I don't think Ive ever seen block finish a rally event here in WA.. this last time he rolled it in one of the first stages on the first day.. He can drive, but he's better at marketing.

I ordered one once, but it arrived damaged

Random timing for this topic. Planning on picking up a traxxas slash 1/16" tomorrow for my sons birthday.

Sounds like we made a good choice..

semi-OT.. why is there no such thing as a decent RC car in stores? what the fuck is "new bright."

fucking walmarts.

hows the visibility out the windshield?

My understanding of the deal though, is that spyker was more interested in the loans it was able to get from the swedes for buying saab than it is in saab itself.. ....and I completely agree, atleast in the states, none of saabs models are even close to competitive in their class.. AND i'm one of th...

the key to graphite is to apply it, and then not touch the thing, as its effects wear nearly immediately, IIRC. My boss (and his son) cnc'd a cool one awhile back, but had much better results the next year when they manually made it.. heheh.

every time I see that frank coat, I get the urge to do my subies wheels like that. god damn thats sexy.

I get paid monthly, which requires you to be a bit more active in your money management.. so we started withdrawing a sum of money at the beginning of each month, and dividing it up by the weeks in the month. Before this system, we used to spend several hundred dollars in the first week, and by the ...

I was there, right around the time tad started. He still pops in on nasioc alot, always confuses me.

there is also a process called SLS (think thats what it is called anyways) AND when i was looking into it a local company to me offered to do a batch of 100 using the SLS process (which requires little to no tooling- don't know the specifics...) but when dealing with lower numbers of like under 500...

the parts could logically be machined at a much lower cost given your low quantity, unless i'm missing something.

on the originals, was the plastic molded around the brass? or was the brass placed in after the plastic was finished?

(my son wanted me to use this smiley.)

This is the right idea. Burn the place to the ground man..

Amy thoughts on a mixed 3 Channel a/b and D class. Built in 2way cross over to a full range out to the A/B side for stereo and the low pass to a mono class D. Same thing can generally be accomplished with a 4 channel, and at a much lower cost. Theres obviously some small benefits you're missing out...

Android relies heavily on the google cloud, so I cant really imagine using one without. email, contacts, etc are all tied directly to your google account, and I dont think you have any other option..

still love my g1, just hope it gets some donut love..

Some nice cars in the background there too; I just hope that elise isnt there for an audio install.... Looks like business is good. Great looking install, too..

I also noticed the r60's are on sale for 69.99, which is probably a much better buy. None of the fry's near my location had them available though, and $66 for shipping killed that option. Might have better luck in other areas though. Ive had some time to actually listen to them now, and I have to sa...

Did you account for the curvature of the pumpkin? Would make a neat 4th axis experiment..

Figured id toss this in here.. r300s on sale at frys for 50ea, online only but able to do instore pickup.. picked up a pair and for the price I don't think these can be beat..

I dunno man, they seemed big as hell when I drunkenly held them..

keep in mind, those things are fucking huge. like redonkulously huge.

I had the dell mini-9 for awhile, and i'd recommend staying away from it. poor quality screen and odd keyboard layout were pretty big drawbacks. The newer dell 10" looks to have taken care of at least these two issues, and they're available for pretty cheap in the dell outlet.

yeah, I forgot they run a tmic on those. I like the look of the new ms3 with the hoodscoop though. I guess after subaru copied the look of the ENTIRE ms3 for the new wrx.... mazda can go ahead and borrow the scoop

that grille looks like its begging for the center piece to go away..
