What year did AE use the black idler gear for the 1st generation grarbox? I know the first kits came out with the white gear but I do not know when they stopped using it.. Anyone?

i like spray nine, but the greased lightning works, simple green as daddeo stated. i haven't found a cleaner yet that hurt the plastic. i even used lacquer thinner to get the grease off the spur gear on this car. I always use the odorless solvent that you can buy from home depo. Realy take yhe grea...

This car (DOGFIGHTER) originally came out with a front one way because it did not have any front diff. I had them before the RPS version came out. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m172/qctirecenter/25.jpg This was my YOKE on HOTLAPS wheels and DELTA SHOCKS all around. http://i104.photobucket.com/a...

Exactly the same for myself and my younger brother. He ran a rear A-arm car that was similar to mine, and then stepped up to a trailing arm car. We ran ONLY stock back then, but this one will be set up and restored as a full mod 2wd car. I even get to break oout my Checkpoint motors... :D That is w...

If you relocate the shocks to the outer most arm, your rear suspension will become softer and might cause the front to push (under steer) actually your suspension will become stiffer if the shock is moved to the outer hole on the suspension arm. i wouldnt use fuel tubing as a down stop for the shoc...

All the while I thought I was younger than you.

I am IN!!!
This will be exciting. I've seen some ugly RC10s on ebay and they look ...can't even say it.

I am going to be having molds made for a few original driver figures for some vintage Kyosho buggies. My friends out at Fox Lite Plastics are doing the molds and vacuum forming them as well. I can a lot of small molds like this made in one run for an insanely cheap price. btw, you know what i would...

As far as I can recall, that is a modified Super Champ using a Parma VW. I still have more photos.
