In a hostile confrontation with a belligerent nail gun, Rob sustained an injury to his left thumb. 

Moments before the mêlée began.

Yeowch.  That smarts.

Sorry, Rob.  Out of suckers.

The doctor says he should be off IV fluids and back to solid foods by New Years.  While we wait, here are some pics of our new shop...

You think the last four words of the National Anthem are "Gentleman start your engines!"....

You name your twin boys Jack Daniel & Jim Beam....

You regularly see kinfolk on "America's Most Wanted." ....

If the earrings you gave your wife for Christmas double as fishing lures.....

Your kids trip over the Christmas lights while hunting for Easter eggs......

 You've ever cut your grass and found a car......

You go Christmas shopping for your mom, sister, and girlfriend, and you only need to buy one gift.......

You own a Waffle House credit card....

However, if you look like this, there is no question about it, YOU ARE A REDNECK!

John Shanklin, the AtomicMods Operations Manager sports his (temporary) new look.

We updated the site with a huge new shipment of Atomic parts today, though there are several very popular parts that are not currently in production.  So if you see something still out of stock, chances are, it is currently unavailable from the manufacturer.

There is still a big chunk of the country that is still reachable by Christmas via UPS Ground, if the order is placed by 2:00 PM CST today!  See the map.  If your shipping address is green (3 days), light brown (2 days), or yellow-ish (1 day), UPS Ground is still an option.  Otherwise, you can choose an expedited shipping or take your chances with the US Postal Service.

Carbon fiber is so light.  Seriously.  This new chassis is half the weight of the titanium version and 20% lighter than the aluminum version.  Just like its aluminum and titanium brethren, it will accomodate all XMOD Evo car bodies. 

There are lots of knockoffs of this chassis on Ebay.  Some even claim they are AtomicMods-produced.  Let it be known, we are not marketing this chassis on Ebay.  If you see this chassis on Ebay, it is a fake at worst, or used at best.

It's not quite a White Christmas, but we'll take it!  It snowed up to 3" in some spots in Southeast Texas last night.  I know you folks up north are rolling your eyes, but this only happens once every few years here in Houston.
