Re: Kenworth K100 Super Tanker
Beautiful work on both this build and on your others. What connection do you have to Louisville, Kentucky? Saw it on your trucks.

Re: new rc4wd dozer
Was not familiar with the TARR units. The video is impressive for a smoker, and I looked up RC Tank Electronics. Their sound unit might be good for a V12 diesel in a construction machine. Thanks...

Re: new rc4wd dozer
Sound and detail are very good. That operator is spastic and a bit freaky! I've not liked smoke units - it drifts out rather than at high velocity and modern machines don't emit much visible...

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
You talked about it all weekend and now you "gone and dun it"! Good luck. Of course, when you get fancy tools the expectations go up. After seeing the 785 in person, I'm not sure how much "up" is...
