That's fair enough. The real cars had several hundred pounds of ballast in their trunks to make them land flat. They also used to crank up the front suspension, but I don't know if that would make any difference or even be possible on RC cars.

For those who just want to see it running, I uploaded a video for that: As you can see from the jump at the end, it didn't fly very far and landed nose-down. I had the esc plugged into the wrong port on the receiver, so I was at half speed. As for the nose down landing, I'd hoped that sliding the battery back would fix it, but it didn't, so I had to resort to more drastic measures. I reinforced the rear panel behind the axle so it could hold the battery. That did the trick and now it lands flat, so I should be able to adjust how it lands with different size batteries. In other news, I got back to work on Rosco's car today and currently have it in primer. Hopefully this week I'll be able to glue it together and get it painted soon after. Lastly, I decided to take some pics of the Kyosho with some scale road barriers that I printed.

That is excellent! Great job!!

Jeeter's blacksmith shop was on Laramie Street. I did a roundup of Laramie Street on page 11 of this thread.

I posted eight screengrabs from 'The Shootist' back on page 7 of this thread. Here's the one showing the livery stables. Mark B even included a homage to 'The Shootist' in his model of Cooter's Garage.

No, George Strait is Enos Strate's cousin in my Hazzard imagination.

Hi Burl! This is a fantastic thread. Thanks for bringing it back up after over a year of it being inactive.

Yes, there's one just behind JJ while he practices fighting.

Is there a swimming pool on JJ Carver's estate? I don't remember it, but it seems that the would be.

So cool! Or, to put it another way.....YEEEHAWWW!

Must be where Jeeter Davenport used to hang out.
