While out shoveling snow I figured I would take a few minutes to have a little fun.

My SuperOcean has to be the toughest watch in my collection, this thing is build like a tank.

I used to do a lot of RC stuf.. Nice T-Maxx by the way! I mostly preferred Electric though... small indoor tracks. I do love the nice top speed of the Nitro stuff though, and the longer run times. Electric was just easier to wrench on and I am better with electronics than gas/oil things.

Me too. I was a huge Tamiya fan back in the mid to late 80's. RC cars like the Hotshot, the Boomerang, the Hornet, the Avante - great cars (at the time) and great fun.

Slightly off the thread here, but if I had the cash, this is the one thing that'd get me back into RC stuff. This is ACE!!!!!

There's a HUGE radio controlled B29 on Youtube, as well as a nasty crash of a large scale B52!

The B-29 drops a model of the Bell X-1 too! Very cool!

Here's the BIGGEST: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz4uqvy6wNg&NR=1

Nice clips, Brian!

Do you collect them, or is your fulltime job to hunt them down? ;)
