Hola amigo’s, I hope you were lucky enough to watch (or DVR) the live first moto’s from Hangtown on FuelTV last weekend. The first “lites” moto might possibly have been one of the best in moto history as Monster/Kawi/PC/Traxxas rider Blake Baggett caught and passed world champ Ken Roczen AND “Bam Bam” Barcia on the last lap to take [...]

Ton is one of the dudes from the Auction Hunters show on Spike TV, and is also a serious RC guy off camera. If that wasn’t [...]

Actually, all trade shows of every sort were thought to be on the edge of extinction, and why shouldn’t they? The web [...]

No F1 plus no Supercross equals one very long and boring weekend. Sigh. I mean the Easter Bunny is cool and all, but he’s no Kimi or Reed, just say’n… And… wait for it, wait for it… Cubby’s RC Wheel of Doom lands squarely on Associated this week. Seriously, I am a longgg time gnar/core AE fan, but wow, [...]
