Maverick Precision Raven 8" x 1.5" Silencerco ASR Bravo pattern titanium tube and end cap. All to replace my last .30cal suppressor build that UPS lost in transit to my SOT.

Nice shaft!

I felt like punishing myself, so I bought a Grilled Stuft Burrito, a Grilled Steak Taco, and a large Mountain Dew from Taco Bell.

Funny...

When I feel like punishing myself with food, I eat a salad.
When I REALLY want to punish myself, I make bacon and just stare at it, but don't eating it. Luckily I am not stupid enough to do that.

Purchased these last night to start my stadium truck project.
