February 4th, 2012
Kevin We received this kit from Trick Parts for review and installation. They offer several Stainless Steel screw kits for various vehicles. This one in particular is for the Team Associated SC10 2wd Short Course Truck. Why upgrade to stainless steel screws you ask? Well, they won’t rust or corrode like regular steel screws included in [...]
Traxxas Slash 2wd LCG Chassis Shootout
December 30th, 2011
Matt The 2wd Traxxas Slash. TQ and A Main winner. Nope, I’m not off my meds. It is a legitimate possibility. Over the past few months, we’ve noticed how popular our 2WD Short Course Shootout was. We’ve been contemplating on how to give Traxxas some redemption. The Slash is, after all, the one that started the [...]
Cow RC Flat Mats Review
December 21st, 2011
Matt When we first started using the Cow RC Screw Catcher Work Mats, we couldn’t get enough. They are perfect for building a kit, or working on your RC. In the past, when you would drop a screw on the table, it would bounce onto the floor. Good luck finding it. With the Screw Catcher Mat [...]

Axial SCX10 Trail Honcho Kit review
November 20th, 2011
Matt For those that missed our initial build of this truck, click here. I’ve never owned an RC like the Axial SCX10 Trail Honcho. Everything up until now has been specifically geared towards racing. Always searching for more speed, finding a way to shave a few tenths of a second off of a lap. When driving [...]
Tamiya CR-01 Land Cruiser Review
October 26th, 2011
Kevin The Tamiya CR-01 Land Cruiser was a fun kit build. What’s more fun you ask? Running it! Tamiya really did their homework when it came to engineering this kit. It’s got diffs that lock without taking the axles apart, cantilever suspension, super detailed body, and great fit and finish. The CR-01 is in a class [...]

September 18th, 2011
Kevin Are you bored by your current radio? Does it seem dull? Tired of having the same looking radio as everyone else? I was.. I bought a used Spektrum DX3R transmitter a few months ago and love it. It already had a black anodized aluminum wheel from Dynamite on it. I think that was a great [...]
