Awesome! Thanks for the info! Any advice on set up? Does it need a rear shock?

Just picked this up for cheap to use for carpet racing and I'm not sure what I have now that I brought it home. The front suspension looks like 12ls, but the chassis looks like 12l, as the front of the chassis does not have body mounts? Is that correct? Also no rear shock? Purple anodizing? This car...

That's cool! Didn't think about the size and space of the wheels but it makes sense.

So how did it go? I did a similar setup on my slash but it vibrated so bad as to be unusable:( Any advice?


Joey

Wouldn't a larger pinion help tame the wheelies? Would increase your top speed though...

Just yesterday I mounted a camera on my trail honcho and ran it fpv. Lots of fun!

Awesome find Joey!!! Too bad it will be relegated to Shelf Queen Status.... I kind of agree with VitaminK, they were meant to run. I know space is an issue....but if anything i would have one for shelf quees status and one that you can run. Thats what did with the DS cars...one nitro and two electr...

I found a gorgeous barely used rc10gt the other day. Motor was all goopy solid but I got it freed up. Never tried nitro before! Chassis is real nice, only minimal scratches. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v633/joey48442/D72D0602-BABE-4E58-9BD5-FAA85438E869_zpsyyucolum.jpg http://img.photobucket.c...

Those are some sweet rims. Something about "shelf queens" makes me sad. These are performance machines...they wanna run! ;) I feel ya! If I had a nice track to easily run on I probably would. But, for the sake of rc10 everywhere, be glad I have a traxxas slash to bash in the street. I hav...

Found this decent looking guy on Craigslist last night http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v633/joey48442/131D5606-317D-49EB-B0E8-C5278E8A7FFC_zpse9kfnze1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v633/joey48442/5B483419-8971-4E3A-BE83-CA960520F77E_zpsjle7vjzx.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v633/jo...

I wonder if this would help?

It's a good start! Thx

Awesome!

I paid 75 for a graphite chassis 6 gear the other day. Also came with some nice aluminum wheels which looking at sold auctions on eBay should sell for my purchase price on their own. Granted, my car took a lot of elbow grease to get back into nice condition, I probably have ten hours of my own labor...

Not sure how exactly period correct they are, but this car wasn't driven since the early nineties, so I don't think they are much newer than that.

I did, thanks;) I had to go through the main site.

You can also click on "advanced" at the top right of ebay's main page (along side the "search" button). Then on the next page click on "find a member" in the bottom box on the left. :roll: there goes Jason trying to simplify things again :mrgreen: Todd Not for me! At l...
