Long time no speak....

Well, sorry for the drop off in blogs for the last few months.....no excuse really - just been a bit rubbish!



Well, i'm back now and ready to get on with boring you with my RC life. The summer months have been a bit quiet for me - a bit of racing but mainly working in the shop - building the range of products that we carry and making sure we have the lowest prices.



A lot of people (mainly other model shops) complain that we offer low prices. I never under stand why this is - if the lower price offers a better deal to the end consumer with still enough money being made to build the business, then why not lower the prices? In the end more people will be able to afford to get into the hobby which is better for everyone. Can't quite seen other peoples logic at times!



The last couple of months have been the months of the monster trucks! The Traxxas T-Maxx 3.3 RTR has been flying off the shelves and it's not hard to see why - rugged construction, two speed gearbox and also forward and reverse as standard leaves not a lot to be desired. Just on stock is the Traxxas Rustler VXL truck - this is a Lipo powered brushless affair that can top 70 MPH! Not so long ago the world record for electric cars was only around the 100mph mark! Insanity!


Since I last published - Rob who works for me has become a Dad. Him and his Missus have had a little boy and called him Finn. Rob now spends more time at work than ever trying to avoid changing nappies! heh heh.... Finn has not learnt how to hold a transmitter yet, but knowing Rob it wont be long!

Anyways, got to go and do some work, but i'll be back more often now with more goings on and gossip!

See ya later!
