The "What did you buy today?" thread...

[Littlemotor]

I will have to check all my emails now.
I thought I'd reached Nemo in England.
I'm all confuddled now! It might have been Agama directly
Doesn't matter a whole lot if the car I want isn't in production yet!

They’re in the UK, AND the US…

That's a good thing to ponder.

Picked up a Steering Column Control Switches Module Assembly for Mrs. Littlemotor’s Mercedes CLK 500…

At least I was able to locate the problem… It’s circled in the grille insert..

Thats so weird!
My car has "blue oval syndrome"
The source of the problem is the EXACT same spot on the grill!!!
I made it to the yard as they were closing the gates on Sat.
We will have to head back later this week.

Ordered all of that stuff. And also thanks @luke66 for giving me a heads-up that Proline axis body for the mini b was on sale on horizon hobby just for 8 bucks. Killer deal. I saw they had a pair of rear mini b shocks for 9 bucks but dad said, do you need those? And of course my dumb butt said no (even though I should have said yes but the ones I have now are perfectly fine but it's always good to have extra lol )

The life of racing. Tires tires tires and more tires

 

[DavidB1126]

Dad says all of those parts are for my early bday present. And I got a idea for Christmas. Getting my uncle CNHL 4900 120C shorty packs. And a note saying get ya car running and get out of the house lol. With 25 bucks cash for race fee.

You should have been truthful and you were. You're a good young man and the God's of R/C, Karma, Universe... will pay your goodness back to you.
I do believe that.
Good for you David.

I haven't bought anything "cool" in a minute...not buying this, but curious if any of you have purchased things like this...and can they be modified at all or it's more of a scale, run um' how they are built, style machine.

BTW, your music broke my car. There's been a rattle in the driver's door ever since I played that Sploinky song at MAX.

 

[Warby]

I bought some stuff that I don't need, but there is a remote chance that I might need in the future. Only because they were half price.

My first job in pro audio was a rave in Providence, Rhode Island. We wheeled in SL36 Earthquakes and Cerwin top boxes with Ashley MFA 2000 and 8000 amps.
The system was absurd for the size room we put it in.
About a month in, the owner pulled us aside at "load in" and says...
"See that hole in the wall??? That's where the tv used to be. No more bass on this side of the room."

Have fun at the rave @paytonimusrex

The battery doors are cheap enough but if you buy them in bright colors, they're easier to find when they do fall off.
