Not doing much in terms of R/C though, I just keep my old Civic on my desk lol
Congrats on the promotion. That's cool with the film and video stuff, still need some sort of hobby to keep you sane, lol.

Still have my son Scott Jr involved with xmods. After graduating college early, he has a great job as a mechanical engineer. He has find some time to write some cnc codes and we bought a mill and have been selling carbon fiber evo chassis's. Gen 1 soon to come.

Xmods was and is still a great way we get to do things together even with him living a state away.
I'll have to check out the chassis, is it on ebay for sale? Sounds pretty cool. And definitely a way to keep doing things together, thats what hobbies are for

Awesome on the degree, definitely takes a lot of time out of other things when college hits.
I was thinking about that the other day, I joined these sites back in 08 and spent a lot of time on them over the next many years, and now 9 years later one site just shut down without notice, and hardly see any posts here. Glad there is still activity, and people sill interested. Just crazy how far things have dropped off from the good old days. lol
