Do you like wheels ? I do...

Nice looking wheels, quality wheels and special motorsport wheels...  I really enjoy collecting wheels. The latest set i bought, the BBS RE686, pretty rare wheels from a e46 btcc 320si.

Wide fenders with the bbs re686 wheel,



E36 compact race car with bbs re686 wheels. Fenders need to be wider to fit these wheels.

Some nice pictures from a driftday with the good old 318ti e36 compact.

Some nice foto's about a driftday a while ago. I love to beat this little 318ti, and these cars can handle so much abuse. Even with the m42b18 motor, these things go pretty good on track.

Bought this axial yeti xl, and it looks like crap!

Yesterday i bought this axial yeti xl, and it looks absolutely awfull.
So today, i did made it a bit more proper and gave it some fresh paint straight from the rattlecan.

 I made it fluorized yellow, and i think this looks a lot better.
Still not perfect, but im gonna bash this thing hard,... so it doesnt need to be that pretty.

Looking well used !
Fresh layer of paint!

Better ?

Both of them badboys!




Ready for action!




I broke the HPI 5SC Flux baja within 10 minutes.

The first time i drove this thing, i broke it within 10 minutes.
Because these brushless cars are so fast, i just over-jumped and landed it on a treetrunk.
One of the wheels came off, and it was the end of the fun.

But!!

I'm just gonna fix this thing, and bash it again till it breaks !!!

Broke the axle.
Getting the broken one, and a good one out of the car.
The good one, i need for measuring, and making a new one.
Already made a rough shape for the new one.

Milling the flat surfaces on the axle.

Milling it, to take the dogbone axles in it.

Looks like it ! Fits very nice.



Bearings, fit, so it's good to go !



Everytime i drive or ride something, i break something.

A little while ago i start doing some radio controlled car racing again.
Long time ago i stopped this expensive hobby, but i still loved it... so i bought one again..., and actually bought a 2nd one 2 wheeks later already.

Sh*t escalates so fast ! haha.

The axial yeti xl 6s and the Hpi 5sc 6s ( both brushless and fast ! )


The HPI 5sc baja 6s flux !
This thing is absolutely huge, i am a 1.99 mtr guy, to compare.



In the next item i show you guys what i broke at the first drive of the first rc car i got.
I had like 10 minutes fun, before i smashed the car !

Got myself some new wheels for the bmw e30 ! Work Meister M1.

I got myself some new wheels for my bmw e30 project. Seems to be a pretty unique set, cause these were the first 17 inch meister m1 wheel...
