Started another exspensive hobby

[kuatto]

I was just thinking about a temp gauge to see what the engine runs at.I had a good run today,found a local monster truck bashing spot,lots of jumps.I would love to have a radar gun just to see how fast it really is on the straight.I definitlyhave to get the other car running,just so I can have someone to run with.

There's been advertisements from Mattel Hot Wheels for a radar gun.

Can't figure how they can offer a functional radar gun free for $50 of purchases but works on TV.

Seen the website,told Krisdeann I have to have it,just so I know for sure if the car does 50mph
Learned a costly lesson today,don't let strangers drive your car A liitle guy came over all excited and asks if he could try the car,said ok,but I'll help you.While helping control the car,he ran it full speed(about 50)into a concrete wall....well he was sorry and I couldnt get mad at him,told him I could fix it.After a couple of hours of switching frontend parts from the second car,its all better.Now have to replace a full front suspension($$$)on the other car(I told Krisdeann,shouldn't be too pricey )

45 to maybe 48 mph is what you'll get. The 50 mph that the mfg's come up with is a good run at sea levell. (Unless you've done some serious mod's.)
