Default A Honcho Finds the Thin Ice!

This is a video reminder of everyone to enjoy the winter times, especially with your RC car in particular! I had a chance to go do a bit of crawling at a local spot (Glendale Shoals) while we had some freezing temps this week. Managed to find a nice little ice chunk to do some drifting & other shenanigans on. Had way too much fun and then had a little accident with some thin ice and late brake reaction. The Honcho was saved and resurrected from the dead, all is working fine thankfully. Remember to have fun, but not only be safe out there!

The drift from 47- 57 seconds is perfect.....I don't think you could've gotten any closer to the camera. Bad ass!

Thanks Goat, I had a few other clips that were pretty badass as well, but wasn't able to make the cut with all the frost/ice on the lens! Reaching into that cold water about 2-3ft got my attention rather fast, and made me realize not to do this again haha.

Excellent video! You should attach an emergency cork onto the end of a lighter leash to use as a buoy as much as that thing swims! Haha

HAHA this is ingenious, especially coming from the 2 guys who showed up at an event awhile back sporting the lighter leashes! Now to find a reasonable sized cork that has something to do with a scale item...
