Happy Father's Day to all you RC dads out there! Hope you had a great one. I really enjoyed my boys today and this whole weekend. Definitely wanted to keep my focus on them as much as I could.
I also re-cap my painful 1/5th scale race day from last weekend. It was stressful, but I still really enjoyed the day and left with my RCs running better than when I came.

Lots to talk about in this episode. I talk about it later in the podcast, but want to link you to it first. Bari Musawwir has a new YouTube channel he is starting called Bari Builds. Subscribe to him here: https://www.youtube.com/user/bigbam2g
Axial announced their SCX10iii RTR today and it looks amazing. Get one while you can get it on the first pre-order because they will sell out. Pre-order at your local shop if you have one.
You can also pre-order them at Horizon Hobby.

It was a week of new RC bodies! JConcepts announced the 1987 Buick Grand National street eliminator and Junior Mortician monster truck bodies, while also teasing some new tires in the background of their video. Pro-line dropped the 70's Rock Van body that looks like an old Dodge/Plymouth van. They also introduced some new tough-color bodies for their '69 Nova Street eliminator, '66 f100 Stampede body, and '46 Power Wagon.

Because I'm not popping them out as quick as I used to (until tomorrow hopefully when my Rodecaster Pro returns from repairs) I've got a lot to talk about. We'll be covering the new Team Associated DR10, my Slash Street Eliminator build, 5th scale monster truck track I'm building in my backyard, and more. Hope you enjoy it and are doing well.

This podcast is a huge update and brain dump about all things CCxRC. Here's some of the things I'll be discussing:
- SMT10 Build
- SCX10iii to build
- Tamiya Clod Buster Black Edition To Buy
- Team Associated DR10 Drag Car is finally hitting stores
- RC Monster Truck Drag Racing? Hippies Monster Drags does it, but should we be doing grudge races?
- ARRMA Typhon 6s BLX
- Kyosho Mini-z Toyota 4-runner and Stackable Terrain. Is the stackable terrain really $75 for recycled cardboard shaped like terrain?
- Which of my RC cars would I get rid of and what would I keep? Don't know where this came from
- Primal RC suspension updates.
- BMXer mad at RCers for using "their" jumps that are in a public park.

Today is an exciting day. Axial was set to have a 15 year anniversary Celebration, but it was cancelled due to COVID-19. They did, however, just unveil a new SCX10iii. And as I write this description, Axial now had more info and photos on their site...and Scale Build's Guild just dropped a super detailed video worth watching. He also added a 3D printed head that looks like him and it's pretty amazing. So that's a cool option vs. my request to remove the driver to put in other figures. Anyway, it looks awesome and for $369 for the kit, I know I'll be ordering one.
