I got the grandson's truck set-up with a mach 26(took the 25 out and installed a 26). And he was doing pretty good for a while. He said this big boulder jumped out in front of him. What can I say. He's learning and he likes bashing the trucks. Thanks Joe

Ouch that doesn't look pretty Joe, were you around when it happened?

Yes, I was there. It was a rock about the size of a washing machine. I heard the pipe come off of the header. And told him to shut it down. Wished I had got it on video. I am working on it now. Almost finished with it. He will be ready in the morning. By the way jt. I am hoping to see Mark this weekend and get me a sts 30 from him. Do you need anything from him while I am there? I will pick it up and ship it to you if you do. Thanks Joe

Yeah that would have made a nice video for the contest, what all was damaged? Decided on the STS .30, nice; there is 2 things you could grab me if you don't mind-[(2)#210505 Dust Protection for .21 - .30 Carburetor]. I am sure Mark will be good to you, be sure to give him my regards and thank him again for me (he treated me very well). Thank you buddy, drop an email some time ;) Thanks JT

I will be sure to get them for you. On his truck, just the frame and a tierod end. And the steering servo. Lucky it was only that. I figure for like $25 more, might as well get the bigger one. Joe

I had the grandson today with me. And tomorrow it will be the granddaughter with her rustler I got for her. I had to get her a truck. Something big for her to have her own truck.
