Got asked to help at a nitro test and tune. Weather kinda sucked, so turnout wasn't as much as we figured. But still had people and had a good time.

got the jato ready

guy at the lhs came out and said i think this will ride on the twin and sure enough, its hands were shaped just right to hang on the cage. lol

Funny how those 1/5th scales never look too big until you put them in perspective.

^^^^^^
That is true, you can shoot pics of different cars all day long, but they look the same size in pics most of the time. But you put 2 different scales in the same pic, and it does put things in perspective. See The ofna buggy there? still one of my favorite nitros to play with.

Ha, didn't even notice it. Honestly that's one of the few I regret getting rid of.
