Well, the time has come to continue to simplify my life to focus more on family things and eliminate the deadwood in my life. So, unfortunately, the Mustang project has been sold and the garage has been cleaned out. Hell, I even installed a garage door opener on that side of the garage, and for the first time in 8 years (since I bought this house) I parked MY car in MY side of MY garage… I think i can get used to this!
I will continue to use my R/C hobby as my mechanical outlet, its a HELL of a lot less expensive and I can have my workbench in the basement where it is warm in the winter and cool in the summer – and is something Alex and I can do together!

After running nitro for a while, I have to admit, some of the nuances are getting annoying. It is a pain to tune, keep tuned, replace glow plugs, yada yada yada. Not to mention fuel (nitromethane) is $40/gallon!
So I was running the MT2 a few weeks ago, and the motor lets go. OS .18 motor, the truck was a SCREAMER. Unfortunately, even if I had a new motor to put into it, it takes forever to break them in in order to be able to run them… Read the rest of this entry…

There is a ton of stuff that I had to figure out for this build, so I figured it would make sense to put what I found back out there so someone else could be saved the trouble! Please try to patronize the links -they are supporters of one of my favorite websites – www.hpisavageforums.com!
