I went over to my lhs (Walt's Hobby Shop in Joliet, IL) yesterday and Bob who runs it and is the grandson of the original owner (opened in 1953) was telling me he was overjoyed as he had found something in a box up on the top shelf in the back room...

I am looking for any color pictures of Jeremy Kortz rides from his Losi days ('93~94).
Below are scans from RCCA. I doubt Competition Plus featured any color pic :wink: but may be other mags did. Personal pictures from local SoCal racers from...
As long as I'm in a CAT frame of mind, I decided to scan the original TRC (U.S. importer) full-page ad from Competition Plus of the short wheelbase CAT. This was from early 1987. I used to stare at this ad endlessly while I was supposed to be doing...

I found a few articles on the 95 Worlds, but none of them had any good shots of Pavidis' 4WD winning ride and body (the ride's, not Mark's, mind you :mrgreen: )
Would anyone be able to help on this one?
Thanks!
Paul

is this the one you are talking about ?? :)
All right, now we're becoming serious, thanks! Is this the real McCoy? I thought Mark's ride had black rims with yellow wheel discs (Yokomo or Reedy)? Thanks!
Lot of folks didn't know that I did a lot of the art for our first ads in RC News magazine back in the day. These Cartoons here are bad photographs of bad photocopies, so they are looking pretty rough. I think I have about 20 more I'll post up when...
Found these in my parts box, thought they were worth sharing. The canisters appear to read Racing Silks , google is silent on them. The lapel buttons say Trinity Monster Horsepower 1987 World Champion.
I got this camber/toe gauge a while back in a lot from craigslist. it didn’t come with any instructions and I’m a bit puzzled on just how it works. If anyone has used one of these before or would know where I could find a manual, I would really...

Perfect! Thank you very much, I guess im only missing two bushings but I think the two I have will get the job done. I diddnt realize this came out when the xx was around. Probably why I couldn't find any info about it when I googled it :roll:...
Page 74, the only page NOT in the scan from RCCA's website; the magazine jumps from page 70 to page 78. It's an article on doing a mid-motor conversion on the RC10. Can anybody help?

This may be a crazy request, but I am looking for the instructions for the Nitro Powered TRC/CC Python. Thanks to JK Racing I have one waiting on restoration.
Does anyone have the issues of RCCA or Racer where they covered Brian Kinwald using the Predator. I believe it was 1993 or 1994. I know he used the car at the Florida WinterChamps (I was there). I am not sure if he used it at the ROAR Nats that year...
looking for some cool pics/scans of this old pan car(not lynx 2) who has one of these cars? :)
Last post
The axle is pretty close. Most likely steel. After about 1990 they all had the longer diff. side hub like the 10l's. I feel bad because I can't remember what shock or spring the predator had on the rear. I think it was just a spring set up like the...
I am looking for the scan of Instructions to the Thorp Differential for the Frog, Subaru Brat, Blackfoot and Monster Beetle. I already have a copy of this instruction:
But I need the instructions for a different Thorp Diff such as:

The diff assembles the same for both types. The only change is the outdrives/shafts. Unless you need part numbers, you can go by the scan you have for assembly of the diff.
I truly miss the early days when the cars were hand finished. The sense of accomplishment was what made the hobby really fun. And I'm talking about 1980.
Guys, are there any old brochures/ads out there of MRP 1/8 on road bodies from the late 70's??.........i have a couple old 1/8 MRP bodies and was wondering what else MRP offered at the time........thanks........MATT.....
RCCA ran an article sometime around '90-91 where a guy set up an RC10 for indoor carpet oval. I cannot for the life of me remember which model he started with. Maybe a graphite of some sort. Anyway, he replaced the front shocks with tie rods and put...

If you still need this, I have a pile of magazines I could check. LMK.
I remember an article in RCCA back in the day where Cliff Lett explains his technique for offroad driving, including preloading for jumps. I don't remember the year it was in, But if anyone can find this article and scan it I would really appreciate...

I looked for it the other morning, the article with cliff lett on building a Team Car isn't the one I'm looking for.
I actually found out it was in Radio Control Model Cars, I'll be doing some more searching, but I did find a newer article that...

Alright, im going out on a limb here, and probably going to get beat for this but here goes.

this is just my personal opinion.....
unless you have access to cf sheet that already has the kickup molded in already, i don't think there'd be a huge interest. that's probably one reason you don't see other people knocking them out. if all you...
Preparing some cat bodies today, i thought it might be a good idea to scan my self made window masks. I was a bit in a rush, please do not expect them to be too exact around the edges.
Thought I d spread some RC10 joy, well sort of! :? Just uploaded the 1987 IFMAR 2WD World Championships on to Youtube. Its all 3 legs of the A final in which 5 RC10's take on the might of 5 Ultima's :roll:

So I acquired an original RC10 a few years ago through a trade. It was a mint, never run, yet assembled RC10 6 gear. With it, I got much of the paperwork and the instruction manual. I was working at a hobby shop at the time and a few months later, I...

I'd be throwing some laminate on that one. Better yet, send it to me and I'll do it for free :lol: :lol:
On second thought, you might not want to do that.
