Pro-Line releases more BullDog 2012 bodies! The Team Associated RC8.2E, RC8T, and Kyosho MP9 get released from the pound. A steeper front windshield to create more down force for the front wheels, increased high-speed stability by raising the roof ridges, and changes to the rear of the roof and addition of fins to create a more stable air flow over the [...]
PN Racing has announced they will be releasing a Mini-z Monster sized wheel for the Mini-Z Buggy that requires no adapter. There will also be a new tire and insert. It will be compatible with the original Mini-Z Monster truck tires. I’m digging the thought of a Mini-Z sized Stampede 4×4. I’m not sure how I’ll mount the bodies so [...]
All parts made in Japan, this is a high quality kit for all you 8th scale nitro buggy racers. Release is late April 2012, The TKI 3 version of this Inferno MP9.

A video of the new Kyosho Sandmaster buggy has been released. Perhaps the Euro vibe makes a little more sense across the pond. The most exciting thing to me is this was accompanied by an announcement that it will be released as a RTR as well as “EZ-Build” . The “EZ-Build” is being pushed as a kit that a father and son can assemble [...]
Sometimes people think I’m crazy but I just don’t mind handing over many of my R/C cars to just about anyone. The beauty of this car alone made most people shy away. It wasn’t until I told them it was a review car for Big Squid that they’d take the wheel. Assuring them not to worry if it broke (as [...]
Looks like Kyosho is set to introduce a realistic looking 1:10 buggy for the entry level market under the “EZ-Series” called the Kyosho Sandmaster. Release appears to be around May with a price point under $150. I’m digging the cage and real bead locks. Size will be comparable to an ECX Boost or Traxxas Bandit. #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 [...]

I picked up my personal Kyosho F1 this Saturday during a race at HobbyTown USA in Orland Park, IL. The first impressions by all the Mini-z regulars were how awesome the car looked. The scale looks are very impressive in person. The car comes packed with a clear [...]

Yes, you did indeed survive the holiday season, and for that achievement you are rewarded with the end of mankind- 2012! I hope you use your last days on Earth as wisely as I am going to- sipping incredibly cold Dom, listening to extremely loud music, and jumping rc’s off very tall roof tops! Oh and- writing my [...]
