Oh yes race fans, Formula 1 season is underway. If you’ve read THE Cub Report for any length of time, you already know I am a huge F1 fan. In recent years, I’ve been rather quiet about F1 though, strictly because even I was tired of knowing the results before the races even started. However… 2017 looks like a whole [...]
“RC Driver Cubby, What’s going on with RC Driver? Are they really going out of business? Is that what the Cub report was about this week? Inquiring minds want to know!

“Battery Charger Hey Cubby, I’ve been into the hobby for about a year now and I was looking to get a better battery charger. I currently have a Dynamite Prophet Sport Plus and it has worked well for my purposes but at this point I have multiple batteries and don’t wish to sit around for 3 to 4 hours to charge all [...]

“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 [...]
Well howdy there all you rc fanatics, I hope you had unseasonably warm temps over the weekend to get your bash on. Locally we’ve been truly blessed with insanely warm weather, perfect for allowing us to gather up our Bash Crew to flog our personal trucks. First up this week is a mention about our upcoming “March Bashness” contest. Oh yes, [...]
“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 [...]
Hello there rc fans, welcome to another Cub Report. What is THE Cub Report? Mostly rambling, mostly (but not all) about rc, mostly smack talk, but always a good way to blow 15 minutes. While I would love to go on yet another epic rant, there were some interesting product releases last week that I would like to talk about. IMO the [...]
“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?

“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, [...]
Hello one and all, I hope you all had a great weekend out bashing with your friends. Welcome to yet another week in the hobby and to another funtabulous Cub Report.

“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 [...]
