love this stuff. great job everyone hope this is the next big thing in rc..... ebay they are 1/8 scale wheels/tires from a monogram or revell hot rod model. best part was they were painted blk and molded in red so i gave em a weathered look very easily :) very cool, the "weathered look "is...

thanks for info and help.. I thought the same thing and almost bought a jrtx,or jrxpro front tower for my junior t . problem is junior 2 and junior t are same towers. was going to get a pro se mount cause think it said its a .6 shock body like the junior t but the arms on that car are different then...

Rebuilding 2 losis(1 junior t converted to jrxt and a jrxpro se mix part buggy converted to a junior2), as of now they have junior2/t front shocktowers.Been trolling ebay for a deal on a graphite/fiberglass font tower but I'm not sure what works (been an ae guy most my life). Think jrxt and jrx pro ...

Sad to hear any damage from sandy and hope all is ok now. on the other side I just love crusty rc pics. its like they tell a story (like a lot of my rcs) . good luck on the build its lookin good

so cool, almost looks like it could be set up fwd or rwd mid motor

Looks like you're close, why not wire up and let us know how you like it? I have heard die hard oval guys (which I'm not) say that different length arms left to right leads inevitably to different spring rates and a host of handling quirks, which makes sense to me. Maybe doing some maths re: levera...

new stuff is faster but i dont like any new rcs with fat shocks and can only run shorty lipo packs.

I love mixing rc10 parts and making my own rc10s. (like my 15 inch wide rc10 http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=32513) . a trip to my old dirt oval rc track got me thinking of the offset oval rc10 i always wanted to build . so i said what the heck get the parts bin out and do a mock up...

out of interest though, what are some other industries doing the re-release game?

yamaha sr400 (one of my fav new street bikes)
honda cb1100
Triumph Scrambler ..Launched in 2006 but still a new rere of a old bike
2016 Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin

im thinking that my entire collection will get re-released at some stage. kinda putting me off searching and paying big money for cars now good i hope this goes for everyone. got out of the hobby a bit cause i could not stand the ebay prices. the point of the hobby is some cheap fun not spending re...

blackfoot 3 rims with sand paw truck tires should work great

I personally would stick to the 2.25 trans as parts are available for it. The RPM conversion is discontinued and has been known to eat gears. With modern BL power the 2.25 ratio is pretty much a non existant issue now. this is so true.. never understand running rpm trans. i get the ratio thing but ...

love the old kyosho trucks.. few options for tires 1 think big boss hirider double dare wheel tires will work.. 2 try a 2.2 setup i like tamiya wheels (mudblaster 2 wheels) or a traxxas 2.2 front rim. 3 stock big brute wheels and ive seen the old spike big brute tires pop up on ebay . id forget abou...

wow 9 years, thanks to everyone that keeps this site going
