Are we allowed to bring fireworks? :bounce::bounce::bounce:


Oh how we can mess with him! Give him some sleepless nights wondering if the invasion is a good idea:). Hahahah!!

Bumper looks good mark!!

Im already having sleepless nights worrying about making sure I've done all I can ( within reason :) ) to be sure everyone has a great time and wants to come back!:D

Funny you ask about fireworks. Ive always wanted to try using some of those fire crackers ? not sure the proper name for them but, they look like little sticks of dynamite with a fuse and they go bang. I figured might work great to simulate a blast of a bench in the open pit but we cant get them here in Canada anymore.:(
I was going to ask one of you guys to bring some up with you but I would hate to see any of you get in trouble at the border trying to smuggle contra band explosives into the country.:eek::cop:

There is a fire works store just minutes from my place and im sure we can set a few off ( depending on if there's a fire ban on in August ) So I leave it up to you guys if you want to bring your own or just use what's available up here in Canada.

Is that your first 4:1 reduction? If so, you will probably end up with one in every truck, in my opinion one of the best things you can do to these trucks is slow them down. I also like a gear reduction better than a high turned motor and small pinion, seems like you get better control with the gear reduction unit.

Re: bigfords trucks
 
I'm interested to see how the RC4WD GRU does for you and how you like it, hate to say it but I have heard they have a tendency to not last long and lock up. Good luck.

Re: bigfords trucks
