Pretty cool. I have always been into RC cars. I had my fair share of them over the years. A few years ago, I bought my first nitro powered onroad car, a Kyosho Super GP10 Toyota Supra. I have done many performance modifications to it over the years, and this little sucker kicks butt! Recently I put in a high performance motor with a new clutch and the top speed is much faster now. Id love to get a radar gun on it to see just how fast it really is, Im guessing it will do about 50mph, with the 2 speed transmission it has. ;) Mike :)

Fun clearing off a dusting from the driveway . The plow needs controls and Blizzard type wings

BWhite, Im almost positive that the blade can be made that it can go up and down, but not left and right. There is a truck put out by Kyosho, called the Blizzard, and it has track drive and a snowplow on the front, its pretty cool looking. I cant remember 100%, but I believe there is a servo hooked up to the plow to raise and lower it. No left or right angling though, no angle cylinders obviously. :D The one Im talking about also comes as a nitro burner! :) Mike :burnout

Wow, that's pretty nice. Just jogged my memory into remembering something from my childhood. I had a Matchbox or Hot Wheels truck with a plow on it and used to plow the snow off of the porch railing with it. I loved the 1/4" dustings cause they were probably equivalent in scale to a 10" storm. Maybe that's where the plowing thing started for me???

Those T Maxx trucks are some serious business. There are guys racing them professionally spending thousands of dollars on them and making big money competing with them. It doesn't take much to get them moving 50+ MPH. Theres a guy in CT who is one of the largest distributers across the country. He ships them everywhere. He told me some guys use theirs with those plows on them to plow like 1/2" snows from their driveways. Someday I will have to add one to my collection of toys. They have nearly any truck and car you can imagine for the Plastic bodies for them too.
