there is a very, very slight chance i'll be selling my vbs-t bulks. if you're interested, i'll let you know once i find out for sure (small chance i could have an opportunity to get towered VBS).

GM360 - i'm in the same boat. at first i scoffed at UE, before i knew better. then i started with 1 thing, was very impressed, then with each consecutive thing i've acquired i'm even more impressed. too bad i have to baby my SM, as there's no replacement parts if i break something. i wanna bash the heck out of it! but i can't.

CONTACT ME FIRST!

I'm thinking I might sell my GA bulks, GA Diff Housings, and all the upgraded diff internals and set aside the cash for VBS's. (I already have a new set of 6-spider diffs sitting in my parts collection.)

My GA stuff is all 7075, highly polished, and brand new! (same goes for the diff internals.)

This is the project that never gets any time (and this weekend we flooded with the storms so I'm still cleaning up....guess what........NO HOBBY TIME FOR ME! :-( so I just keep gathering parts.................

Well, that's not stopping you? :p

UE is more into making Harley parts (from what it looks like).

What do you guys mean by Harley parts? For Harley Davidson Motorcycles, maybe?!!!....

yep - harley davidson. specifically, for v-rods. his latest part that he developed and is selling is an extended 5 gallon gas tank, and has a support section on the UE website for it.

he (robin) has a v-rod that's about as maxxed out as a full UE SuperMaxx, lol. this is a shot of his bike...not sure how current it is, but holy *BLING*

Capt. its not about liking to work on them. It's about having time, nothing more. Working on, modifying, bashing, & racing RC's is one of my most favorite things to do. With work demands and family obligations plus recent issues (flooded basement and numerous downed trees from 75+ mph winds) I'm spending my time cleaning & repairing the house instead of the RC's. Even my prized possession (Supercharged Mustang) has been sitting idle this summer.

Despite that I'll have my brushless CRT built and running some time in Sept. The Supermaxx is still in pieces and the HSR Slipperkits are on hold till I have time to get them finished.

Oops! Sorry, Pro, I did not mean to enrage you.Haha!
Still, I need to stay away from keeping my truck clean and shiny, I want to enjoy the hobby like everyone else. Assemble, play, break and assemble again. It seems like I only want to assemble, play and keep it safe at the same time....that's boring, imho.

No problem Al! I just did not want anyone to thinks that I lost interest in RC's since quite the opposite is true!

Well, my point wasn't that you lost interest, but I thought you're the type who, build it, put it on the shelve and keep it clean. Well, that's me, but not anymore, I'll go dirty this time...:)

Al,

I build them, run them hard, clean and detail them, then put them on the shelf till I can get the time to rune them again. Then the whole process starts over again. I do hate dirty cars & trucks though. I take pride in how my gear looks and like to keep it clean and good looking.

Pro.

No doubt! Top quality and the prices to match!

yep. it's by no means the cheapest stuff out there, or even in the moderate price range. but the quality, craftsmanship and engineering that goes into every piece is unmatched. i cannot believe how much better my truck handles, just from the EXT suspension alone.

totally agree. the first thing i think of is 'how in the heck do you ever keep that clean!'. it's gotta show dirt and fingerprints like nothing else. and it's just too much 'bling' - it's gotta blind people around you in the sun.

i'm a big fan of v-rods too - one of the things on my wish list is a Night Rod Special. =)
