With the re-release of the Tamiya Porsche GT2 it sure would be nice to have a scale nut to go along with it. How about producing a run of your super scale nuts?
A couple of months ago, a group on facebook contacted me about some new Clod Wheels. They said these are no really High-End, Sweet wheels out there, and the ones they do buy are not spectacular, and the same ones most guys already have. I was not...

Awesome wheels !!
I can imagine the headaches of trying to coordinate different wheel designs, colors and wheel nuts.
Even though I'm not getting a set I still thank you.
I have spoken to Chris at REC, and he indicated that if we can get enough interest and commitments to his aluminum RC-10 Jellybean wheel sets, he will do another run on these.
These will be a complete set and also includes the 3 spoke knock off...
A few days ago whilst in the 'Library' (Ahem) I was looking at a writeup in a 2003 RC mag that featured my Aluminum Shock Pliers (We did 'em first and they've been copied by several companies, which kinda makes me proud, but I digress.) So it dawned...
With the re-issue of the Tamiya Blackfoot, I have chosen to re-pop these spectacular bed kits! I just scored a couple bods & NO WAY I'm keeping the factory, ah, 'Bed'! They were originally done in 2011, and only a few sold at the time as finding a...

Wraith interior - absolutely! I'd be down for a few of those, depending on the cost. One change I'd like to see would be to make that rear plate cover the battery wire hole. IMO, anyone who'd be detailing a Wraith to this extent would have already...
So! I've been way into some Re-Re Buggies lately- The Scorpion, Tomahawk, Wild One & the like. These are fairly inexpensive, classic cars that I've been wanting for some time. I get 'em & build 'em &...

These will ship Monday or Tuesday next, officially. I'm un-subbing from this thread, so anything else, shoot me an Email or PM. Cheers All! Chris REC
MmmKay, so! I knew it would happen eventually, I'm gettin' stretched for part ideas. Ergo and to wit, I'll be looking for sompin' you chaps have long wanted but not seen!
When I did the jellybean wheels, it got all crazy: It was obvious that there...
Awwwrighty Then! RC4WD is known for Stupendously *****in' parts, no? They recently issued this stunning V8 engine, and did all the major work- An impressive piece, to be sure. But, everything can be improved on, and at customer request I did up a...
Sadly, it is apparent that this run will not get close to the minimum number of units needed to make this run: 1st day's total is always most of the sales, and I cannot justify the investment of time and resources needed to make these happen. I am...
(NOTE- Pic with yellow fender is the 1:1 wheel mine replicate.)
PRICE DROP! I'm always candid with my customers, and after 1st day indicators on these, it seems the price is holding some chaps back. I'm no happy. You're no happy. But my business...

You WILL get 'That Feeling' upon opening these, I guarantee it.
At Last! I have not done anything for a bit, and these are why- Something I've wanted to do for several years, but could not afford to devote this much time to a single offering. The Ratcheting Poseable Hi-lLift Jack!
So! Over the last few years, REC has gained a rep for excellent quality and quirky parts for the Scaler & vintage markets. It is so named as I do whatever I feel like, the way I want to, and do little the way others do. This allows me total freedom...
So! This is an item that is needed now more than ever: The great 1/8 scale Venom GPV-1 motorcycles have been discontinued, and all parts support as well. Pieces can still be found online, with ONE exception- The rear sprockets. The one issue with...
OK fellow Scale enthusiasts! Our next offering is the ever-popular Alloy Scale Lug Nuts & Wrench Set! Thses have been many people's favourite product to date, and were the product that got REC off the ground. Why 'Final Run'? It is becoming more...

Agreed, you are a business I like to frequent. Chris, I sure appreciate your generosity on kicking down a freebie to a lucky member.
PREFACE: These are 1.9-inch versions of our recently released 1.55 wheels, so all pics are the same! Hey, I'm laz...I mean, busy! Also, no pics of 'Solid' wheels, or link- Email me or add a Paypal note if that's your choice.
So, our latest item is...

:shock: I guess that's pretty much how it went! As the Highlander says, there can be only one.....Chris REC
Yup! Yay! Hooray! So, our latest item is out: 'Super-Scale' 1.55 Alloy 4WD Wheels! Yes, I just did some wheels, but these are LOTS different- No effort spared to make these as real as humanly possible. The 20 degree angle on the faces. Separate,...
Submitted for your perusal is our next Ltd. Edition product: True Scale 1.55 Centerline-style, 'Dual-Finish' Alloy Wheels! These are 6061-T6 Billet, very solid for runners but very pretty for Shelf Queens. They accept any 1.55 tyre, of which there...

Thank'ee for that Mate! It never gets old hearing that, it's my focus. I just posted some NEW wheels that are also pretty, and different, with a giveaway- Maybe you could score those too??? Chris REC
At last! The Re-Release Kyosho Scorpion is out! For a hardcore vintage car guy like me, it's Christmas Day in July. Like many, I got my grubby hands on one ASAP, and want to make it even cooler; Ebay has nothing for upgrade parts. Factory options...

You're very welcome, and I'm glad you're happy- That's my goal1 Tamiya better hurry up & PM me, or I'll pick another winner- I shouldn't have to chase down winners. If they don't care enough to check....Chris REC
Woot! My Scorp came in, so naturally I'm all I want this&that&this&this&those... I magine a few of you chaps are also! So this is the place to chat about wanted/needed parts, pieces & such-like. I'm thinking I may start with a set of machined,...

The adjustable motor plate has issues- Stock, it uses flathead screws to mount flush. You can't slot those, or they only tighten in 2 small spots, so regular screws would be needed and the gear cover will not allow uise of these. The gear cover is...
The Venerable Scorcher! Yes, I've done a fair amount of bits for this car- It's because I love it. But, in building my latest car, I needed a 'Desert/Race'-type dashboard. My previous dash kit, while very popular and nifty, was not 'serious' enough....
A little something new for the venerable SB cars! I am doing an all-Alloy upgrade build on my Scorcher, using my pieces that have been done (But are no longer available) and on this one I took a hard look at wheels. I dawned on me that all previous...

Just placed an order for a set. Thanks, Chris. Will you have a giveaway thread as before?
Has anybody ever made a blower hole filler kit? I'm sure it's probably easy enough to fill in, but making that ridge in the center line up and look just right has always scared me.
