Good news is contagious!

Thanks guys! I will.
Luciano- I will make the announcement about your daughter during the filming part.
Magman- I know, it is! And happy birthday man!

AWesome ian!

I wanna hear a shoutout when you get famous :)

So can you give us more background info on the show?

Congratulations! Very nice to give the shout out to Luciano.

I'll give a shoutout to all you guys!
A bit of info:
The track will be a trecherous (sp?) course of a track with a volcano I will have to jump over, a minefield, and some enormous ramps. I have to come up with a "character" for my truck, (ideas are welcome, all I've come up with is... well.... nothing....) and it'll be fun for kids and adults alike. I will get some pictures from the show and I hope to have a great time!

Congartulations! :party:

I have one question though- What "show" is it that you got picked for? :neutral: Sorry if I deserve a :slap: for that one...

RC Wars airing on cartoon network.

stick a bunch of spotted fur on a body ,add some floppy ears and a tail....POOF ...your a dog.......congrats on the show...have fun

:lol: :party:

Character? An RC-Monster! A big blue fuzzy minotaur.

you could paint a dookie colored body and put a white furry mowhawk on it and name your truck the grimlen.....

congrats on getting pick.

You have to make it an aerodynamic mow or you will be all over the place on the jumps.

Hey congrads Bl..:yipi::yipi: That is so cool!! your DAD must be very proud of the BOY!.. :yes:..

I'm assuming your driving to Studio city for filming?? 2hrs from you is about the 101 and Hollywood area.. :neutral:

:whistle: If you want I’ll loan “LOAN” being the key word,:lol: you my pride and joy 808 Pro on 4s :wink: then you’ll have the opportunity to SPANK THEM ALL.. Just throwing it out there for you if you want.. We need / want a good showing out of you know!.. :intello:

PM me if your interested!..

Have a great time and I’ll tell you the same thing I tell my kids.. Sorry!. :oops:

Win lose or draw as long as you enjoyed yourself and came away with some type of experience you’re the better man for it!..:angel:

sweet dude just posted in your other thread. keep us up to date on when it airs! i sure wanna watch it.

I was thinking about that, but it looks like my LHS is going to be sponsoring me and I'll have to use Marty's Hobbies as my paint scheme.

:lol: Thanks!

Yeah, that's why I'm onl=y going with a paint scheme rather than have a bunch of crap sticking out of my body.

Thanks man!!!! If you can get the car here tomorrow then we have a deal! :yes:

Will do!

Congratulations:party: when will it air on tv? could some one tape it for me? In my house we traded cable for DSL :whistle:

RC Wars - Come on Shaun pony up the battle truck...

I can see the carnage now....

:yipi::yes: best idea of the year!

Congrats!!! Let us know when it is going to air.

Good god, no way! Your one lucky SOB for sure. But hey man good luck!!:surprised:

Definately take the battle truck over the 808.... rc wars... that just WORKS.

All it needs i Co2 pods to drop in front of the nitro guys so there cars flame out :)

Nice work BL_RVO! You will represent the Monster well, as well as all of us RCers out there. Maybe Team3Six can hook you up with a sweetly painted body! You want to look good, as well as be the fastest one, and he does some of the best work I have ever seen! Good luck bud!

Alright guys, I just spoke with Steve Neu and he's going to help our boy here be the best he can be. With such short noticed I wish I couldve helped a lot more. This is truely something good for the hobby.

BL_RV0, Steve Neu is expecting your phone call today sir.

Also, remember to have fun and let us all know when the show will air.

Did I miss something?? :neutral: I thought you were racing not going to WAR! My bad!..:oops: Hell yes I'll lone you the battle truck!:yes:, the thrower is a little low on fuel but a quick trip to the auto parts store will solve that issue.

I want video footage if it goes down (well that and what the parts that are left!) :lol::lol:

for what it worth, :whistle: I have had successful tests firing marbles out of the grenade launcher, so I'm thinking you might want to use steel BB’s.. :wink:

Just a thought!?..

PM. For my address and you can pick up whatever you need / will get a win Sir.. I’ll even give you 400 rounds of paintballs if you need them.. ??:neutral:

Awesome news BL_RV0!!

That would be very cool, (I can't emphasize that enough) but I'd like to do this competition under my own power. At this point, It looks like Neumotors is going to sponsor me so I will get some nice batteries and maybe a motor too! Plus, I think the other contestants might get a little pissed off if I am destroying their trucks... Plus, it needs to jump over a volcano as one of the many random-ass obstacles in the truck, and from what it sounds like to me, I don't think the battle truck could do that. It would be very cool, but I can't. :lol:
Shaun, I'll be thinking of you as I drive across the minefield! :intello:


Thanks man!


@everyone:
Update:
They (TV show) are coming to my house this afternoon to get a perspective of what my life is like outside of my RC world. That should be interesting I suppose.

So, how did the interview go? Were they intrigued by your "other life"? You didn't act like the typical reality show tool did you? Did you Nascar it up and mention all your sponsors in one single sentence? I'm just playing! I hope it went well for you! Keep us posted!

That is awesome!!! Did you have a link to any information about the show?

Hey congrads BIG TIME on the Neu sponsorship thing :party::party: ( I really hope that works out) :yes:and if you ever need a backup!, I’ve got you covered BL.. :wink:

Best of luck and do let us know when it on!.. :yes:

Have a great weekend sir..

Shaun.

It was fun. I'll try to keep you posted, but everything (even what they know) is still up in the air at this point.

Not really, because there really is no information available.

I had a great time on friday. I have to drive out to Irwindale again today for some more shooting... Only problem is that I don't think any of what they are filming now will be aired. I guess we'll find out. Yes, Neu is sponsoring me. I will try out my neu 6s 4900 25c pack today! :lol:
I don't know when it will air, neither do they. It depends how the TV industry likes the show. Here is the PITA though. They told me to bring my truck and all my gear, and when I get there I find out that they are giving everyone loaner trucks to drive. The course is literally impossible to do with the cars they have given me and 2 of the other 4 competitors. I and another had stock slashes, another had a stock bandit, and the lucky one got a stock 3905 e-maxx, who tore the course up. The hills are too steep and sandy, you can't see your truck 1/2 of the time, you don't have enough time to accelerate out of the turns to go off of this 5' ramp and fly over a volcano, and so on... They are modifying the track today and I'm looking forward to a slightly easier course. Most of the time you can't even tell where you are, since you are standing parallel to the truck, you have absolutely no depth perception. The driver stand is in completely the wrong place and the course is not possible to complete with the slashes or bandit. I was thinking "God, why can't I drive my truggy..." most of the time.

Wow, thats pretty lame that you had to use loaner trucks:no:. Maybe for the actual filming you will get to use your truggy. Got any pics of the track at all?

And what RC's are the other guys running? (not the loaner trucks but their own RC's.)

My dad got a couple pics yesterday. We (racers) complained about the track so for today they are changing it. :yipi:
The other 3 people had:
Brent- T3, T4, B44 (AND A 4PK!)
Daniel- MBX6, MBX5T, almost every truck you could imagine...
Girl (forgot her name :lol:) a T3

wow that sucks about the track but sounds like fun!!!
