    things are a bit wacky in mine Aaron, i uploaded one pick and somehow it took up all the spaces!

    reckon you could have a look at it for me so i can put a few newbees up?

    also, could we possibly get a small comp goin, no prizes except pics get displayed on the random images? that would be really cool!

    nah, i lose interest in them if they get bigger than a bit. and the cost factor is a big hurdle for me. i’ve had a play with a mad force and i’m very impressed, but i’d lose interest before too long making it a very expensive ornament. now if someone made something like an overland or monster z in 1:64 scale i’d get interested…..:8ball:

    the scale is what keeps me interested. if i was into z’s i’d feel guilty if i even had a 1/8th of my bit collection, but with these micro beasties i can keep on going!

    another handy monster accessory is vinyl sheets, i picked up a sample book of 40 a4 sheets in different designs off the side of the road once. the sheets can be laid over spray cans, bit box’s e.t.c and make cool changeble ramps and stuff to ride over.

    yeah, unlimited (up to 10 gigs) then back down to 56k’s again…. and it doesnt say anything about when the 10 gig limit resets. would be good if it was per month but i am not shure.

    i am forever sold on the sbcg’s. they are much nicer to look at, race and the controller feels so nice compared to standard bcg. i hope to get the ferrari set next and then get two more chassis’ to complete the set of 6 frequencies.

    then i’m going to get 5 mates to try and beat me on my own track at once!

    has anyone compared the pcb’s of the sbcg and bcg yet? what are the differences appart from crystals and chips?

    the lego wheels are great, i remember the old ones but i gave up all my lego collection to my cousins.

    i had to go buy a new “lego racer” for these and they are more sticky than the old ones (in memory).
    this the type of set i got my wheels from:

    thats bad news! any ideas why it didnt work?

    any way to boost the transmitter to increase range?

    i have got 1 super bit (out of three) that doesnt have the “run on” problem, and the other two only get affected severly when the power is almost emty.

    you think thats cool, have a search for the substance called aerogel. it’s called solid smoke by some as well. nasa developed it and seems very alien inspired technology.

    it is very lite, works like a highly efficient capacitor and is opaque like smoke when made on earth. they have made some batches in space and it is almost perfectly clear. and it shatters too.

    on discovery channels “junkyard wars” once two teams built a 1:1 car rigged up with servos and ramming weapons and had a remote control madmax style car war. it was awesome! the winning car mannadged to cripple the other by piercing the main control box on the drivers seat.

    search for it on the net, the people who made it have released it on the web.

    its appaling paying $30 for a video or dvd for a couple of episodes when the series is (i think) 12 eps. long.

    like ninja scroll, sbs and world movies (austar) play it once a year. tape it man!

    another funny one i saw years ago was the giggilo. did you ever see that? soooo funny!!!

    nice one all and thanks barto!

    my camera just run out of power so pics of my beast with shell attached will have to wait…

    but you can see the shell in the flame on! thread. its had a few things added to it to make it suit tho. and the paint needs abit of touching up but as soon as these batts are ready youll get to witness the scorcher Bb.
