LRP S18 TC TEAM FACTORY

AWESOME! I got myself an MB4 type touring 1/18 scale all pro race grade race. All carbon and alloys upgrade under the hood. No question ask. However i don't have guts to go outdoor run it on the tarmac yet due to open air spur/pinion and fragile looking tyre after experienced several several 1/18 collection i have in the past. Its to much jeweled and bling to see it runing outdoors, should i keep it on the cupboard or should i play with it?
Unlike the off-road version of MB4 this Touring spc have interesting suspension system, i took few hours of my time to dismantel and examine each mechanical parts, its a good experience and knowledge to know these thing as it can also apply to my virtual car design and 3d models which i work on my secondary hobby. The models are much tougher, rigid, solid and have high quality mechanism and performance compare to my old NRX18 and HBX 1/18 tourer.

After lots of thinking and future investment thingy on this models, 2 days later i decided to sell it off to local buyer because i don't think i'm getting back on-road racing again. Off-roading have more kicks in me.

Upgrades here and there.

Thankfully my part-time really takes care of my hooby budget on my radion control. Got few more 3d design project to go and hopefully partial of the funds goes for brushless motor and ESC upgrade for my 1/18 for up coming preparation for local race especially drift event and sprint. Yesterday i bought a new body shell a HONDA CIVIC Type-R for my NRX-18 1/18 and a replacement parts for the motor mount. I called it investment for my hobby later for resale value. The today received my mini-z parts from overseas supplier mainly on drive terrain parts and differential which worn out pretty fast, My days full of active life outside my home at least avoid me from brain dead which reminds me when was the ;ast time i watch television or movie. Man outdoors never knows what is home entertainment. I spent more time hanging out at night with other R/C enthusiast since i already moded my r/c models with lights which makes it fun to drive at night.
