Drift!

 

Tamiya's had some ok pavement and carpet cars over the years, but other than the 2 original buggy's (Sand Scorcher, and the Rough Rider) that they had, and the Frog, I can't think of anything they have made that has been even mildly competitive on a off-road track once Associated hit the scene with the RC10. I honestly haven't been paying much attention to the races the last year or so, but with electrics usually Losi or Associated are occupying the top 10 or better spots when I read the results for the nationals. OFNA has always made a great car, lots of power and impressive handling. The local track here is hardly ever running races anymore, so I'm thinking about just getting a HPI Savage to mess around with on my property. I'd build a decent track if I could get enough people to show up and race, but most of the people that might be interested, and that have something worth racing live 40 or so miles away.

 

Time share executive jet. It's mine for 4 weeks every year...

 

not a bad deal. my stepdad and a few of his neighbors had considered purchasing something similar to share. he decided to back out after a bit of thought, and realizing he was the only one who could fly it. he didn't want to play taxi driver.


thats what, a 1978 501 I/SP? my dads friend has one of those, '77 if i remember right.

 

lol, ur actually time sharing a jet! isnt that like 20+k a year lol?

 

beats having to mess with the TSA morans.

 

It's always more fun when you're NOT paying for it...

 

Mr. Hammond, i mean lww, having access to a jet doesnt supprise me. And the fact that he really didnt spare ANY expense, at all, isnt supprising either. Its really the only way to do it. Kudos my friend, kudos.

 

sooooo im guessing its bussiness time share

u guys use net jets? and why arent you flying out to see everyone Z's on here. lol.

 

I have a " nitro 4 tec pro " its a bad *** little rc car... LOL it does kick *** !

 

If you can't pre-flight it, take off in it, fly it to a pre-determined destination and then land it... It doesn't count.


Next!





Rod.

 

yup ^^^

and after all that, i want to see full performance charts planned out for a trip, state all your V speeds what they are used for, proper instrument use, setting, tell me all the documents and inspections it needs to be legal their time frames for completion and while your at it the full systems on this plan and its limitations.... And..... GO!

 

Although, I do carry an IFR rating, unfortunately, it's not on that class of aircraft and, at this time in my life, I'm not inclined to spend the time and money necessary to achieve it. I have WAY too many other expensive hobbies and merely keeping my current rating up to date is enough for me, but thanks for the offer guys!

 

well, you gonna come pick me up at yxx? that way i can be at msa 2008 for the weekend, and still make it home for work monday morning!!
