Re: World Record Tractor Trailer Jump

RCT,

I stand corrected. Guinness should look into this one as it very well may be the longest jump. The lack of safety equipment for the driver as well as the impressive fire ball should be worth...

World Record Tractor Trailer Jump

Check out this video of the world record jump of a tractor trailer. The video is at the bottom of the article. Looks very similar to some videos I have seen of the late night activities at the Indy...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Re: ERC Trucking & Construction

Wow, that looks great. Is that a flume you installed to take the rubber material from the top tier back to the bottom for reloading? How do the trucks handle the grade with a load on them. You are...

Re: My first Lipo incident.

One misconception I see a lot is that lipos blow up. Lipos don't explode, they just burn very rapidly. Make sure that there is nothing near a suspect Lipo that is combustible as the fire will be...

Re: CAT 390D

It looks very nice. Did it come with the radio, or did you install your own? Maybe I missed it up the page, but what are these excavators going for?

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Joe,
The shop is looking great. My shop in the basement of my house is a similar size with the exact same layout. One thing I did was to put a double (5-0x6-8) set of doors from the gararge to...

Re: Is it a fork lift or a truck

Maybe I am a little slow today, but I dont really see the point. It seems like a solution in search of an infrequent problem. At least here in the US, and I would expect in most countries freight...

Re: windowless AC units

As far as dehumidification goes you want to make sure you get one that is the proper size for the space and additional loads from the equipment. If you buy too large (too high BTU"s) of a unit you...

Re: Nitro, why because I had the parts and I could.

Travis,
You may already be aware of this, but you may be able to convert this engine to diesel with a little work. Diesel used to be fairly popular fuel in a lot of the older RC airplane engines. ...

Re: Hauling Dirt out of my basement (present day)

Yup, I agree driving two trucks at once is not that impressive of a feat if you are actually doing it at all. Anyone can park two trucks and take a picture of them.:D:D:D Now operating a video...
