well only 11 hour and I will be seeing you guys, I have just had a really bad let down.

Just put all of my parts in a box for transportation and putting my cars with the boxes, well I picked up the blackfoot extreme stood on my TV remote that broke and a shard of plastic was sticking up to my foot. Now I then dropped the Blackfoot and sat down (luckily no one in my house woke up) well... then I got up looked at my bust remote (well the battery bit is bust) and then picked up the Blackfoot! yer you have guessed it I broke it, the weakest point on the chassis, the wishbone at the front has snapped!

I might have a spare! but the front tire is knackered anyway (the lip that secures it into the wheel is broke so the from wheel comes off easily.) it looks like I will have to leave my Blackfoot at home!

So I will have:

  • Desert Gator.
  • Mad Fighter (needs the front upright but It will survive.)
  • Grasshopper.
  • HPI Sprint  (it has been for sale for 1year so obviously no one wants it so I'll just drive it!!)

If someone wants to claim the boxes (BMW M Roadster and Rising Storm) then I will bring them for you if not then they are in the bin.

WEB, Just would like to say sorry I have not been able to get the new URL sorted out for that I apologize!! I will try to get the website sorted out ASAP and I will post all of your pics and vids to the site if you send them to me at   send@clumbermeets.co.uk

Thanks I will see you all tomorow!!!

great day out guys and they just keep getting better everytime.the twin det has just had a blow dry and andys will be back on the kitchen table for a blow dry and clean so there lass wont be to happy.its nice to see new faces and the f350 looked the mutts nuts

Posted

really was an awesome day, thanks guys. accessed the damage; mantaray/topfoce needs new rear gearbox case(in stock), astute needs new front upright(have some stronger madcap ones to go on anyway), the revo is less broken than i thought - just needs a new roll pin(and maybe a new shell?), and apart from the bug body with side impact damage(love the photos!) thats about it. thinking about restoring them all into shelf queens and taking up something less boreing like knitting, might knitt a big jumper with a large dark coloured heffer on it, hmmmmmmmm. or perhaps not?

when shop is set up next time I will have all of that in stock  (10% off and a free pencil if you buy before 12:00. LOL [:P])

Sorry I have not replied, I am not over exaggerating when I say I have been working on the clumber meets site for the last 6 hours, steviedee you will have my videos soon  all 95 of them.

I am working on the site so if it is slow then sorry, I will be going through the showrooms in a mo taking all of your photos.

I got £27.20 from you lot, thanks! - That reminds me I still haven't checked to see if I have everything I left in that box yet [:o]

Also if I have pics of your model and you want the pic without the watermark on just ask me and I will send it you!

Joel

Oh yer my wright up:

Well guys I have to say I have had the most fun day in well, EVER!!!

I have truly ruined the grasshopper shell, The thing was really fast but as it went on the ramp just tipped upright, came back to earth and the wing was no longer there!

I put the 11t motor in the desert gator and it was just as fast (if not faster.) it certainly handled better. When it came to the jumps it was stunning!!! I kind of killed the receiver in the water though.

After stopping the Desert gator from working I decided I would have a go with the HPI Sprint! Well it had been for sale for about a year so I decided I would run it! I put in the 11t and decided I would go easy on it…. So I ramped it  - flew quite well to!..

Then got out my stock and let some lucky people have some bargains, (Didn’t sell the alpha but did sell the tires wheels and foams for it.)

I have got some fairly good photos (see it you looks really stupid using a tripod, you do get results.)  To have a look at the pictures so far look here - http://clumbermeets.co.uk

You can send me yours to info@clumbermeets.co.uk

You have really got me into these now, WHEN IS THE NEXT ONE   LOL
