Tim Notes:
Chip shortage is still an issue for all you Maclan fans. Some info on the chip shortage as its called. How did we get here? Rona scare for auto makers, Rona plaint shut downs, Silica for glass vaccine vials.
Tim got a new Truck! Let me tell you about it. Leather, moonroof, power steps, no crashing programs and on and on.
Did a little interview with the Five Star chassis guys and my buddy Todd Solterio and they/Todd had a surprise for me.
Tulsa is coming, what am I doing this time? The biggest RC drag race ever held and its going to be epic. 500 plus entries
