What I am saying is, if you want to get these chassis made, I have the contacts on your side of the pond, and can work on distrubution over here too. It's kinda what I do for a living.

Hey, thanks for the help Art. That is awesome. We will definitely have to chat when you cross the pond. Do you like beer?

Also, Art...BTW, I am not sure if it is even possible, but I am doing cartwheels inside my head looking at those parts.

Yeah, my wife isn't quite so Local, Wo tai tai Taiwan ren...but same deal!! lol

eh, imports?? You know that in my line of work that takes on a whole new meaning...factories...got luv'em!! lol

ANYWAY....I am a fan of the bar, can never remeber the name, a Candian guy owns in, has live Phils band every night. It's upstairs above starbucks and the italian joint... over in Shekou...I know you know the one. In my neck of the woods, we have a Cuban bar that has a retractable roof, that rocks late into the night!! So, either way, I know where to Drink, and I know a few Tsing Tao ditributers if you want the local fair, nothing like 2.5 rmb for a 22oz cold one on a hot summer night in Dongguan!!

Yeah, I know the one. That bar is called The Terrace. It has changed recently...well, been updated. Should be alot better now. But, it still rocks. That is about 10 minutes from my place as well.

Most of the time I dont drink Tsing Tao because it reminds me of carbonated donkey piss...but, it sure is cheap. You know what I miss? The Kronik by Lagunitas. Also, all the Oregon beers....mmmm Oregon beers.

We are watching you.

Thats impressive build if i do say so myself. Those proline chisels look real good on there. Ive thought about buyin a set for my ax10, glad to know they grip good. Does the tires have good sidebite too??

Thanks. Much appreciated!

To be honest, I dont have enough real testing to confirm on the sidewall grip..but let me say this...without a dig, and without a proper ESC / motor / radio combination, I find it hard to stay on the lines I want. This means, my tires end up going somewhere unwanted. These tires bite from 360 degrees, and I get wedged, pinned, flipped, stuffed, irritated...well, that is a stretch..but you get the idea.

They work for me. That much is true.

Received a couple more goodies today.

This is the 3Racing CVDs, and next to that is the driveshaft for the 3Racing dig unit. I ordered a Vanquish Hurtz dig, but, wanted to keep the 3Racing style driveshaft, as I already have those mounted. I got this tiny one for about 6 dollars. You can see how big it is next to the stock driveshafts. Both are fully compressed.

KC_JoNeS · 07-16-2010, 09:27 AM

Adding a bit more weaponry to my arsenal. New radio.

KC_JoNeS · 07-17-2010, 09:05 AM

I took Frogger out for an afternoon stroll. I really like my new DX3R. It just feels like I have a little more control.

KC_JoNeS · 07-17-2010, 09:20 PM

I just dropped another 100 bucks on some goodies.

Picked up ANOTHER set of 4 link plates front and rear, as my other ones shipped USPS, and probably lost.
Bought the HD gear set front and rear. Front is 36/14, and the rear is 43/13
Bought lots of little hardware like set screws etc.
Bought ANOTHER skid plate, in case the one I have on order is not the style I am looking to use.

Now, I am just waiting on Santa. Dear Santa, please give me my presents this year. I know I have been naughty, but she said she was 18.
