      Got to say I agree with you there @Bert_w164 , the Jambo for £368 seems like a decent price though. But not sure if Corally quality is that much better to be honest after watching a few video reviews.

  3. Live ROAR Qualifying 

     

  4. Think the cycle is coming around again, That one were I fall out of interest with RC Cars and move onto something else for a while, Fancy giving Full Suspension Mountain Biking a go, I'm still pretty well built and fit for my age, Could call it a mid life crises, But I'm not into 1:1 cars.

      I've always been into MTB, ever since I bought my first one - a Muddy Fox Courier (anyone remember those?) when I was about 14 yrs old.  But like RC, I go through phases of hardly riding my current bike, a steel hardtail I built up a few years ago, before going head long back into it again and hardly missing a days riding... Go figure. 

       

      What about a decent pre-owned MTB off of ebay or FB, or BikeRadar, Singletrack World etc?  Get more for your hard earned.

      So Mr Dearden contacted him direct and the  love affair is well and truly over ! Now watch all the bitter posts on Facebook and YouTube. There’s an old saying never bite the hand that feeds you ! He should be careful as breaking a NDA could result in a lawsuit if he’s not careful, he has openly admitted to sharing the pic with friends so breaking that trust. Hey but it’s not his fault though 😂😂

      What an emotional wreck this guy is,I couldn’t believe my eyes when he started crying .He needs to give his head a good shake,he’s acting like a big daft spoilt brat.

      I never liked him tbh, always thought he was very self important.

  6. I was just wondering,Dose anyone know whatever happened to the Hyper 9, Was a cool looking buggy with its leaning engine, But was around for 5 minutes  and seemed to just disappear.

      Didn't know they did an E version, I was thinking of the Nitro kit, Seemed to just come and go in a heart beat.

      Had the E version myself, great buggy. Just a shame as there wasn't much room under the hood. There was no drive shaft between the centre and rear diff as the centre sat right at the back end(direct link), but one long one from centre to front.

      I had a Mugen Super Sport Buggy that had the same direct drive to the rear,Don't know why more don't do it,Loose a little weight and loose the slop in the extra drive shaft.

  7. So, Anyone watch Car Share tonight, Someone in the tape department is sitting at home having a right giggle tonight.

     And good on him. 

  8. So, My KMX2 is really just a rolling chassis now, Engine is FUBAR, There's a lot of alloy on it, Do I sell as a rolling chassis, Or do I just split it

    1. Gaz!

      Gaz!

      What are you looking for to replace it?

      To be honest, Not sure if I am, Got 5 cars at the moment, Just need room really as it's a big lump.

  9. I kind of get why you have locked 6ft4crawler thread, But I feel that sometimes threads like this need to run a course, It may not directly have anything to do with the forum, But threads go off in different tangents, Ideas can be offered up, Ideas that can be of help to a forum going forward.

     I spent time writing a reply to Nitroholic which may or may not of helped to the forum going forward, But I now feel I have just wasted my time, And why bother.

     There's no doubt there are some young ones here, But there are many adults as well that can have grown up debates.

     Nothing personal, But locked threads rub me right up the wrong way, Especially when I'm midway through a grown up thought provoking reply.

      If you have any ideas about how the sales forum could be run better, feel free to start a thread in the Feedback forum ?

      The thread had been open for over 12hrs, we could have deleted it last night and swept it under the carpet, we decided to keep it open though. But after discussing it with other staff this morning we decided to lock it, we also PM’d the involved parties at the same time trying to get a resolution to the problem

      For what it's worth, it's immaterial who locked it - the decision was a unilateral one by the mods involved.
