Re: Forum News & Discussion

Here we are exactly one month later and the board started lagging badly again. Looked at the server monitor and yup, it's at 100% load. :? I logged into Cloudflare to try and figure out what was going on, and after much detective work it seemed like we were being inundated by Hong Kong. I blocked al...

Re: RC-10T (Vintage)

Normally this wouldn't be allowed outside of the Buy/Sell/Trade section but since you're not actually selling anything, and it's for pickup only, It can be allowed.

The only problem is though that new members aren't allowed to use the PM system, so it can't be used to make arrangements.

I got some completely alone time which was the best part. :mrgreen:

Re: RC10GT Pull Start Replacement

I fixed the link for you. That's weird that Amazon links don't work unless they're wrapped in the URL tags. They must be blocking them otherwise.

Re: Picture of the day. (Taken by you)

No pic but on the subject of wildlife, we had a lone turkey being super annoying today. It kept coming up on the deck multiple times even after scaring it away. Then I was standing in the kitchen when out of the corner of my eye I see something through the front room window. The turkey flew up onto ...

Re: A LITTLE MORE LOSI HISTORY

I had no idea about Variflex skateboards connection to Losi, wow! I remember them being all over back in the day but only after becoming 'toy grade.' Skateboarding became very popular here in the northeast for a time in what feels like the very early '90s? Anyway, I took an interest in it to the poi...

Re: Bored? Come To The Chit / Chat Thread

Ouch! Back in the early to mid '90s I was hitting a Wiffle ball across the front yard when a gust of wind came out of nowhere and blew the ball at a right angle lodging it in the kitchen window. :shock: I didn't get in trouble as my mother saw it happen due to standing at the sink of said window. :l...

For whatever reason, Mooneyes is huge in Japan. I think it's the aesthetics of the company they gravitate towards.

Re: CV Joints for Rocky/Raider and Other Hardware Alternatives

I should have been more specific by saying if you add the actual URL of the spreadsheet to your post, it will embed it. The current one in your post is the share link which is slightly different. Here's the link to add to your post if you'd like the spreadsheet to display: https://docs.google.com/sp...

You can add the spreadsheet right to your first post if you like by simply copy/pasting the link.

Ooops my bad, I thought you bought it. I was being distracted when I read your post, and deciphered it wrong. Even with how awesome it is, yeah I think they're asking the moon for it.

Re: NIKKO General Discussion Thread

Yeah, they jumped on the hobby-grade bandwagon for a short period of time.

That is one of the nicest examples of a Brat I've ever seen. Just incredible! :shock: :) I just looked it up on eBay, and you must have REALLY wanted it. :mrgreen:

Re: RC10 6x6 minus two "worlds" rally car

It's not vintage or a re-release but a modern vehicle, so I moved it here to the catch-all section we have for them. Glad to have you back. :)

Re: Ultimate Vintage Brushed Motor Reference Guide (Discussion Topic)

I have some (all?) of their winds added to the reference guide but have yet to come across any additional information on them such as part numbers. Apparently they were based in London England, and made other hop-ups mainly for Schumacher it seems. https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=6652 A per...
