Monster Truck Insanity – Gettin’ After It
Good day everybody and a Glad 2023 to you!
I wound up spending the final two weeks at residence, and given it’s been a very long time since I’ve performed that I had completely forgotten how time sort of simply ceases to be and all days roll into one whereas on a protracted vacation break. It was good getting again to the conventional routine this week!
So, now that we’re formally previous the vacations and into the brand new yr, which means I can look forward to the upcoming racing season. I’ve received a number of monster truck associated tasks to finish.
I’ve determined to lastly retire my Huge Squid Boss professional mod monster truck that’s served me effectively for 4 years now. This truck was constructed on an early Absolute Chaos RC Havoc chassis and has been one among my favourite vehicles to drive. In it’s place goes to be the newest (and final!) gen of ACRC shaft truck chassis, the Havoc 3D. This chassis has much more room and permits for a distinct electronics and battery configuration to get the CG low.
I picked up one other JConcepts Snoop Nostril physique to make use of for the truck, however I’m undecided what identification I’m going to run on it, but. I’m trying ahead to choosing up my airbrush for the primary time in a yr, although!
I’ll do a full write up on the construct as soon as it’s full within the subsequent month or so.
I’ve received plans to replace my FMS Smasher with a warmer motor, a brand new lexan physique and a few JConcepts 1/24 Golden Years. I plan to make it a mini-Rotten Apple.
I’ve received my Traxxas TRX-4 Excessive Path ready to obtain a lightweight bar as quickly as they’re in inventory. I LOVE the old fashioned look of this stuff, and may’t wait to get one.
Whereas we’re speaking in regards to the Excessive Path, over the vacations Traxxas introduced a number of numerous colour updates. I’ve seen a blue one in particular person and MAN they’re sizzling. Nice transfer by Traxxas as I feel the Excessive Path has been a giant hit for them. I am keen on mine!
After which the subsequent factor I’m seeking to do is rating a big Cross RC BC8, which having lately seen one in particular person is among the neatest r/c automobiles I’ve ever laid eyes on. Sure, that one is gonna REALLY damage the ol’ piggy financial institution, however I’m GOING to get one among these beasts. They’re unbelievable!
And there’s my rapid plans, people. Very first thing first is getting the brand new Professional-Mod monster constructed. Particulars on it quickly!
Till subsequent time, hold it on all 4’s!
