Yes, What time are you going?
I have the badges at my house. They sent them in the mail.

Joe...Wanna hook a brotha up? I'll pay for what they cost to you or what you want.....I think it might be cool to hit up the place on the vendors only day.

Planned on being there at 9:00am.

Ok, what neat stuff did I see?

Adam Drake bashing a MicroT
Scott Hughes doing his Marketing job at ProLine's booth.
Mike Czech's Parma touring car body on display
Lots of incredible helicopters (note to self...buy one of those)
Associated's new MGT with a .50 engine!!! beastly
A wicked 1/5 scale race team with trailer and about 10 cars. Be sure to check the F1 car they have with four wheel disk brakes (real hydraulics). Crazy!
TONS of airplanes
House of Kolor booth
Iwata
Great Planes booth was by appointment only!!! huh???
Horizon has airplanes and trucks everywhere.
Test tracks looked cool, but most of the activity was after lunch, and I had to go.
Diecast stuff out the wazoo.

Neat show, just needed more time there.

Thanks Joe!

i didnt paint a body lol?

It's the Alfa...yellow with blue tribal flames on the sides and the ripped CF panel on the roof. The one they covered up the headlights with stickers.

hmmm. .50 engine huh? sounds like thaey dipped into ace's parts bin.. Likely a heli motor, but i could be wong....

prolly one of those TTR motors like the .70 that was in those EK4's

My pictures are here

One for MikeH!!!



Brushless PowerWheels. I'll post the video of this bad boy later

Dave what booth is this for (and what brand of RC cars are those on the race car)?


Also is this part of a RC F-1?

looks like an FG 1/5th scale

The brake system is on a 1/5...might have been FG....their team trailer is in the background of the 1:1 picture. They had the gnarlyist cars and trucks at the show. I'll zoom in on some other shots and get the booth name. You can't miss them...they are right by one of the track setups.

i wish those 1/5th scales were faster, seems like they are so sluggish off the line. the onroads are sweet tho i got to drive one once
