Hello From Los Angels
 

I'm new to this hobby, been interested in R/C's for awhile but never really found an area of the that drew me in till now...... So now after seeing all the great work on here I'm thinking of what project to start.... I'm thinking D9

Welcome! What part of LA are you from? I grew up out there till the quake in 94 and now i live with snow everywinter...... but atleast the ground doesnt shake haha
A D9 would be a pretty big step as a first project unless you got some mad metal skills??

I'm the opposite I grew up in Buffalo, NY and moved out here away from the snow. My metal working skills, mechanical knowledge and equipment are plenty adquate, what I am predicting the problem to be is time, as I see this seems to be an extremly addictive hobby and I think it'll be hard to not want to work on this during normal shop time when I should be working on customer's projects. I live just North of LAX in Ladera Heights and my shop is just east of LAX in Gardena.

I'm shooting for the new high track version, D9T. I'm also going to go bigger in scale so its easier to do the detail the 1st time around. I'm going for 1:6 so it'll probably shake the ground a bit, if I manage to get it out of the planning stage.
