I am trying to get full size rigs fixed. Dakota is down, hard to find part failed. Bronco is operational and being driven daily, but I losing 1qt of oil out the front main every 150 miles. I wish I had a decent garage.

My garage is full of bikes (and other junk) or I'd offer it to ya!

I just bought a Traxxas Bandit, and I cleaned up my scaler, so I'm ready to go again. I haven't touched rc cars in roughly a year, hopefully the game hasn't changed much so my knowledge will still be decent...

I'm waiting for snow so I can build a little snow track in my backyard for my Bandit

what sort of bikes are we talking about?

Got the Dakota up and going, played hooky the last two days. Spent yesterday in a salvage yard and today putting it back together.

Bronco lost the top radiator hose Monday morning so I had to fix that first. Making plans to fix this oil leak issue and may have found a 351w to build up for it.

Hey, I've seen that white bike.

I've been getting into rc things that fly recently. I built a couple foam board airplanes from free plans from flitetest.com.

Airplanes are a lot cheaper than crawlers and scalers, with $10 motors, $12 esc's and $3 servos. I have $30 into my current plane (minus the $60 flysky t6). I tend to crash a lot though.

been thinking about a twin Stick for Scrapheap. I think I am just going to pull the 302 out of the Bronco and reseal it. I think it is actually a really good motor and my run-ability issues are the computer taking a crap. Starting to question if I am even going to need a 4x4 for this winter LOL.

The white bike has changed alot (more) it's great And, no offense, but I can't do planes... I just don't have the attraction I guess

Why do you need a 4X4 in Kansas? I grew up in Adirondacks in upstate NY without 4X4 and never got stuck. Of course, when we got a lot of sow (over 24"), I would take the snowmobile to town.
