Hey BigDaddy-  Jeff and I were Heavy into R/C for years, keeping up with the technology about broke us ...LOL.
We were sponsered by Wynns and local hobby shops, raced from Ft. Pierce to Ft. Lauderdale.  We were thinking about getting a load of clay out at our camp and draging our stuff out.  We also did some indoor racing at the skating rinks.
I had fun painting the bodies, have to paint them backwards  [smiley=Wacko.gif] details first.  I miss it sometimes....untill I get on my bike and RIDE

hey didnt think i would get that much replies on the topoc. ya rc cars are awesome i had a eltric one but it still ran with the motor ones not like a cheap one from wal mart i loved hitting jumps with that thing lol

I have to agree the r/c trucks are great, and they are very expensive to maintain but well worth it.

I play baseball, go to the gym as often as possible, and work, not much else to do, racing cars, racing quads. lol

Here are some pics of our savages.  the pics are from my nextel so excuse the quality

Mine(HPI Savage .25 PullStart, 7" UFO wheels with Psycho Tires, Aluminum Suspension, Blue Shocks, Tuned Pipe, Dual Disk Break upgrade. 4spider gear diff upgrade. high flow air filter. White 1500HD Crew Cab Body to match my real truck.)

Mine next to my brothers with stock tire/wheels and most of the same upgrades as me, just different color suspension.

close up of my brothers

Close up of mine

these things have 4wheel independent suspension and this tire is on top of a 12oz can with the other 3 tires touching the ground, talk about articulation!

another shot of can

love to mess with those little electric rc cars.

[bigscrub79]

The only real difference between the 2 is i set my ride height lower for better handling, other than that and the tires they are pretty much the same.

Let's see, I have many, just not enough time to enjoy them all. Riding quads with my son and friends is first. Boating, fishing, hunting, camping, driving my rc truck and car. Been into rc for years, a rc10 first, the old one with the gold aluminum frame with many upgrades. Then got the new one, a b3, now they have the b4. Then I got a savage, and have spent way to much on it, but when stuf breaks I upgrade to delay another breakdown of same. My son and I love to race together.
Spending time with my kids and friends is my favorite though.
