JConcepts and Freestyle RC Monster Truck World Challenge Race At RC Madness

I just got back from a weekend of RC monster truck racing at RC Madness in Enfield, CT. The event was slated to be the RCMTCNY World Challenge, but had to be changed because one of the organizers from came down with Covid. JConcepts and Freestyle RC stepped up to host an alternative event at the same location so that people could still come and race. It turned out to be a really fun event and the course they came up with was really cool.

Scale Caged RCs Seem To Be A Thing Right Now: New Super Baja Rey 2.0 and Element RC Enduro Gatekeeper

Two new RCs were dropped on the market recently that caught my attention and both of them really focus on a scale look with their detailed cages.

I like what Element RC is doing with the gatekeeper because it gives that nice tube frame look, but also hinges up to allow easy access to the electronics. You don't ge...
