@Jack Reacher I was a bit of a jack of all trades, but mostly Product Specialist / Marketing assistant with a little customer service still (I did that for 4 years before moving to marketing) for a distributor of audio products (mostly headphones). I was writing blog articles, shooting and editing youtube reviews, managing their social media...
Luckily I have quite a few skills so shouldn't be too difficult - already had a friend who works at another similar company reach out to see if they can help. -
I appreciate everyones situation is different, and its a very stressful and worrying time, but redundancy was the best thing to ever happen to me. Good luck, and regardless of all the stigma, negative press etc, make sure you look into any help you can get, Universal Credit etc. Youve been paying into the system for years, use it if you qualify/need it

My Chemical Romance have announced a reunion gig in LA in December... Now fingers crossed for a proper tour too 😁

Well that's another SCX10 II Raw Builders kit ordered, replacing the RTR Deadbolt with higher spec and the other half can build it and have the colours she wants

Having a variety of different forums with different members is only good for the hobby. Chill and enjoy the hobby, find whichever platform you enjoy the most.

We should all just get real cars and girlfriends....

Very sad to hear about Chester Bennington taking his own life, Linkin Park were a major part of my young teen years, may he rest in peace.

He was a great. He could do some high skips with his voice then crack it. Even live. Plus hes one of the best at pain in the voice.
Soft smooth blasting faces off.
Totally shocking but it always is. Even my mrs distant family member doing it. I felt gutted for his family and he couldnt see another way. The force once mind set must be something else to actually go through with it.

Thinking of selling the E-Firestorm, not getting much out of RC at the moment, might take a break.

@froggy8 Yeti sold ages ago :/
And I sold an E-Firestorm a while back, but bought another. But It's not getting any use, I still think I prefer the scale crawler side but cannot afford it at the moment.

Well done to the people that made another Tory majority impossible.

Yeah it's bit simplistic to just say tax the rich more, they already do pay more because they buy higher value goods and therefore provide more in VAT, probably spend more on fuel for the gas guzzling showwagons, pay higher council tax etc. Go much higher, they become resident elsewhere, we lose big money into gov coffers and you stifle innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. The biggest problem is everyone wants more, more from the NHS, more from the police, more council services but no one wants to pay more tax. Everyone wants schools to give more, do more and send everyone to uni but no one wants to pay the bills that come with all that.
As I say, no party has all the answers or they'd have been voted in with a massive majority. It would be nice to think labour and cons could form a coalition and pick the best bits of both manifestos but lets face it, that ain't never gonna happen.

There's some SC10 CVD's you might be interested in, in the FS forum. My post got deleted because it was off topic, I tagged you in it...

Well that escalated quickly...

@Bigjimknickers in-ear i would go for the MEE Audio M6 Pro (use the foam tips).
On-ear i would stretch the budget to get the Sennheiser HD-25 II, very fun and have good PRAT (pace, rhythm and timing).

Gig photos from yesterday, was insane! Also I was shooting alongside Chris Casey (Kerrang photographer!)

Seems I am going back to models I once had...
First it was ther E-Firestorm (had a blitz before), and now just bought a ProLine ProMT, which I have had before.
Now I am contemplating selling the E-Firestorm as I don't need 2 x 2WD bashers.

Hi, my name is Oscar,
I am a loser, even by this forums standards!
In my spare time I like to devote 99% of my attention to an inanimate object that will never love me back, while my girlfriend sits and cries in despair.
To add insult to injury, turns out shes better at driving my rc car than I am
But alas, here I am.

Well more upgrades for my blitz are on their way...
