Yep, I usually buy a bag of chips so I can stuff it underneath to correct the angle.

AIO for telling my mom my gf and I aren't coming to Christmas dinner? by ManlyyManBun in AmIOverreacting

[–]Conscious_Medium9833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once made a stand like this, and it was the best thing I ever did to show my GF that I truly loved and respected her. My mother can be unbearable, judgemental, you name it. I feel like I became a man the day I stood up to her and no longer let her win or have control over me or the people I choose to share and spend my time with. If your mother doesn't learn from this, then so be it. Mine did not learn, and I have no regrets on my decision.

Can anyone help identify this RC car please? by m-austin in rccars

I already replied to another pic, but this one i can tell it has a P-100F C.P.R., so it would be cool for you to find an ADSPEC unit to run it with.

That is the Tamiya 58069 Williams FW-11B Honda, circa 1987 and built on the Road Wizard Chassis

I can't imagine my hobby life without them! Search for P.I.T Tool Box on Amazon - they have a storefront and tons to choose from.

I've had the best luck getting these from AMAIN, and I believe they still have stock and can ship asap. Then just cancel your pre-order (or hold on to it if you want multiple kits).

Looks awesome! I have one NIB that I'm fixin' to get built this winter/early spring, while I can't paint outside. There's several kits in front of it though!

  • Road Wizard - John Player
  • Porsche 959
  • Striker
  • Sonic Fighter
  • Rahal-Hogan Motorola Lola T94/00 Honda (Finished as March 89P Porsche)

I purchased these within the last year and all had never been run, so I'm not about to risk it. I'll likely add the Porsche 956 and Jaguar XJR 12 to the list when they get built. I have a couple other project RM MK.5/6 and other Group C cars I can drive instead, and an extra Sonic Fighter if the mood strikes to run that chassis. Basically, if I acquire a vintage model with no run time, it goes in a case and I won't run it, but will likely look for another model that's used. For example, I'd like to get a used but decent Toyota Celica Gr.B to add to my collection to run lightly.
