Seriously? (sigh)
Well, my sons B-day was two days ago and my wife and Ipurchased him this toddler RC car. My wife finally unboxed it today while I was finishing some honey do's.
Now, close your eyes......imagine hearing something similar to your tank in a home full of kids.....and your no where near it. Got the image yet? I'm sure your seeing red. That was me.
Anyway, when a toddlers toy sounds strikingly similar to your tank.....it's time to consider an elmod.

Yepper, I still have mixed emotions about this. I mean, I was relieved to see that it wasn't my tank.....yet, highly irritated. I just want to chuck this thing in the fireplace and pretend I never heard this. lol

Were did you get that car. It sounds better then a Heng Long!!!!!!!!!!!! Amplify that sound through a good speaker and I think it might sound decent. Does it just have an idle sound or does it rev up in motion.?

LOL! Good humor is always great with a cup a joe.
Here's another chuckle for ya,
I am constantly having to correct my wife when she calls my tank a "toy."......this did not help my argument one bit.

Funny as hell! My daughter had that car from Target 2yrs ago, before I owned my first HL. I opened it up and cut the speaker wires within 15min of her driving it. All toys should be required to have a volume knob!
