OH NOOO.. not on this one This buggy was made with all white and gold material to be as vintage as possible..If i Dyed parts and changed gold it would not be as cool sexy ( well to me that as). the next versions of the buggy might be different...More black and carbon fiber ...black alum....

Nice work.

The CDB track is a-OK for 1/10 buggy.

Don't be afraid of coming out and mixing it up with all the others.

The set up was to soft. and the car did not turn very quickly. I first changd to 1.5 in 0 out in rear and this helped out. The gold shocks looked hot butt just become so inconsistent after years of use I played 5 deg thicker oil fronnt and back and this helped. This helped the role. The track had so much traction . i had brought a 94 worlds car for parts and used the shocks off of it. This was a great upgrade to the rig. smoother and much more consistent though out the whole track this had great flight abilitty to. The triple jump in air control was COOL. I lost time but it looked good..I also put some wt in nose ant this helped entering corners.

A couple of the old timers were thinking they would bring theirs out since the first race and seeing how well the re-re worlds cars and my original team car got around, yours should be even faster!

I heard some good things from racers on the new track design being very 10th friendly. I think it will be fun to try this car out there.

If you decide to sell a kit, I'm in! It would be cool to run a vintage mid motor instead of my B5m, lol!

So tell me what U all think...Do a conversion kit? carbon fiber for black plastic, or More gold g10 looking....the only part that is not easy for me to duplicate is the top shaft for the gearbox.....as long as the longer upper shaft for the 4.2 slipper is available ..

I'd take a G10 version, chassis/towers/motor brace.

Some local cars here in Australia

Image
Leading local carpet racer, owner is a good driver who laps it faster than modern stock cars. Made up from a RC10W RE RE with original stealth.

My project (purchased from Fastang-thanks for a great car:)
Image

The two lower photos are my car. Had the idea many years ago after seeing a tekin MM kit but never got around to it. The idea sat on the shelf until I saw your gold car. Nice work by the way. Then I found a local guy beat me to it with the car at the top. He's done a first rate job on it. It looks factory - even has a fan mount milled into the brace.

Mine is just at mockup at this stage, I'll be getting a few carbon/alloy parts milled. It's designed to run a rear shock setup like yours with the choice of front mount shocks also. This gives the choice of 3 wheelbase settings between 281-289mm. You can see my alignment marks on the chassis which indicates how far off the stealth originally was mounted.

With your rear mounted shocks do you now have rear hub caster? If so, how does it drive? If not, how did you overcome this?
