Odds & Ends pt. 2

Hello Everyone, well it seems to be that I cannot maintain my blog again. Since my last post my 12L4 has got here as well as my 4cell gtb. The 12L4 of course came exactly as described and I am happy with that. Only problem is that the carbon fiber chassis is not sealed as nicely as I wanted to see. It is sealed but I guess I am just way too picky when it comes to that.

As for the 4cell gtb, it turned out to be a lot nicer than I had thought. Only problem I am seeing is that I need a longer positive battery wire. A little thing mainly nothing to much to worry about. With some needed parts for my 12L4, I think I am sitting at about $350.00 totally invested into this 12L4. That is the car, new tires, new body, mini servo, lowered rear pod plates, lowered front arms, shims, new axles(I hate e-clips), extra steering knuckles, 4cell gtb(Not Needed).

The only thing that was not something I needed was the 4cell gtb. Well & ok the body, but if you look at the one it came with you would buy a new one too. The lowered arm and pod plates are not something you need either. It is something suggested to have on a 12L4 to get the most use of your tires that you can. Me of course on a budget, I will get the most use out of those foam tires I can. The axles, shims and knuckles were also my choice, the mini servo is needed.

I guess really for what I have spent so far I could of bought myself a TC5. So on to my next ramble I guess you can say. The guy that I wrote about before that finally got his package. Well he knows I am selling more stuff on ebay. When I list this one item I told him about, he wants to me call him. Guess what this guy lives in New York, wow I guess I am in demand. Well at least on ebay I can sell things not so good when it comes to rctech.net.

The other package I sent that came back before. The guy finally paid me again to ship it and he finally actually picked it up. I told him if he didn't this time I would resell the item and not refund his money. I guess that made him a little nervous or he actually got off his butt. I want to apologize to my readers for the lack of updates. I was having a hard time thinking of what to write about.

I guess if I would of at least started maybe the words would flow out like it did today. Another bit of news I would like to share with everyone. Kenny the manager of Trackside had surgery on Saturday. They removed 2 & 1/2 liters of fluid from around his lungs. He is suppose to be released from the hospital today. Until he recovers he will not be at Trackside giving you crap or ordering anything. My best wishes goes out to Kenny on his road to recovery.

Well I guess for today I am done writing what all I need to say. Next time I will be doing some product reviews and maybe some other things. One of the reviews is on the new JConcepts small racing bag. That is all for now have a great day and enjoy your life everyday.

Peace Aaron(W-W)
