Excellent morning. 5k 'run' with the car around burrington combe. Plus, 20 mile round trip on the bike to get to there.

Wanted to be able to drive one handed so knocked up a thumb steer attatchment and printed it last night. Worked flawlessly, but I think I'm going to design one with a pivot point and a bearing.

Trails were sodden! I now need to clean and dry the car off.. I suspect some bearings might not survive. It was mostly submerged a couple of times today.

I'm quite taken by this

Had a similar thing happen with a guy on a motorbike last summer. Was just cruising to the start of a TT and he overtook a van coming the other direction. 2 seconds later I heard a massive crash and knew straight away what it was. He must have been doing 70mph when he hit the car in front, he was a good 30ft from his bike. Assumed he was dead to be honest, but he started moving when I got to him.

Stank of booze and refused help even though he was pouring blood and one of his legs was clearly fucked. I was trying to get him to lay down at the side of the road but he got very aggressive and 'fled' on foot, dragging a leg in slow motion. Helmet was all smashed up

I was too shocked to stop him. It was mental!

I suspect it will all end in tears (prison) for musk.

This guys vids are generally good.

Also, for kids the small radios you get with the 1/24 cars are perfect

If FMS do a 1/10 or 1/8 camel trophy I will 100% buy one

I'm also fairly new to this whole world. But loving it.

It so much cheaper than bikes!

It is indeed an FTX Fury. I also have an FTX tracker. Pretty happy with the FTX brand and my local hobby shop can get the parts really easily.

I went down the cheap route and got burned. I had an MN99, the plastic gears lasted a few weeks before going to mush. Same brand as WPL I believe.

Having said that, I am tempted by the new mn168 as the spec looks a lot better.

I reckon the New FMS camel trophies are a good shout. I've got the k5 blazer and it's great. It's also a sensible size for a child at 1/24th scale .

My 4 year old is sensible enough with my big car so I've taken the risk on buying him the fury. I suspect my ankles are going to get hit fairly often though.

Just booked a holiday to lanzarote. Added an extra bag so I can take a car or two. Plenty of volcanic rock to climb on

A lot of thought gone into that

Looks like great fun!

That's a ban surely? He's consistently a prick.

Hopefully! I'm tempted to put some heavy negative offset wheels on to help the stability for him.

My christmas present to myself is a bigger version...

My sons Christmas present car arrived yesterday. Supposedly used twice, but is absolutely mint. At £83 posted, I'm very happy!

Got some new decals coming, will print him some license plates and add an aerial with a flag.

I really like that body shape.

It was the top of gospel pass a few weeks ago.

Better view and fatter tyres

Not as good as this one.

Excellent morning. Rode over to cheddar gorge which is absolutely full of crawling spots.

Put a few more scratches on the tracker with my ham fisted driving.

I would watch them if they were properly shot and televised.

That is stunning. If I had enough cash, I would 100% have fast gravel bike like that as a 2nd gravel bike

People do indeed. Personally I can't be arsed with the faff of a scale winch. It's easier to just pick it up.

Head torch and car lights along were not quite cutting it. So now have a transmitter mounted light too. You naturally point it at the car so works perfectly.

Did an hour in pitch black woods and it was so much fun

Love the 4 matching 125 year anniversary bikes. I feel like I need that pic on the wall next to mine.
