The next big thing: RC Demo Derby!

[microgoat]

The only in-progress shot I have shows the body without its roof. Basically I stomped an EZ-Foil pan til it was more or less flat, then formed it by hand. That's why it looks like a$$.

Crashaholic does it much better, starting with a piece that's actually flat, and forming the aluminum over a buck. But I guess he cares what it ends up looking like :lol:

 

[sloppy]

are you talkin smack over here to LOL
the front bumper is for todd

i hear harleys has more paint on it now and it looks like a geek squad car

i may bust azz and bring a big rig to

Three more cars are built and due to show up for Saturday's derby.

I'll try to take it easy on 'em :twisted:

i am in the process of building one out of of radio shacker electronics and axles. gunna a light frame around it and then make the panels out of tin also to get the most realistic effect when bashing it up. I gotta get some out here to get into it! so fun cause you only need an old junk rc.

 

[lunchbox]

LOL

Very nice guys. I think you needed 5 more cars out there though.

 

[Abednego]

i'll put pics of mine up soon

 

[slobin3d]

what was wrong with the blue and white one, it never had power?

 

[microgoat]

Lunchbox, yeah, we were supposed to have 2 more cars, but one guy got lost and one had 1:1 car trouble. It was still fun

Aaron, I think his battery false-peaked. Didn't have enough oomph to get moving.

 

[Trikster]

Pretty wild... Going to have to try that.

I believe you are referring to me:lol: Crashaholic is my name over on scale 4x4.

I can't believe I'm just now seeing this! I've been wanting to do a demo since i was a kid! Pretty cool guys. I think I may need to convince some local RC'rs to get one of these together.

Oh and yes my bodies will look much better because i'm crazy like that!

 

[Brainstain]

Can we make an Outlaw heat? I'd be down for that. Hell, I'd drive to OH to crawl and smash with you crazy fackers.

 

[badger]

Damn Stu! You really out did yourself this time. That has to be the cleanest, best looking styrene work you've done to date! "thumbsup"

 

[Racer4Life]

This should be on the things to do at the Scale Nats! There would be plenty of guys that would do it. :lol:

 

[littleskull99]

Reminds me of the last 10th touring race day I went to, LOL

Looks like a lot of fun, hope for more cars next time.
