Honestly a great video! Once it was going it looked awesome skipping around on the dirt, makes me wonder why there isn't a Rally class! I guess a tiny bit more appropriately for 10L, what about dirt oval? Slap some 2.2 truck tires on that thing and it should have enough ground clearance. Now to figu...

I wonder if my local off road track will let me run a pan car in the 2wd truck class...

The more I think about it the more I want to keep both. My main reasoning was that I'm a college student, but I'm not really hurtin' for money, just broke. But I can at least save them for later. I'm in Akron, Ohio. The closest On-road place is about 45 minutes away. It's not fair. There is an off r...

I just bought these two old Pancars. My guess is an RC10LSS and an RC10L4. Am I right? I think I'm going to keep one to play with and sell the other, but I'm not sure which. I think I'm going to keep the LSS. And idea how much these are worth? I bought them for 72 dollars together. The guy didn't se...

I think that's an intesting project... that will end up in something that is anything but "the very best Vintage RC10 buggy possible", simply because you've had the best of the best refining that platform for 10yrs to make it what it became in the end... And a few of the recipes you're me...

You could make a jig and "lay up" some carbon fiber mat and resin it just like you would with fiberglass. That way you could get the angle needed for the front end and not have to bolt on an aluminum nose. Thats not a bad idea. I could actually use the aluminum tub as a mold. I can build ...

are the smaller inner holes the mounting locations for the stealth transmission?

Ok well, the chassis came in, and its not so bad. actually Its kinda refreshing to see that the guy did a pretty good job with drilling the holes. I'm gonna build on this until I buy a sheet of carbon fiber to cut up. So here it is. I think I'm gonna strip the red off of it and re anodize it. I'll u...

Yeah, I'm bidding on a pretty molested, drilled out, painted A stamp chassis. It ends in a couple days, I think it'll go for pretty cheap. And I looked at some more pictures, and the kickup isn't an issue at all. I was under the impression that the kick up was actually a part of the entire chassis, ...

Does anybody have blueprints or dimesnions and hole spacings for the chassis pan? I think what I want to do is have the main portion of the chassis made from a single pplate of carbon fiber and build a hinge into a machined nylon bulkhead up front so that I can adjust the kickup. And I think I will ...

The chassis kick up is a good point. So I guess if I want carbon fiber, I would have to go with a retail chassis, which is stiff enought without the top plate. Unless I lightened the crap out of it and it required more stiffness. How is the carbon chassis structurally? It looks kinda weak to me rela...

I'm new here, so yeah. Just putting that out there. But anyway, my goal is simple. I am about to purchase an X Y table for my drillpress so I will essentially have a 3 axis Milling machine to machine my own plastic, aluminum and carbon fiber parts. I want to design and build new chassis and suspensi...
