Did you miss the bash event of the year? Well this time we will show you what you missed, but next time we expect to see you there! Of course I’m talking about the Pro-Line Racing / Big Squid RC Monster Truck A-Palooza! The big highlight of course was the live reveal of the Pro-MT 4×4 truck. We can’t thank [...]
A couple of weeks ago our beautiful spokes-model Ashlie from the Rocky Mountain Hobby Expo made the trip to Las Vegas, Nevada to cover the SEMA car/truck expo. SEMA is the biggest and baddest car show held each year, a place where the aftermarket industry can show off all their latest full sized car & truck goodies to all their [...]
Last weekend our BigSquidRC Bash Crew made the trip to beautiful Denver, Colorado for the first ever Rocky Mountain Hobby Expo. The Rocky Mountain show was put on to showcase rc cars, airplanes, and boats, as well as model railroading and other hobbies. This year the show was two days long, both of which were open and selling to the [...]
The second booth that the BigSquidRC Bash Crew stopped at during the Rocky Mountain Hobby Expo was HRP Distributing. HRP, also known as Hobby Recreation Products, had a large booth and a bunch of new gear at the show. With scale crawling as hot as it is right now, HRP had a bunch of new scale accessories on display. HRP has [...]
To open up our coverage of the 2017 Rocky Mountain Hobby Expo we dropped by the Horizon Hobby booth. The Horizon crew was located right next to our booth and was filled with all the latest and greatest in hobby gear. In addition to a normal style booth, Horizon also had a pretty trick try-me area. The try-me area was set-up [...]
Over the summer we held an AWESOME bash event at the St. Charles Hobby Town. A couple of days later I was on a plane to SoCal and edited a bunch of the photos from the event. I’m guessing it was the airplane food, but apparently the post never went live. This is that post. Huge apologies for the [...]
Last Saturday BigSquidRC hosted a Long Jump Invitational in Champaign Illinois. This has turned into an annual event where our Bash Crew get together and go for truly epic airtime. One of our staffers, Craig Nelson, builds the ramp, then we hit it as hard as we can to see just how far we can make an rc car fly. #gallery-1 [...]
For 2017, once again the St. Louis Dirtburners hosted the annual Futaba Nitro Challenge. The Futaba event is well known as being one of the biggest, and best, nitro races in the United States. This year was no exception as the Dirtburners rc club had designed a great track and made sure the race program went off as smoothly as [...]
Last weekend the BigSquidRC Bash Crew had the pleasure of attending the 2017 Horizon Hobby RC Fest. Modeled after Horizon’s drone event that was held in Florida last year, RC Fest took place in Monticello Illinois and was used to showcase all of Horizon’s different product lines. Consumers, dealers, and media, flocked to Eli Field to see all of Horizon’s new [...]
What was it really like to attend the 2016 SEMA Show? Much like Las Vegas the host city itself, it was overwhelming. All the vehicles at SEMA were, to put into one word, extreme. The trucks were crazy tall, the cars were incredibly rare & expensive, the modifications were next level, and even the size of the show itself was [...]
While the SEMA Show is best know for its sexy cars with insane modifications, it is also well known for its Gorgeous Spokesmodels. Not wanting to leave any of you guys at home out of the action, we have been taking plenty of pictures of SEMA’s hottest spokesmodels while walking the show floor. Not only do they help attract attention [...]
Right now, the 50th Anniversary SEMA Show is taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show is strictly for members of the automotive industry and has been a fantastic way to showcase all the products of speed-equipment manufacturers over the years. With rc cars becoming more scale authentic every day, the BigSquidRC Bash Crew had to make our way out [...]
Also representing the rc world at the SEMA Show 2016 was the crew from Redcat Racing. On the verge of release, Redcat was particularly showing off their new 1/5th scale Clawback Rock Crawler. The Clawback is not only a huge beast, but also comes with Addictive Desert Designs (ADD) licensed pieces and livery. The Redcat crew has been busy dialing [...]
To help keep all you hardcore bashers in the loop, we loaded up the BigSquidRC Bash Crew and headed out to Las Vegas, Nevada for the 2016 SEMA Show. Of course the first booth we dropped by was Traxxas. Traxxas is legendary for their off-road trucks and we couldn’t wait to see all the uberness that was inside their booth. Being [...]
Last Sunday the BigSquidRC Bash Crew along with the St. Louis RC Freaks Club put on the 2016 BigSquidRC Dirt Jumping Championships presented by Castle Creations and Pro-Line Racing. We have held multiple jump contests in the past, but this time we wanted to change things up and hold one strictly on dirt in the same type of conditions that [...]
