Should have bought some wellies?
Don't see how those can repell water that efficiently
My old (cheap) ones had split soles and were only a few months old. Have just binned them

If you have any significant distances to walk, I.e. Between home to station and station to work, I'd get something like a pair of walking boot and leave the nice leather sole shoe at the office. Otherwise the pavement will make that nice leather sole into mince meat in no time. It's what I do. Rubber sole for the commute and leather sole shoe at work. The rubber one lasts like 9 months and like £25 a pair, nothing fancy.
I wanted one as a kid but got a Madcap instead. Would still like one but haven't the space for anymore RC's!Vintage Tamiya goodness, when you open the box it smells like Beaties, circa 1991.
Exams are over, I can finally get this
Tomorrow I've decided after a MASSIVELY tough week to shut the phone/laptop down and game. I've not done that for years but I am planning to PC it to death tomorrow, might even do a pants only game fest, proper old school.
Half of me wants to do this, the other half not. Its like the people that save their expensive watches (or anything else expensive) for special occasions only. I wear my expensive watch daily, if it was sat in my draw I would feel like its not getting the use it deserves. The same as leaving shoes under my desk at work.

You'll still wear your nice shoes for 7/8 hours in the office and only the not so nice one for like an hour or 2.
It's nothing like the watch analogy. If you can afford to spend £150 on new shoes every 3 months, up to you.
Dang, all these rc motors is really making me want to grab one! I built a tamiya car with my dad a few years ago. It was brill! Want some sort of truggy offroad sort of thing I think.
Edit. Infact the exact model I had was the tamiya 1998 ford escort repsol rally car

"Fully assembed" where's the fun in that?
Least if you build it part by part it's a lot easier to fix when you crash it and it breaks.

They look like ALF.
Essentially the same song.
Top one, Markus Nikolai - Bushes
Bottom one, D.A.G.O - Bush Lied / Kerry Loves
Didn't think too much of the red white and blue label on the second one but on closer inspection it has paid for by the central committee for american honesty! with a new york po box on it. For the life of me i really don't know why!
Political background tune!

Its ready to race but you can change out all of the components!
My first nitro, can't get excited by electric rc cars these days, after seeing a well tuned nitro doing 50mph plus brushless just seems too lifeless!
