Monster Truck Insanity – Gettin’ After It

Good day everybody and a Glad 2023 to you!

I wound up spending the final two weeks at house, and given it’s been a very long time since I’ve achieved that I had completely forgotten how time type of simply ceases to be and all days roll into one whereas on an extended vacation break. It was good getting again to the conventional routine this week!

So, now that we’re formally previous the vacations and into the brand new 12 months, which means I can sit up for the upcoming racing season. I’ve received a number of monster truck associated initiatives to finish.

I’ve determined to lastly retire my Huge Squid Boss professional mod monster truck that’s served me effectively for 4 years now. This truck was constructed on an early Absolute Chaos RC Havoc chassis and has been one in all my favourite vans to drive. In it’s place goes to be the most recent (and final!) gen of ACRC shaft truck chassis, the Havoc 3D. This chassis has much more room and permits for a unique electronics and battery configuration to get the CG low.

I picked up one other JConcepts Snoop Nostril physique to make use of for the truck, however I’m unsure what identification I’m going to run on it, but. I’m wanting ahead to choosing up my airbrush for the primary time in a 12 months, although!

I’ll do a full write up on the construct as soon as it’s full within the subsequent month or so.

I’ve received plans to replace my FMS Smasher with a warmer motor, a brand new lexan physique and a few JConcepts 1/24 Golden Years. I plan to make it a mini-Rotten Apple.

I’ve received my Traxxas TRX-4 Excessive Path ready to obtain a lightweight bar as quickly as they’re in inventory. I LOVE the old school look of these things, and may’t wait to get one.

Whereas we’re speaking in regards to the Excessive Path, over the vacations Traxxas introduced a number of varied colour updates. I’ve seen a blue one in individual and MAN they’re sizzling. Nice transfer by Traxxas as I believe the Excessive Path has been an enormous hit for them. I like mine!

After which the subsequent factor I’m seeking to do is rating a huge Cross RC BC8, which having not too long ago seen one in individual is among the neatest r/c autos I’ve ever laid eyes on. Sure, that one is gonna REALLY damage the ol’ piggy financial institution, however I’m GOING to get one in all these beasts. They’re unbelievable!

And there’s my speedy plans, of us. Very first thing first is getting the brand new Professional-Mod monster constructed. Particulars on it quickly!

Till subsequent time, preserve it on all 4’s!
