Hi guys. I enjoy these chats. this is the first part I voted on, have to vote based on your reviews since I haven't driven most of the vehicles, did you guys review the Ruckus? I'm thinking that might be a good truck for my friends 12 year old son, he loves RC but doesn't have a real one yet. Let him drive my HPI Mini Trophy, he loved it

Jeff: speaking of programming, you think you could tweak the forum a bit with some background music?

Fingers crossed this guy in Berwyn pulls it off! Been about a month since I spoke with him. Anyone else get updates?

We did review the Ruckus (here http://www.bigsquidrc.com/electrix-rc-r ... ck-review/ ) He will have a MUCH easier time working on it than the MTT for sure. The ECX stuff has been pretty durable.

LOL, thanks Brian, I made it.
NO TRACK!!!!? That's it, time for you guys to relocate to UTAH, 3 tracks within 2 hours driving distance (unless there's been any changes I dont' know about) 2 indoor, one outdoor, come on guys, you'll love it here.

Basically, the owner was moving to Florida.. and at first he thought he would keep the track running, but then decided he was going to be way to far away to keep a eye on it, and just pulled the plug.  Too bad. I hear it's all gone already.. and they just put up a BSRC banner at the track! Guess we need to start bashing MiniZ's

Technically, there is a track (Leisure Hours) but it's ALL RACING ALL THE TIME, and they aren't fans of us jumping off driver stands and driving the wrong way. The Indiana track let us have free reign, was great for testing vehicles. Gonna have to look into building our own again somewhere/somehow.

Sweet, I'll check it out. I was thinking anything by ECX would be good for a 12 year old getting started in RC. He's crazy about RC. The Parade video is awesome, just like when the WRC cars show off for the crowds before the races, donuts, jumps. Sweet! That Baja truck is freaking awesome! Oh, and I love the new Focus RS body, I'm a focus fanatic, on my second, SVT this time. (full scale)
