how many normal RC-er's carry 7 motors around?!
quite a lot of people, if they race, or go to a track.

a mate of mine used to have about 20 Trinity revenge of the monsters / CO27's in his pit bag

i only have silver and black cans.
Black cans in all my cars,
and silver cans, which i seem to kill every time i use my rally car lol
wow how do you kill a silvercan? see i'd probably fill that motor case with silver and black cans!

you let me rally it lol

Sweet. Bunch of cool releases this time around! I really love the CR-01 crawler, but the Pajero is also pretty awesome.

These may already have been posted, all I did was play with some color balancing, nothing spectacular.
Terrible source quality, but still fun to check out.

Suspension is pretty unique. Shocks are separate from coil springs. Kinda like the old Land Rovers.

Looks like we are getting a tri-axle RC trailer, although it's probably one of those European based ones....

Hmm, did you post a pic TEX?? didn't show up, maybe I'm just having troubles.

When did you get the Hotshot, and how heavy is the center driveshaft?? I've been looking at it, but I haven't pulled the trigger *just* yet.

I did, it's a Red Reedy modified. Figured it would be a fitting color since the Shot is red. I'll let you know when I get the kit. Got it off eBay last week for $149.

Heh that's why I got the Tekin R1 pro in the first place. Mounting the GTB would be a huge effort.

The World's edition just include some hop ups and the new body for brushless. No fundamental differences.
