If you didn’t win last night [...]
There was no F1 race last weekend, nor an AMA motocross… and uggghhh it rained enough on Saturday to waterlog every rc track this side of the Mississippi. Normally I’d have considered the weekend an entire loss and confined myself to the man-cave with a bottle of Jonnie Walker green label, but I looked at the brighter side [...]

Welcome to yet another exciting week in our wonderful hobby of rc. 🙂 What was the big rc news last week you might ask? HPI announcing a new gas (not nitro) powered monster truck coming in 2012, that’s what. I guess the obtuse might have just blown right by that PR, but I saw it as the first sign [...]
Hello, I got a quick question. Can the Evader DT take LiPo batteries stock? If so, would I need to install a LVC? Thank you -Jordan Cubby– What’s up Jordan? Is it just me or do we get this question a lot? Well… if it’s getting asked this much I better man up and answer it. Can the Evader DT (same goes for [...]
Speed Passion RS2 ReviewJust how much do you think a ready-to-run brushless 10th scale truck that has a 2.4 GHz radio should cost? Well Speed Passion thinks it should be $159, a LOT less than many of the other manufactures out there. The Traxxas Rustler VXL goes for around $320, and the Associated brushless T4.1 costs around $250. Is the [...]
As DJ Lance Rock likes to say “Hello friends!”, and welcome to more anarchy right here on BSRC. Everyone at the track today just had to ask me, “How was the RC Car Action Magazine RCX show?”. Well… I got to the party late (hitting the doors about 3 pm) so I hear I missed the big crowds. Brian said [...]
Cubby– Before we get to this weeks questions I’d like to post a reminder to please join us this Saturday at the Odium in Chicago for Bash-A-Palooza!

Intro- Who the heck is Electrix and why do they deserve your money? Well, Electrix is Horizons entry level line-up of rc cars, and by entry level I mean you can walk out the door with the Boost completely ready to roll for under $140. But is it worth the cash? Lets jump right in to the worlds most kick [...]
How awesome was it on the racing scene last weekend? There was F1 from Germany, Motocross from Washington state, and the IFMAR worlds from Finland, it just doesn’t get any better than that. Congrats to Lewis “Moons Over My” Hammy for winning the German F1 GP, Ryan Dungey for winning up in Washougal, and Ry-Cav for pwn’ing the best in [...]

Hello core rc’ers, and once again welcome to a another fun-a-licious edition of THE Cub Report. Did ya see Jesse Pinkman wearing a Metal Mulisha t-shirt on Breaking Bad tonight? How core is that? Fantastic episode to begin season 4, I highly recommend. Now for something is that isn’t talked about much in our industry, perhaps one of our industry’s lil’ [...]
Hey Cubby, So what does the BSRC crew have planned for this summer? New vehicles to buy? Exotic vacations anywhere? New tracks or bash spots to visit? As for me, I’ve decided to try something different and out of my comfort zone…..aircraft (gasp!)….specifically helicopters. There seems to be more aircraft rc clubs (airfields included) than car/truck clubs in my area. So that [...]
