full bearing/MFU/aluminum wheels

basic purple paint job

I optioned it out and had a blast manuevering it around the house!!

[mikeymagz]

Here is my BONZISports custom 51" Baja:



It has every opt. available from Bonzi. w/custom paint work
Digital tach.
GPS, ...etc.
Stage 4 Mod. on Zeanoh 26cc motor. Dino'd @ 5.5HP. @ 18,400RPM's
(max. you can take this block)
With break-in just completed end of our summer, this summer will be tuning the carb. to RPM/enj. temp. and get MAX. speed out of it!!

For the Record- GPS posted my top-speed(during break-in) @ 58.4MPH!!!!
Can't wait for this summer!!! I gotta see if Bonzi was/is right.... 65-70MPH top speed!! It is real hard cuz the lake I live on is pretty big and usually windy... it took all last summer to find the right day to open this girl up!!

[mikeymagz]

Gotta start a new page to finish it up...... exceeded pic. limit!!



Don't know what happened to the finished pic.s??? (detail & interior)




another build:

was kinda my very 1st attempt @ a scale rig,





This rig was a calamitty of errors!! I laugh now!!

Here is some more of the clan:






my 1st heli:


my 2nd all tricked out(flew like CRAP!!)



my original blackfoot (found NEW on eBay)
No body...... yet?

[mikeymagz]

the rest of my AQUA-HUALIC Flotilla:










Gotta have these when you live on a lake!!!

[mikeymagz]

And now for the racing cars I went all over with!!(Ohio..Maine..VT. Florida.. Mass. Penn. NH. NY. of coarse CT.)

The 1st pic.s are my Favorite class!!!

SK mod.





This is what we traveled in for the big races,





Wanna throw out a "THANKS Dad" !! he was the one who let me and the boys drive his bus all over creation chasing races!!

Note on the last pic.
This pic was taken right after the Florida trip (2010 snowbirds) . I dropped it off to the body shop.
On the way home from an EXCELLENT 10 days of racing a rogue tire smashed into the windshield and tore the mirror right off the bus and scratched the **** out of the pass. side of bus!!
Thank god for insurance & an even MORE understanding father!!!!
Pretty wild but U can't see it in pic. (the windshield glass doesn't have 1 in. of unshattered glass in it!!!)(Pass. 1/2)

[mikeymagz]

Here is my 5B:
(sold a few month's ago)

I had tricked it out pretty good. (all bolt-on stuff)




Built it up in my camper over the summer, then ordered sand tire set, the next day I ran it. Never wound-up mounting or running the sand paddles....

Was a fun buggy, but it attracted to much attention. People were constantly in my line of site And this was NOT something you want to have running into your/their shins!!

[mikeymagz]

I have gone thru all my pic.s and can't find any of my 2nd/3rd rig??

It was a FH12 and a MAN, also the reefer trailer. Built them total out of box stock and now the MAN is with my dad and the reefer trailer. He runs it all around , just playin... and having fun.
The FH12 I did a pretty cool Orange(cheese wiz) and Lime green graphics paint scheme. But otherwise stock.

(wish I knew were the pics were hiding???)

Love the landy and crew cab chevy!

[mikeymagz]

Thanks!!
The Landy is my favorite! but I got to fond of it and most would call it ridiculous... it has never seen outside. Most climbing it's done is anything in the house..... And I got thrown out of the bedroom with it, our Bedroom set is white and the wife says black tire tracks just don't cut it!!
could never bring myself to scratch-up all the aluminum..... (I know.....SKIRT!!)

Nice collection!
I had a Sand Schorcher when it first came out. You did a really nice job on it!

[DieselKid]

Wow, some awesome rides you've got there...I especially like the late model dirt track cars! Have seen a few at the hobby shop but none with such elaborate and realistic paint schemes w/ sponsors, etc. Do they have a lot of 1:1 dirt tracks in your area?

I was to young when they first came out, had my heart on a wild willy... so that is what started me into this "maddness"!! LOL
Willy was about 4-5 yrs. after SS. I now charish the originals and cringe EVERYTIME Tamiya re-releases a kit!!!!

I DEF. LOVE the Sand Scorchers!!! (just bought a orig. SS body NEW on a rough rider chassis(used ...heavily) gonna restore the chassis and just hold on to the body.
