Sammo 479 Posted June 28, 2017 I'm about a week late with this but after spotting this going cheap on eBay I ended up with another car! Something I didn't notice on the eBay ad was the previous owner, in an effort to keep the motor cool I'm guessing, has drilled a load of holes in the rear casing! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wooders28 4723 Posted June 28, 2017 Postman has been with goodies, or rather " Daddies presents here, mummy going to shout" as my 2yr old now says 😕 Kind of pointless stuff now too, Dedicated servo, rx, wheels/tyres and Schumacher kf2 shocks, for the now unlikely speed run attempt 😔 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonathon Gillham 4606 Posted June 29, 2017 Does non-rc stuff belong here? I got 3 bottles of single malt delivered. I'm thinking that a lot of whisky fuels much of what goes on here, I mean really who in their right mind would try and make a toy car go 100kph?! 12 hours ago, Wooders28 said: Postman has been with goodies, or rather " Daddies presents here, mummy going to shout" as my 2yr old now says 😕 That is one of the funniest things I have read in a long time, only a 2yo could come up with that. 11 hours ago, Madcaper said: Today I got my Top Force 2017 from Lindinger.

Not that I know anything about what you guys are talking about in detail, might as well be Latin or Greek to me, but don't forget one thing, SCALE, a wee bit in 1:10 scale is to be multiplied by 10, so that is 10X a wee bit.

Crash this "fun" just caused me to spend 2 hours replacing a broken chassis on my DF02... scale that's equivalent of going to the cinema and seeing a good film 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
