 I'm happy to inform you that we have some RCP Link-N-Rocks on the way to us. If you have seen a shot of our track from the shop cam you'll notice that we've reconfigured it a bit so the infield is wide open. That will be the new home of our RCP pre-fabed rocks!

 In addition to RCP's track products, they are in process of manufacturing modular rocks for the RC crawling industry. The rocks can be used for in store display of RC crawling trucks, in store demo purposes of RC crawling trucks and set up for RC rock crawling competition courses. They can be used in the home, office, hobby store or corporate/trade show event. They are rated for  both indoor and outdoor use and weigh less than 8 lbs per rock pod.

 The rocks are made through a special process that gives the texture a realistic look and feel. The rocks offer excellent grip for all types of RC crawling rubber tires. There's nothing like being able to test out your suspension setup "indoors" before you hit the rocks at the comp!

It's getting harder these days to find XMODS other than the new "Streets" and we've been scouring the net looking for XMODS inventory.  We've come across some very interesting stuff out there!

Some of the more rare items we've come up with are some new (that's right, I said NEW) Gen 1's and EVO Trucks. We are planning on having these up on eBay this week, so keep your eyes peeled!

Here's a shot of just a few items we found.

 Frank thought it would be a good idea for me to film him doing a 2x3 F.E.T. job and pro-ready wires on a XMODS EVO Main board to show everyone how it's done. Now you can see if this is something you would want to attempt on your own, or send it in to the profesionals (Us, of course) to take care of it for you.

 Check out this link and see for yourself!

 We opened up our Kyosho shipment this morning and what did we see?  Some spanking new Product! OK I'm a little more excited than I should be, but check out the new Endless Mitsubishi Lancer Auto Scale body for the Mini-Z AWD MR-010, the Clarion Nissan GT-R Auto Scale body for the MR-02 and the Pearl White Lamborghini Mucielago Ready Set. We have the Clarion GT-R in a ready set as well.

 We should have these up on the site and ready for purchase very soon.

If you've been waiting to upgrade your radio system to a 3 channel 2.4GHz setup because it was too expensive, wait no more!

Spektrum's no-pins, no-interference, no-glitch DSM 2.4GHz technology ignited a revolution among high-end racers. Starting with RF modules, they made it possible to adapt existing pro-style transmitters to this breakthrough technology for dramatically improved performance.

With the Spektrum DX3.0, you'll have a 3-channel system loaded with great programming features combined with built-in, ultra-fast DSM modulation. It couldn't be easier.

You'll never have to select - or wait for - a channel again. Plus, glitching from motors and metal-to-metal "noise" will be a thing of the past.

The third channel on this radio would be perfect for that dig servo on your rock crawler, or the winch on your scale truck. With a price set at $169.99 W/ receiver, why wouldn't you upgrade?

For all of our fans who have been waiting for a new Manhattan to come out...wait no more. It's finally here!  We have taken all the setups and innovation that we have learned this year and applied them to our Version 2. If you look closely you will notice it's a lot like our team car on steroids. I took my time on this build and can tell you first hand, this car is unbelievably fast...

 Fathers day is June 21st, and it's coming up quick! Don't give Dad another tie or coffee mug this year. Wow him with something from our huge selection of Mini-Z's, XMODS, 1/10 Scale Rock Crawlers, or maybe that Battery charger or special R.C. Tool he's been looking for.

 We have such a huge selection of Radio Controlled vehicles, parts and accessories, you're sure to find something for dear old Dad!

Incorporating real engineering elements from full-size rock crawling competition, the 1/10 Comp Crawler represents the pinnacle of RC rock crawling design. Every part, every feature and every inch is designed to mimic real-world competition platforms, resulting in the most advanced 1/10-scale radio control crawler ever developed.

The list of innovations that make the Comp Crawler an RC revolution is long, and it starts with a solid foundation. The Twin Vertical Plate (TVP) chassis with adjustable upper shock mounts offers unbeatable stability and rigidity in a durable, lightweight design. The result is confident handling over any terrain and outstanding suspension articulation. And Team Losi Racing has gone one step further, by offering this innovative crawling chassis pre-built and tuned right out of the box. All you have to do is add the electronics of your choice and paint the included Lexan Grappler Pro body.
