^ Juicedcoupe - Interesting. I didn't know that was a thing with ceramic bearings. The cost of ceramics is kinda crazy, but guys running modern stock classes swear by them as a big improvement. I was pretty shocked by how much resistance there was in both XX4's when I spun the drivetrain. Maybe they...

I'm a big fan of the Jconcepts finned turnbuckles. These are the slightly bulkier 3.5mm Ti units in black, fitted with Lunsford ends. Lunsford and Jconcepts both make such impressive products. The appearance and finish of Lunsford titanium hardware is better than anything else in the RC market that ...

I mostly just built it to what I thought looked nice. The Hara motor is one of my favorites, and just looked too cool not to use. I made some...

Rarest RPM part...the unicorn "steering enhancement kit" for theRC10 Ultramold buggy and worlds front end kit. We never put this in the catalog, it was offered to a few dedicated support racers and the occasional customer calling in for set up advice for the buggy. steeringenhancementkit.j...

A litte thread bump with a few pictures of this JRXT with a A&L Roadkill body.
