I had a choice between going to Dubai and getting a Tamiya CR01 crawler, wasn’t that difficult a choice. Going to spend Eid at home putting it together and hopefully spend the winter down south crawling with the other FJ Cruisers pictured below. So what are you doing this Eid?

I’l go to dubai and stay at atlantis , spend my nights in the lounge.
I still don’t know how I’m spending Eid in Kuwait…
SLEEP…… kha kha kha shshshsh
traveling to Salalah..
Fasting again
5. Frankom :
7ram , eating yes.
sleep 24/7…..
9 day weekend, too long, maybe work in between eating, sleeping and shopping and cruising in my new car
failaka!
how much would it typically cost to buy a Tamiya?
Buy Battlefield 2 plus expansion
.grg thats a very difficult question to answer. what kind of car are you interested in? do you want a kit or a ready built model? I bought my Tamiya Frog for around KD80 ready built and ready to race. The crawler kit i got now is KD95 but I need to buy an electronic speed controller which is at least KD20, a receiver which is around KD12 and a Servo which is another KD12. If you don’t have a radio controller thats another KD25 (but minus KD12 for the receiver since 1 comes with the controller)
Congrats on the kit Pay good attention on the gear box good luck
I’m hoping to go motorcycle riding with a group at least once in the following days.
Anyone else interested?
Other than that… lots of social gatherings, family, friends, parties etc.
Off to Cyprus tomorrow for a week, can’t wait!!!!!!!
How about putting the Tamiya CR01 crawler for the Give Away Day 6 😛
Looks pretty nice 😉
yabeela, bs i would go for the wrangler! coz it looks nearly identical to mine! same chassis.
eating eating & eating
catching swine flu from a relative, or a stranger in one of the cinemas :/
Getting to build a sono tube/Enclosure for the 18″ GemSound Subwoofer that I got a couple of months ago. Plus hopefully finding a nice amp to drive this monster.
Where did you find the Sonotubes? Desperately need one!
Goin to LUNCH at kai 😀
I actually just picked up my new Unimog from there today, havent had a chance to test it yet but it seems like its pretty strong.
Going to spent in Kuwait, splitting time between sleeping, watching movies, cooking experiments and long drives. Will try to goto entertainment city or Khairan,,,
Staying in Kuwait! and going to lots of family gatherings!
then i have to study cause my stupid school has to give us 3 tests and homeworks the week we come back from 3eed! whats the point of the holiday!!
Thinking of jetting off to Rio, or sailing down the Zambezi, scaling Everest or heading off chargiong rhino in the Serengete. If none of that turns out to be possible, may just stay at old faithful……al Zour and chalet…..
id rather take a 1/8 scale buggy that this, much more fun and since the season started, more than 100 racers will be on the fun race this comming week.
Hey Jay I also passed by extreme hobby yesterday night and picked up a futaba s3305 servo. Passing by again tonight to pick up a receiver and some crystals.
Sega Republic, Dubai Mall top floor.
Dubaiing……eating, drinking, shopping, did I mention eating, drinking, shopping…?

get a sanwa digital remote better than the normal remote
aha…already planned a house party on eid and a poker nyt!
sos: thanks but I am very happy with my Futaba AM controllers since a new receiver costs only KD10. If I go with an FM or 2.4Ghz receiver I would end up paying KD20 (FM) or KD30 (2.4ghz) for a receiver.

Yes Mark the receiver coast about 30 kd for the 2.4 but there is a lot of function in the digital remote you can`t find it in the AM remote .
Mark
you need a High Torque Servo

I already got one, the Futaba S3305 with metal gears
SOS: there is no function in the remote I can’t currently get with my AM controller
Mark

i thing the Beige and white for the grill it will be good classic color
So far I am thinking gun metal with a white roof and all black wheels.

good job
don`t forget to wash the body before u paint it
did u install aluminum shaft ??
yeah, first hop-up i got and glad i did cuz the stock plastic shafts look like they would twist and break easily.
I heard there was something like a 2 mile back up to get into the STUPID tiny Kuwait airport before Eid. Better to stay in Kuwait and play – even though the MOI has stated that they don’t care where the party is or who is having the party, they will bust everybody. Oh, wait….. now I get the 2 mile back ups to get the hell out of Kuwait….
