Inside you’ll find our review of the amazing Element RC Builders Edition GateKeeper. Sure we technically ran it almost a year ago, but it might be […]

AE’s SC8E.2…still in love with the thing!
Short Course Racing is in all scales, and we still think that this 1/8-scale from AE is the most beautiful. It’s scale is almost deadnuts, the performance is nuts, and the durability is like gorilla nuts (Which we assume ...
Mugen MBX6 ECO – A Real Hybrid
Hybrid cars are bridging a technology gap, and the new Mugen MBX6 ECO isn’t. The electric car has been here for years, but this is Mugen’s first step away from Nitro and the result is now in our office. We’ll ...
2 Cars 1 Camera – Photo shoot preview
It’s been over 105-degrees around here, and maybe a few people have started to think that “maybe global warming is going to suck?” This temperature doesn’t stop production on VRC_003, and the photo shoot...

Go-go juice is required for nitro engines and we love Byron fuel. Not just because their people are Mid-West amazing, but their fuel never disappoints. We’ve got some nitro reviews in the works and this fuel will be filli...
Tamiya Bruiser – Legendary
If you’re old enough to remember this truck…you’re old. The Bruiser just landed in our office and it’s headed over to Dave for a build and a review (something special too). We cant’ wait to play wi...
We test with M.I.P.
It’s always nice to do testing, and even more nice to do it with the company. We got a chance to run MIP’s new Pro4mance pack for the Losi Ten SCTE. This upgrade shed weight, moved the weight balanced and played wit...
