i know im getting RC parts. im just not sure if they are for my losi XXXT or my bolink eliminator.

i also know im getting a few video games. im just not sure what games or for what console. could be NES, SNES, sega genesis, N64, or PS2.

what i want and im keeping my fingers crossed are handlebars for my bike. really been eyeing and begging for a pair of S&M slam bars. they are just out of my price range right now, so the only way im going to get them is for Christmas so...

also want the mothers powercone. cause i am sick of polishing my rims by hand. but i forgot to add it to my list so im probably not getting it.

frankly i prefer to not know what im getting. i work on my Christmas list year round and make it as long and varied as possible so that im surprised. 1:1 car parts? RC car parts? video games? CD's? DVD's? tools? books? miscellaneous? who knows! ill let you know when the hangover wears off

I know I am getting socks and boxers. I look forward to this holiday just because of that hehe I remember hating that when I was a kid though!

i KNOW im getting a bolink/jp speed digger.

cant wait to build it/try it out.

im going to run a (you guessed it) a outrunner brushless system in it, and actually thinking i can run a dual motor setup

cumquat

Dual motors in a digger? Never thought about that... sure makes me want to try it though.

The_Shark

i think it will work with two heli 250 outrunners. should just be a matter of dual esc's and a extra spur hub.

the sound would be sweet

You could probably get some pretty good speed out of it too... you could run really small spurs, those outrunners are torquey.

splcrazy

We do thing a little weird for christmas. My in-laws ussually do Christmas around thanksgiving so that is already over with. My partents live about 8 hours away and they came down the begining of Novemeber for the birth of our second daughter so we just did Christmas with them while they were here. So we still have Dec. 25th left that I will celebrate with my wife and two little girls. From the in-laws I got a new Jammin CRT.5 pro kit which I already have built and running! From my parents we bought a new laptop with the money they gave my wife and I. My wife is going to buy me tools! A 6 inch bench grider, 4 inch vise, Heat gun and a set of calipers! From myself, I bought a used 8ight 2.0 roller for a brushless conversion that should get here sometime this week hopefully! This has been a good holiday season!

Foxy

Top of the range sony video camera, E-Flite Blade mSR with DX5e and sim (get dx6i if I like helis later), possibly a samsung galaxy, no doubt boxers and socks (I like them now too, whereas I didn't as a kid lol)...the rest...no clue.

I know if I don't get the phone for christmas I'll get it for b'day (4th Feb).

Now if that's not a blatant hint Foxy.... (joke)

The_Shark

I make a list, mom goes wth is this and i basically have to order everything...

lg optimus V - Newegg has a crazy deal for my provider so i thought I'd jump on it. - This is the main gift I'm really looking forward to, my current phone is no slacker but its old and i'm tired of but dialing.

With the help of foxy a nice charger, few battery packs, hobby king 2.4ghz radio, lipo charge bag, connectors for esc and batteries.

AE Steel pinion for the car to handle the brushless motor.

A-tech leo X aka venom mini giant which the plan is to take it up several notches to the brushless age.

The_Shark

thats the problem with rc hobbyists, no one knows what to get you so basicly you give them a list.... so impersonal

Well for mine i had it quite clear, basically i had a list of singled out items to pick and choose from. Grab one of these, or this, or that etx and i would of been happy with anything but mom dislikes clicking on links. She rather me write it down so she can look it up herself (because she can find this kind of stuff right?) she even said to just write down the link.... Hmm typing a link vs clicking, i still don't understand this one.

tommygun32

Ha! My wife asked me once what I'd like for Christmas, so I told her. Even happened to be near the LHS so I showed her an OS VZB V-spe .21.

She turnes to me and says, "That's NOT a present!!"

Me, I can't think of anything better than that as a present. I told here, watch my eyes POP if I were to find that under the tree on Xmas morning [X(][&:].

quietnas1

Lol. My wife tells me the same thing, that RC stuff is not a present. So I have no idea what I'm getting.

splcrazy

i got a '60s mustang wall hang, a mustang emblem coat hook, chocolate monopoly, a small kobalt tool kit, a large key-chain multi-tool, a country cd, home alone 2, some baked goods from my aunt (she makes good stuff!) and a few other things i cant remember. i also got an IOU (my mom kept asking what i want but i had no clue until Thursday at which point, she was broke[:@]) for a losi 1/24th scale with some aquarium gravel and wood (use the wood to build a table, cover the table with the gravel and presto; i have a place to run the tiny rc without worry of losing it!)[8D]
