Monster Truck Madness – Happy Holidays Edition
Hey of us, Happy Thursday!
We are about to move into a really lengthy weekend, or a minimum of I’m, as I’m going to be off from tonight via January 2nd.
I’m soooo wanting ahead to each the vacations AND day off. It’ll be some a lot wanted time to get behind my work bench!
I’ve bought a Tamiya Konghead that’s not going to construct itself. I’ve bought two Axial SMT10 based mostly monster vehicles that desperately want a twin motor equipment added to them. I’ve bought a Losi Mini LMT that wants customizing.
Ok, I lied on that final one. While I don’t have a Mini LMT but, I did get to see one in particular person at my native interest store. They look very cool!
They are literally greater in particular person than I believed they’d be. I believe Losi bought the size proper because it’s sufficiently small to be a mini monster truck, but it surely’s bigger than the 1/24-ish mini monster vehicles that are too small for my tastes.
I’ve bought one on backorder via the Horizon Hobby web site, which is estimated to ship in early February. That’s a superb timeframe for me, as from what I’m listening to via the grapevine this would be the window through which we begin seeing plenty of aftermarket hop-ups come out for it. And for me, that’s going to be plenty of the enjoyable of this small rig- the customization.
So till then, I wait. I’ve bought loads to do within the meantime, although!
Next week I’d like to do a big version of the monster mailbag, so in case you have any questions for me now’s the time to ship ’em – doug @ bigsquidrc.com.
I’m additionally hoping that Santa brings me just a few new toys- I do know I’ve some on my checklist! Assuming I used to be a superb boy, I’ll exhibit a few of my haul as effectively throughout subsequent week’s weblog.
Until then, I hope you all have an exquisite weekend. Happy Holidays!
