Re: ** POS Runner of the Month - June 2025 **

I think the solid rear axle and floppy front swing arm suspension makes them dead ringers for this type of poll. Grasshoppers, hornets, midnight pumpkin, lunchbox and all that are alike. The level of use and abuse only makes them more competitive for the win!

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Shat, thought I had a couple 16T's, but it's the 12T that I have a few. Thought I had ya covered there for a sec. Has anyone else ever noticed that 12T motors seem to outnumber other modifieds by a large margin? I mean, a 12T was the first mod that I ever bought. That was because it was the lowest ...

New AE RC10B84 / RC10B84D 4wd buggy

Just dropped in the midst of all the vintage stuff. New team associated RC10B84/84D 4wd buggy. Looks really nice as always, but I'll let you guys find out the price on your own. I stayed away from 1/8th off road due to sticker shock, now it looks like 1/10 off road is getting there also. For now I'l...

Re: 6 Gear idler

Being delrin, that would make them harder and initially tougher than the nylon idlers, but also more brittle and likely to fracture under very high stress, right?

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

I thought the flourescent colors looked cool in the pre dawn light though O O O ... How about Cosmic RC Racing? Flourescent barriers, flourescent painted cars... then, just... Jim Carrey Ice Meme.jpg That would be pretty fun In the dark with only glowing barriers, fun for onroad maybe. Offroad, wit...

Re: RC18R fans?

Very cool. I was racing a B4 and T4 seriously at the time when these came out I think and always thought those would be perfect for bashing and just enjoying during free time. Well, when I eventually went looking for one to actually bash and enjoy during free time, they were discontinued so I picked...

Re: MIP Legend rere

Friendly bump to this thread. With AE making the red powder coated cliff lett chassis available separately, I sense many legend replicas ( okay, maybe just a few who are willing to tackle it) on the horizon. Can't help ya with the buggy nose plate though........

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

With all of my rc10 runners, new and old, using modern hex and offset wheels in the rear for now, I was excited to finally see the pioneer wheels available. Had to get one of each color! I do like those wheels a lot. Wonder what the weight is vs the standard? I would guess just a touch heavier due ...
