Anyone try a modern 17.5 brushless in a older 2.25 stealth transmission. I would be really curious to know how it went. It should be a lot easier to gear because of the lower transmission ratio. Please let me know if you have done this, how it felt on the track.

sometimes you just need to think more -

J Concepts won at their first ROAR Nationals - in Stock back in 2004

one year I think they won stock - but I wasn't sure it was their first attempt or not. back with the TRX-1 it was list 87 or 88. Thanks for the info - TQ won it's first National title today - at our first ever ROAR Nationals - just curious if it was done before. Except for Associated in the modern e...

Sorry, should have stated it better - i was talking ROAR Nationals - but thanks for the worlds side of it - hadn't thought about that. Kyosho didnt enter the electric worlds before '87 - interesting because I know they were around with motors and such.

I am looking for some history stuff - 2 questions about r/c companies and national championships. Since 1990, has any r/c company, in its first ever attempt at designing a chassis ever won an electric off road national championship? Has it been done since Associated won their first national champion...

Triple x4 maybe prototyped at 2001 worlds with an '02 official release. I ran a xxx4 at the '03 worlds.

I have great memories of the Dominator I had back in the early '90s. Didn't know anything about it except - put a modified motor in and try and hold on. It would be cool to have a Dominator on the shelf - if I could afford to do that sort of thing.

Going to close the page - it looks like they reviewed a Predator in the Sept. 96 RCCA - if anyone has a subscription to the article archives it would be interesting to see what they said back then.

Doing a little more research - it should be the July 96 issue of RCCA - it has Matt Lee's Losi on the cover and a hit between Kinwald and Pavidis. For some reason I thought it was earlier like 93-94. I went for like 4 straight years. Anyway. Whether its RCCA or another mag - I would be interested to...

Does anyone have the issues of RCCA or Racer where they covered Brian Kinwald using the Predator. I believe it was 1993 or 1994. I know he used the car at the Florida WinterChamps (I was there). I am not sure if he used it at the ROAR Nats that year or not. Or if anyone articles on the older Predato...

When I used to work for Trinity, they did have a line of motors that was sold scrictly for Japanese racing regs. I don't know about the one you pictured. The ones they had when i worked there - '99 to '01, were 23 turn with bearings and adjustable timing. If I remember right at the time the 23 turn ...

Wow - the memories looking at this car!! If I remember right it was 1996, there used to be a huge electric off road race in Florida in Feb - WinterChamps, I think is what they called it - huge event, all the heavy hitters there. I was running for Associated/Reedy and went to this race for the 1st ti...
