My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-10-2008 Well these little turds are addicting! Me and BJoe are gonna have to race at the next crawler comp with our Micro DT's! Game on Joe!! hehe Me and a buddy are gonna build a Bristol type high banked oval with slick corners so they'll slide thru the turns! I'll update that when we git-r-done! LMK Joe ya ready to race em? Anyone else have any of these? :joy: Matt My new micro's - AddictedtoNITRO - 02-10-2008 you hit the lotto or somtin? geesh. btw what'd that dude ever do bout the muti? probably nothin huh. outta thump him My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-10-2008 Nope I wish I did! Sold my NTC3 and had a gift cert for leisure hours! Yep, sent me the engine back to me, tryin to sell it so I can get some $$ for ya! My new micro's - BJoe - 02-12-2008 Bring it on Matt :racing::wavey::headbang: BTW the candy blue MDT looks good de-caled too, you going to do the same with the T? My new micro's - BJoe - 02-12-2008 Hate to break it to you Matt, but I'm going to work at the StC store on Saturday so another employee can go to the auto show with her family so I can't make it to this comp. I did come up with an idea that would be a blast with these little guys though! When I worked at Toy's "R" Us, we carried these sandbox/pool things made by Little Tykes and Step2 that were huge (IIRC somewhere close to 4'x6'x1' on the inside and htere may have been a slide molded into them as well!) that would be perfect for making small transportable courses! Just dump some dirt or clay into one and make hills for an off road course or pack the surface up around the edges of the box for the banking on a dirt or clay oval! My new micro's - Ponch - 02-12-2008 Ok.... what is IIRC stand for? My new micro's - BJoe - 02-12-2008 Just found out that BRP is going to offer a Wedge style body and a Classic Hauler body for the Micro Desert Truck:racing: My new micro's - BJoe - 02-12-2008 Ponch Wrote:Ok.... what is IIRC stand for? If I Remember Correctly My new micro's - BJoe - 02-12-2008 Check this out, the bodys are a bit too narrow but the WB is about right for the MDT, might make a neat late model body Revell 1/32 Snap Pontiac GTO Hard Drive Revell 1/32 Snap '70 Mustang Mach 1 Main Frame Revell 1/32 Snap '69 Camaro Z28 Hacker My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-13-2008 Now that's an idea for a track Joe! Bummer ya can't make the comp!!mash:mash: I've got my BRP dirt oval body coming already! :joy: Should be here by Fri! My buddy has his BRP body already, so we'll figure something out to get together! My buddy bought the lipo battery for his and WOW a ton faster, i've got an Atomic BB motor today for mine, now just need the lipo battery!! My new micro's - BJoe - 02-13-2008 Thanks Matt, looks like those pools are no longer available, but my be worth looking at a garage sale if passing by. Bought a version of the GTO body to try, haven't drilled any holes yet and it'll need a Micro Baja rear mount though..... My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-14-2008 That's sweet Joe can't wait to see it mounted!! :joy: My new micro's - Jetboat - 02-14-2008 if you want a cool portable course, why not either build a mock slotcar track out of 1/4 luan or, take some foam board, carve out some different terrain and coat it with epoxy (not fiberglass it will eat it). You could throw some sand in the resin while its wet for traction/realism. I have been avoiding buying 1 because you know as soon as I do Ill build something like that and I dont have the room.

Yep I know what ya mean. You buy one, hobbytown will have to make room for you to build a micro track then!? LMAO I've been thinkin up ways of building different tracks too! My head hurts now! mash: My new micro's - Jetboat - 02-14-2008 what you need to do is get a micro "league" together. Then everyone could chip in and build a sectional course that each member could take a piece home to "play" with. Then when you have meetings/events everyone brings all the pieces and you have 1 huge layout. (I need a basement or huge garage) My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-15-2008 That's a good idea! Eh i'll just build my Bristol style oval on a 4x8 sheet of plywood and then it's portable! lol My new micro's - BJoe - 02-16-2008 Needs the Street Meats though......... My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-16-2008 All I see Joe is a red X no pic? My new micro's - BJoe - 02-16-2008 I had to redo the pic, came up Avitar sized. Here's a profile My new micro's - bubbaracing - 02-16-2008 Sweeeet! Street tires for sure! My new micro's - BJoe - 02-16-2008 Wish they wouldn't have disco'd the '55 Chevy kit though, that would have fit a whole lot better! Good thing I still have one laying around here..............................................somewhere |
