Vaterra 1972 Chevrolet K10 Ascender Pickup from Horizon Hobb…

THE Cub Report- Winter Is Coming
Just like in “A Game Of Thrones”, Winter Is Coming, it is inevitable. The question is, what are you going to do? For the racing crowd, winter is easy. It means you put away your 8th scale nitro burner and head to the nearest indoor track to race 1/10th scale buggy. For bashers, things aren’t so cut and dried. Bashers won’t [...]
ARRMA Nero Big Rock Review

ASK Cubby- A Day Late, A Dollar Short
“Remote Control Tackling Dummy Cubby Seeing if you and the guys at Big Squid have seen the Mobile Virtual Player (MVP) tackling dummy.

THE Trump Report – Version 10.17.2016
Regardless of what the title to this week’s Cub Report may read, I am not voting for Trump. Yes, the title is simply click bait of the worst kind and I should be ashamed of myself (but of course I am not). So who will I be pulling the trigger for on November 8th? That would be… wait for it… [...]
