good luck man I hope that the thief or thieves are caught and get what they got coming
Just remember I think it was Adam drake who had his 10th scale nitro truck ( his pride and joy ride)swiped at a expo somewhere while it was on display and some hobby shop owner recognized the truck when the culprit tried to buy some stuff for it and turned in the dungpile who swiped it and Adam got his ride back...
So keep the faith and dont loose hope cuz there are a lot more good people in Rc then bad.
