Re: Hot Trick Red Fox (Tamiya Fox conversion)

I wish we ran a vintage class around my area, I have a handful of vintage Tamiyas I could run but this would be on a different level!

Re: Hot Trick Red Fox (Tamiya Fox conversion)

Posting up two pictures of my runner. First picture of a setup from a race on carpet where only original wheels were allowed. Used a fresh set of Schumacher full spike yellow and removed the spikes for carpet racing. Would really recommend the Schumacher tires for the original Fox wheels - for the ...

Re: Hot Trick Red Fox (Tamiya Fox conversion)

Just want to give a second opinion on body work for the Red Fox. The original Fox body is small compared to many other 1/10 scale buggies, and designed to wrap around the original monocoque chassis. Seems to be more or less a brim full conversion. Upper and lower rear arms, chassis, steering kit, f...

Re: Hot Trick Red Fox (Tamiya Fox conversion)

Pretty much a "Holy Grail"...I hope u do it justice with a full documented resto!...if not u need to sell it to me and I will! It really wouldn't need much as far as I can tell, just new tires/wheels and a Fox (or "Novafox") shell, shock oil...just a bit annoying that Tamiya end...

Re: Hot Trick Red Fox (Tamiya Fox conversion)

Hot Trick was an aftermarket parts company that most used flat metal plates (I think typically aluminum) for replacement parts. That looks like a Tamiya Fox that got the plastic chassis replaced with the Hot Trick kit. Well, maybe is started out as a Tamiya Fox. There's a few RC10 parts in the mix ...

Re: Traxxas sending cease and desist letters to aftermarket companies then backing off.

Oh yeah, they are complete trash imo and they will never get a penny from me. I was only referring to the fact they actually finally made it clear what their beef was. I mean, they tried to sue HBO Max. Come on. Once mine break (or I get bored) I'll probably sell my Traxxas stuff, I try to sway oth...

Re: Traxxas sending cease and desist letters to aftermarket companies then backing off.

If I have any problem with Traxxas, it's how they treat LHS's more than anything else. They will bully them if they don't sell enough chargers/batteries, or if they carry parts for competitors. As far as I know they've done nothing to RPM, but Jconcepts (and likely Proline) have to play the "Fo...
