Nice shop! May I borrow it for my build? :hmmm2:

May I borrow it forever?

Sure I will ship it UPS,FEDEX,DHL,and smaller packages USPS! You want both 5ers too?

After having both knees totally replaced my hobbies have moved from camping and hiking to
more guns and mechanical hobbies.

I still have a 20ft cuddy cabin boat inline 6, just bought a 1999 Honda Foreman 450 S 4x4.

I have RC boats, planes and Traxxas nitro trucks, I want to
teach wrenching and mechanics to my son who is 7 and old enough to start getting grease under his fingernails.

Built from a kit, Stingray two seater go cart, 6.5hp Baja.
I have a 1970's single seat go cart rebuilt with a Tecumseh Power Sport and a
modified Dirt Bug mini bike with a 6.5hp Baja.

The wife wants to get a pontoon boat but I ain't much on small outboards.
They make them with an I/O setup would be what we're looking for.
I want to be able to run at 40-45 mph, not putt around like a grandpa.

Traxxas makes awesome stuff! Thats the only rc i will buy. I bought a kawasaki edition slash 4x4. Love that truck! Tough as hell and parts are cheap. Sucks buyin lipos though.

I was into nitro trucks waaay back when they first came out. Still have one, old school team associated rc10gt......yes that old!! I was 13 when I bought that, holy crap!!.... That's 18 years ago, my how time flies!

Havent ran it for at least 9 years, just sits in the basement collecting dust. But man were they fun! Every year I say I am going to get it out and get it running again, at this point it would be cheaper to buy a new one!

I love the sound of the gas powered ones but just dont want to deal with the maintenance of them. One of my friends is into the rock crawlers. Those are awesome! Too slow for my taste though hehe. Give me a truck and a ramp! Lets fly'em!

I had a traxxas revo 3.3 a few years ago. didnt keep it long. It was fun as hell, but drained my wallet faster than anything ive ever owned.

Sc10 and hpi trucks r were its at , a slash cant hang with em if done right , i know i waxed a whole field with my father in laws sc10 and i had never drove one before

Theyre definitely fun, I thought about getting a starter RC heli for a while. electric at first, then maybe a nitro if I like the hobby.
