What a thrill! We faced mud, pools, and dirt in abundance – the perfect setting for its inaugural run. Just moments before, it was shiny and new, but quickly it got a proper initiation into the rough and tumble world. I was eager to take it out after weeks of building, but it turns out, my kids were just as excited. I found myself filming and teaching them how to drive, secretly hoping they'd get bored. However, our adventure stretched over 5km, included a battery change, a fun picnic, and by the time we returned, I still hadn't gotten my hands on the remote! Surprisingly, I thoroughly enjoyed watching them take the wheel. It was a delight. During this run, I left both differentials unlocked, which, in hindsight, was a misstep. You can see it struggled a bit in the mud. Next time, we're going locked – testing at home has already shown it offers much more traction and power. So no more struggling through the mud. I'm confident now it can tackle any level of dirt and muck!

Alright, the Rock Socker is ready for action, at least in its debut form! I've got the lights all hooked up, waterproofing checked off, tires vented, and wires neatly tied up. There are still some upgrades in the pipeline, but as it stands, it's primed and ready for its inaugural trail run. I must say, this vehicle is stunning – I'm absolutely loving it! Stay tuned for more updates…

BBX is my most favourite one. It looks awesome, it handles really well and it is pretty fast. Made for off road, stays off road... ... and, obviously, maintenance, cleaning and polishing after
