“Cherish and Bash Cubby, I like to cut and paint bodies for my cars. Is it normal I cherish and take a lot of care of them and do everything to prevent them from getting the smallest scratch? (Like folding it in a towel when I go to a bashing spot) The thing is that I do that until the first I drive the [...]
“Clutch problem Cubby, Do you have any idea why I keep breaking clutch springs in my truck? I have now broken 4 springs in less than a month. The clutch shoes look to have normal wear but I can’t keep from breaking the springs. Any ideas? Larry I.” Cubby- Hey ya there Larry, don’t forget to drop me your snail mail for a sticker [...]
“X-Maxx Damn Cubby, your review on the 8S X-Maxx is whack. You scared to criticize Traxxas or what? That thing is expensive, how could you give it a B for value? Barnes S.” Cubby- Yo what’s up Barney? Thanks for the email, don’t forget to shoot me your home mailing address for one of our very trick sticker packs. “My” review of the Traxxas [...]
“Weed, Toke it up article Let me start by saying that I am definitely pro-weed. HOWEVER, c’mon. If you can’t go a couple hours at the track without a bowl, there’s ways of getting your fix without ruining it for everyone else. My kids know i smoke, they know it’s for adults only, and I never, and I mean, [...]
“Traxxas still king, can they save on road? LHS issue Hey Cubby, It’s been a while since a wrote in, but I wanted to share some thoughts. First, the quote “support your LHS (local hobby shop)”. Well, I am not into this hobby to support my local hobby shop. In fact, if it wasn’t for the Internet, I would [...]
“Suggestion/ Thanks First off, awesome website with a ton of usefull info. I recently got back into the rc hobby after about decade. Boy was I surprised when I ripped down the block with brushless for the first time and then promptly “needed” to jump my real car and have my neighbors questioning my sanity as they stood around waiting for [...]

“In need of a very simple, frank answer. Hi cubby, Its me again. This question is impossible to research and Im quite seriously getting depressed about this. This question does not need to get posted or anything Im just looking for a short, sweet, dry answer from someone who can actually answer it. Is our hobby dead? I want to premise this [...]
“Cub Report Question Hey Cubby, I love running my trucks around larger outdoor tracks but am not really into racing. What do you think would be a good basher type tuck to take to a larger track to have some serious fun? I like the new Arrma trucks and the new Losi Rock Rey could be a lot [...]
“300 Bucks To Spend Hey Cubby, I have 300 bucks to spend, what should I buy? Jeremy C.” Cubby- Well hey now Jeremy, thanks a ton for the letter. As you didn’t specify you wanted an rc car, here is my list of fun stuff to buy around $300. 1. A Donald Trump spray tan inauguration party. 2. A Billet Spin Infected Specimen pocket top. 3. [...]
“Rc and Big Squid helped save my life. I just received the t-shirt and stickers you guys sent me. Dam Bro u guys hooked me up. Thank you!! What I mean by rc and you guys helped save my life is this: (short version) I’m 43 and I’m from Pennsylvania. Great family good up bringing i accelerated at sports [...]
“Arrma Outcast Hey Cubby, I gotta say, I’m surprised Big Squid isn’t dripping with material about the Arrma Outcast yet. Sure, it’s just another Losi Muggy formula, but the bash-ability can’t be argued with… nor the manufacturer support… or the durability… or 40mph wheelies across a field on 4S and 16/50 gearing. Sure there is the Tekno MT410 which follows the same [...]

Just want to say thanks because your reviews and [...]

We already have 3 Traxxas RCs: an E-Revo altered to look like a Summit, a Stampede converted out of a Telluride and a Rustler which used to be a Bandit. We cannot agree on which [...]
