  1. I’m up for this any of the above locations would work with me. I currently have 2 runners an XV01 and Blitzer Beetle, count me in for off road or on road 👍
  2. Thanks @jonboy1, hope all is well with you buddy 🙂 The question came up on Sunday in a chat with a fellow rc’er and a Google search lead me to this thread! What’s your thoughts on this question then? I went with ‘Yes, the SC is an SRB’.
  3. Great thread - my vote would have been SRB. But I’d say like the revised BMW E36 M3 - a Super Champ is an Evolution SRB 👍
  4. Wife or not, it is about managing yourself. Spend only what you can comfortably afford. Buy only what you need or are going to make use of. Our house - bills & kids, always 1st priority - then gym, social stuff and a bit of Tamiya. My hobby spending fluctuates, but I do monitor my outlay carefully as it can quickly escalate 😳. November I bought 2 used runners, so in December I didn’t buy anything at all. January it is highly unlikely I will spend anything either, as this is one the most expensive months of the year for our household. Tamiya for Christmas and birthdays is great and there are always good deals on eBay, you just have to be patient and know your values.
  5. Thankfully I have a new nose cone in my spares purchase from @BuggyDad. I haven’t got the skills or patience to glue the broken nose back together 😂
  6. Just made a small direct order with TTP, free postage and 10% off, happy days 🎉
  7. After 6 weeks of heavy incoming artillery, from 3 sides I’ve found a few moments to play today 💥 I’ve swapped out the ESC, servo and fitted a Tamiya 510000 servo saver, and after many unsuccessful attempts trying not too crash I can confirm my BB is good to go again at long last -
  8. The Top Force, all day every day, the build mirrors your sons kit - being built stock, pre painted, hop ups later and it will be run. You’ll be able to build step by step together and run them together - The EVO being ‘dads’ buggy and the one your son will remember forever and want for nostalgic reasons later on in life.
  9. Looks great, lots to like here. I particularly like the windscreen deflector, a very neat touch 👏
