johnnybv January 14, 2011 Share January 14, 2011 We have 10 acres to play on, if you have an R/C (Radio Control) vehicle that can run on dirt, rocks, and bumps bring it up! This Saturday 1/14/11 12:00 nooon at Blue Ribbon Koi. We will be starting around noon, and play as long as we want. It is all dirt, so on road vehicles are not reccomended. I have at least 3 trucks confirmed, the more the merrier! Gas, Nitro, or electric nothing formal just for fun, if we have enough interest we will make it more organized and do some racing! If you are planning on coming just let me know on this thread so I can get an Idea how many people to expect. Spectators are welcome, but will be asked to stay in a "safe" area. I have over 20 years experience with RC cars, boats, planes and helicopters so if you have a problem I might be able to help you sort it out. Oh yeah, I guess I should mention we received 14 boxes of fish, inverts, rock and corals too!!!! Check the stocklist later today for updates.

beatle January 14, 2011 Share January 14, 2011 Wow, I hope you do this again! I won't be able to make it this weekend, but it'd be great to run around with some others, especially once it warms up. I haven't exercised my brushless E-Revo in close to 2 years. Did you know plastic is more brittle when it's cold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwweber January 15, 2011 Share January 15, 2011 lol i did R/C years ago, actually was one of the first people in the D/C area to have a rc10. Back when you could buy a kit without ball bearings with the gold chasis and a resistor speed controll (which got replaces quickly with a Novak) darn wish I could find the person that bought all my old stuff. \ Actually decided to learn to fly R/C helicopters lately, anyone here do that?

I would of course clean it up and make sure it ran before passing it on to anyone. It's one of the origional Revo's, and has received alot of love for it's time.

You are welcome to post specs and pictures in my forum, I think RC is a great hobby and support it greatly. When it warms up a bit we will do this event again, maybe even a few times over the spring and summer. Would Sundays be a better day for you guys? john Edited January 25, 2011 by johnnybv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
