      In fact I've got loads of NOS strc parts for Blitz/Firestorm, had totally forgot about them until I read your post above... must have a rummage and see exactly whats lurking at the bottom of the parts box...

      not good mate, glad you fixed yours though. am guessing you are sorting your savage?

    4. DannyP

      DannyP

      Yeah I've stripped it to give it a clean and replace a few bits so thought I'd seal the engine as well. 

  6. Been a while!! it's time to go for a bash!

      Is the SCX10 not really stiff to push as they don't roll around by design?  It's a Crawler after all! :D

      Hi Harvey, well got married and not much else :lol: Hope you are well.

      DannyP

      Thought that would happen for 2 rounds, not 6!

      We all plan out an awesome shell when it's clear. Ide guess most end up rushing and messing it up after the wash tho lol. I definitely do.

      The skill is in hiding the mistakes lol.

      Carbon wrap is very good for that.

    4. DannyP

      DannyP

      Thing is, it wasn't some awesome design. Just splat effect and one colour. Done it loads of times before. Rushed it as I wanted it done before the kids woke up! lol!

      Mine never ever loads the first time, I always have to refresh after it's timed out and then it loads fine, sometimes after I've been browsing different pages for a while it'll do the same thing again, but then works after a refresh, I know it's not cookies or anything becasue my PC recently had a complete reload with a new OS, I've also tried using IE and Chrome, but it does the same on any.
