probally i got $80 maybe $100 in cash in my pocket, and then a uhh like $80 paycheck, and $80 on the floor of my room, which is lacking power, so probally, tho i have a feeling i'm gunna blow a bunch of $ at the hobby shop i'm going to monday hurah, i love going to hobby shops, cuz like the one had, they can still order stuff, but its almost easier to just go to tower, but this ones quality, and i'd probally end up driving my dad down anyways, he has a doc apointment near it sooo after were gunna hit it up, i can't wait so yeah hmmm i'll wait a few more than head over to the shop to practice some welding, i havn't ever done the weld that we need to do on our finial so that'd be a good idea, i figured i should learn it, wait scrap that $80-$100, i gotta go spend $30 on a lost library book yeah i think i will, cuz my Am's are giving me crap, and i don't want to deal with programing my SW with analog trims, its a PITA, or that TX just won't prog. with the SW, but yeah i probally will, it looks like a good setup, and for the price very worth it, i may even pick up another RX for that $ one of thiers or from tower which ever is cheaper, so i can use it with a few diff, cars, cuz fm rx's are soo expensive, yet 2.4's are only $30 lolz okay i'll stop typing my thoughts, and head over to the shop, ohh boy indoor sunburns the lug | |

| He would race ya if he had an race car (although he does have an org. rc10). lol
If you both get a 10th scale off-road car to race then you would be able to watch me race at LHR (leisure hours raceway) this winter. By then I should have a job and if so I want to try to go out there at lease every other month. | |

| It could be due to the fact that this is a major chain means they might not get the stuff directly from Trx...it could even be one of those deals where Trx ships it to the Hobby Town warehouse in, oh I don't know...maybe Bangladesh...who then ships it to the distributor in Russia, who then gets the order from your Hobby Town and ships it back. The 50 mile tip becomes 7000 miles and everyone waiting get's to sit on their thumbs until customs allwos the products back into the country. Maybe You should see if there is a factory outlet store, they might have deals on refurbished stuff, or overstocks that would make it worth the 50 mile drive. | |

But other than that it seems like a good idea. ROTFLMAO So true, so true. I had the crazziest race day today (mainly with the last min plan), as the local track had to close the race down before it could be ran due to rain, so then some of us decided to make road tirp to another track that is about an hour way to the south. Some one had the number to the track and called them up and they said that they would wait for us to get there, then we stayed racing until about 11:30pm (eastern). | |

| Sounds like a busy day. All that running around made me realize something. I've been putting off getting a Mini Slash because of the money, but that race day list just made me realize that Ohio Sprint Car Speed Week starts in five days. Seven days of sprint car racing, so $25 X 7 days= $175 just to get in. Four of those nights will be in a motel so 4 X probably $65 (for the cheap rooms) = $260. probably two tanks of gas so 2 X $40= $80. Food for the week, so maybe $12 a day X 7=$84. Add some souvenirs maybe...probably not, maybe a hat or a shirt??? For what I'm going to spend minimum on just watching races next week ($599...crap, I shouldn't have added that up) I could almost buy a Traxxas Summit with a new Lipo. Why did I add that up? | |

| lol side, that is why is it never good to add things up with any hobby as the end total is crazzy high.
Reyzo, I have a rechargeable AA glow ignitors, they work good but the battery will die really fast durring the day so you really need to keep it charged. I like as a back up one a little more. | |
