This car looks killer now, and frankly it needs the white rims on it for contrast. I've seen guys do the whole-color blocking-monochromatic thing but in most cases I think the contrast adds more pop.

Hi guys!

My name is Fredrik. I live in Sweden with my wife and daughter.
I got my first real car in a Ultima 2 (2nd gen/yellow) for christmas when I was...

Hello Walfre, I know this is an old post but I feel responsible being that you purchased parts from me to progress this build. Hope all is well and would like an update if possible...

This is my hop-up hotshot. Months ago minimini and I spotted this rc-lohas hotshot modification kit and we were drooling, so we had a deal and done a joint project. He and I both got a hotshot + the conversion kit.

We emailed many ideas and spent...

Excellent question Bloodclod :lol:

The 'M' in the wing stand is for adjustability. The distance between the wing mount was 39.5mm, I found it not so easy to bend a 2mm wire to that exact distance. Bend a 'M' allows some adjustability with my less...

I see that RC Lohas have released a repro version of the Red Fox. See here:

I must say that I really rate what they are doing by re-creating the vintage Hot Trick parts. I understand that Hot Trick were not to everyone's taste bitd but it is great...

Just wait Lowgear, eventually someone will be reproducing Turbo Hoppers. :lol: Nothing is safe.

I posted before about finding a new in box Hot Trick Red Fox (see here:
Well, I finished the car up awhile back and I'm posting a few pics of the Fox on the shelf. It was a fun build and I like the way it turned out. Looks good on the official Hot...

Transamman908, they seem to be fine like they are. I always like my shelfers to at least have the potential to work. There is a big nut behind each shock. I see how you could mount them both outside (I may try that to see how it looks to me). It...

Backstory: Two cars in particular are my nostalgic favorites, the Optima and the Fox. My buddy and I both got two used cars as teens in the mid to late 80s (me the Optima and him the Fox). My car was faster and handled better, but broke more. I...

I picked this old thing up at a swap meet, does anyone know what exactly these are and what the scoop is?

This thread reminds me of the Fox my younger brother had. After suffering his second Tamiya chassis failure I talked him into ordering the basic Hot Trick Fox kit. I think I had some of their parts on my frog at that point. The HT chassis proved...

Since everyone is complaining about the lack of threads regarding new projects, I was able to muster up some time to get this project just about completed, short of bending the wing wire and putting on some shocks. This project has been center stage...

I figured that. If Mr Lexan is waiting for a certain body , this should be cool. I always liked how those rough rider variations fit on a Frog. (Thanks for the Yoke-RPS you sent me a few weeks back by the way. Actually notably better quality than...
