I got my 3D printer working last night!
I printed half a Jerry Can and it worked pretty good... still need a lot of fine tuning.

It looks like the Sally thread is finally dying down.

Sadly, I gave all my cassette's away years ago... and my vhs tapes.

I think I like the lyrics more now that I'm 40 than I did as a teen.
EDIT: Well, I can appreciate them more now...

Anyone up for something like that?
Is this happening or not?

Why is there so little toy truck motivation in NIRC? Seems NIRC is all about real rigs these days.

Jetboat's and the NWITTC comps are coming up.

I plan to make the SCRC comp too.

I think we should start a winter series... Oct/Nov?

I think the NWITTC is Oct 19th. I'll have to check.
The farm comp spot is pretty cool...
What do you need to be ready by then?

Shipped Radio on Tuesday 9-17 and to my surprise it was sitting at my front door today 10 day turnaround and at no charge for service and shipping. That's what I call service. Props to Horizon. One of the best parts is that I did not have to re-bind anything. Let's get out and play!!!!!!!!!

I would like to hitch a ride if that cool?

Do you run 1.9 and 2.2?

Is there a lot of water to worry about?

Little fab work: beef up front end of chassis, chassis side panhard mount, make rear of chassis legal length, figure out an electronics mounting location, and i want to do an interior 6-point roll cage to protect the body from getting crushed by trey's trucks doing belly flops on it.

Im working on it today, hopefully i can get a lot of stuff done on that list.

Nice. I've done nothing the last two weeks. I've been so damn busy, plus work... overworked and underpaid.

Hoping to do some more on my rig next week. Did get the electronics sorted out but am waiting for my FlySky.

I'm up for the 19th tentatively. :(
