later on i wanted something real. which means to me an inline six and rear wheel drive. ever seen a
race car with front wheel drive like audi or vw

my fwd vw eats inline sixes for breakfast, v8's for lunch...

2004 IIRC

it was impressive. i don't know what was better audi winning or all 3 peugots breaking. lol

<--vw fanboy (i too own, drive and work for vw/audi/porsche)

nice!

i picked up a used b4 last week (set up for dirt oval, it looks like it may have been raced once)
i need to strip her down to see how she ticks aswell.

this is my first modern buggy, most of my stuff is all vintage or re-released.

thats insane.

the guy must have really good eyesight. lol

thats the kit, and yup you need the hardware. team crp split up all there kits. i also got their frog shock front shock mounts, when i went to install it i found out the hard way that i needed their harware kit. lol the fx10 a arm mounts are a little long, you have to trim them. you'll see when you ...

as you can see from the pic, the included upper links are too long. i made new ones from threaded 4/40 rod and ball ends.

i'll see if i can get a completed pic.

i'm already there bigjeep! i'm up to 10 cars, lipo/brushless all that jazz lol. i'm still mostly vintage though, the only newer cars i have are the b4 i just scored, a tamiya dt02 (what a waste of time) and a tamiya m03 and ff02. the rest are tamiya's from when i was a kid. i'm trying to stay away f...

it's not an exact fit, it needs to be trimmed a bit but it really helps out the front end.

i'll get a pic of mine for ya.

well, i didn't make out as well as i thought i would. although he told me he had tons of ae goodies, he really didn't. he had a bunch of 10l pan cars,and a bunch of other pan cars that i didn't recognize, that i'm not interested in. they were all set up for dirt and carpet oval. he had one black pan...

i had that chassis and the trailing arms bitd. it was a great set up IMO.
a beastly set up to say the least, very thick chassis and the trailing arms lasted for years, never broke.

i miss that one alot.

thanks. i've been looking at all the gold pans on ebay.

i'm going to see a friend later today that has a ton of rc10's that he got from a mutual friend who passed away.

i'm hoping a nice gold pan is in there, i'm pretty sure there is.

hey all. my name is pete and i'm a vintage rc junkie. i used to race rc10's (as well as a jrx2 and jrxt, even a blackfoot before stadium trucks came out) at a & d's fastracks in brewster ny back in the late 80's early 90's with my dad. i got out of rc all together in the mid 90's, now i'm marrie...
