Thunder Tiger Outlaw Jr. Brushless Boat
Both Bill and I were pretty sold on the Aquacraft Minimono when we showed it at the end of July, but now Thunder Tiger has something a little bit bigger with their new Outlaw Jr. Brushless RTR Boat.

THE Cub Report- 08.29.2011- Version: $52,000 Challenger Joyr…
Yes, I’m just like most of you guys, there simply isn’t enough time in the day (or days in the week). I spent the first part of the weekend trying to escape from Hurricane Irene. Then I hauled butt back to help out the BSRC bash crew on our latest shootout. Then of course I had to catch [...]
Evan’s 5 Minutes…on Falling WAY Behind!
Hey Squid Fans! It’s time for another five minutes with yours truly. I’m actually 2 weeks behind, so I guess this should technically be Evan’s 10 Minutes…but I digress. I’ve had some things going on personally that have prevented me from pulling my weight here at BSRC lately, but I’m hoping that these things are wrapping up [...]
