That Tourney of Beasts
As crazy as it sounds, I’m just a fan. I am predicting the OS25 vs That Roma in a wild and willy show-down. Dark horses are the Bonito and Ninja (which could wipe the floor with everything). I just don’t know. Then we have that Virtus I know nothing about other than recommendations from peopleContinueContinue reading “That Tourney of Beasts”

Hyper 7 Center Diff: Green-lighted
So I recently picked up another center diff for my Hyper 7 (standard diff). It’s been at least 4-5 years since I held a stock Hyper center diff in my hands, and even then the last one was a Spider diff and before that Torsen….so it’s obviously been sometime since I held this in myContinueContinue reading “Hyper 7 Center Diff: Green-lighted”

For some unfortunate reason, I have amassed an abundant of RC items such as engines, pipes, servos, etc. However. the one component I have tried more so than any other are clutch components. To the point I’ll often struggle to find some I have NOT owned. Off the top of my head it would beContinueContinue reading “Do you need a New Clutch?”
