Alright! I tried last night posting pics of my workshop to let ya see were all the RC building goes on, but my pics were to large. Some one explain how to reduce the size of the pics, and I will start getting some posted.

Thanks
Tom

They will probably both get done at the same time. He is already driving my F350 around. My son is only 4 but he has been racing with me for a while. He loves it as much as I do. This makes it easier to do these projects. Momma loves us guys having quality time.

I also picked up a piece of Double sided glossy 3.1mm thick 12x24 Carbon Fiber for the two chassis. We should have some left over for other projects too.
