Nice Hotshot! I have those same wheels on a Supershot. They were made in the UK from a guy on ebay. He was selling these for a decent price about 4 years ago. Those Thorp spindles are a bear to find. I sadly sold mine last year

If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

Very dusty car cleaned up, seems fairly unrun, and since I don't run nitro cars it will be converted to electric. The body was dressed up using the original sticker sheet remains that were included.

This is...

I've kept my eyes peeled but never found anything except a set of gold kingpins....those were Trinity, though, if I remember correctly.

I just received this 10T today and I have to say that it has impressed me. From the ESC to the rear shock tower, it's definitely a beast. In my neck of the woods this truck would have been the Bomb Diggity back in the day. I got a couple photo's of...

My very first RC grade car was a first gen Utlima my Dad offered me in 1987'ish and I had a blast with it for several years until it was replaced with a TopCat and I started racing at club level.
Since then, I have badly wanted to build one with all...

At my local anodizer, gold is more of a carburetor color, and champagne, while I haven't tried it yet, the samples look perfect for this.

I built myself a nice Tamiya Top Force.
I have never been a Tamiya fan , but i always liked the Top Force.

Last post

Now that's a quality build. I've always been a fan of the Tamiya Top Force family. Now, I just need to convince my wife that I need one... but seriously, top notch build. The blue an gold colour combination is spot on.

HI!... This one might not need to much to restore it to original condition. But still going to tear it down, clean it and go through it.

Last post

I was thinking that was the look the driver might have 2 seconds before ramming into a wall. :mrgreen:
