Changed the motor position, and it's better on the contact side (can't go on the other side, as it would go against the roll cage)

I figure a car that can do 85mph should also look the part...

Quick look at the new shell which is a replica of my orginal white racing shell from around 1989. I have gone for many of the original decals i used, including those from Penn Models who used to provide me with hop-up parts, plus a few additional ones to suit the pink nature of the car(!) :lol: I wi...

Got back on track and have the tub to where I think I want it. I tossed the redesign to BL, and just cut a big ol' hole in the side and will run a brushed open end ball motor. It is close and sketchy, but I will work out the details later. It also makes part of the tub super thin and weakens the who...

New kitten from a local shelter - My wife named him Tux. I’m surprised at how quickly he made friends with our 3 dogs.

The original Kyosho adds show the inner cover being black, even though the manual says nothing about it. So I gave it a couple coats of Duratrax basic black and sealed everything away. Kind of a shame to cover all that up. Screenshot_20210709-183508_Gallery.jpg And with the body sitting on it. 20210...

Something I have been working on for the past few weeks. May very well be the height of my clinical OCD lol. Have been 3D printing and painting everything for a scale garage scene for the Felony. Everything is 3D printed, then painted/detailed. Pictures on the walls are resized pictures I took up on...

LaTrax Brilliant LTX-40 'Vette. Kind of a hobby grade / toy grade hybrid. My favorite part of this car is that when they built it, they didn't put a vintage C3 body on it, they just put a modern Corvette body on it.

Finally finished a 3D printing project I started about 3 weeks ago. Bought a pair of side tables for the theater room with the intent of doing a diorama on each one of them. First one I wanted a Wizard tower with a Kraken attacking it and a dragon sitting atop the tower watching on. Pretty much ever...

Helped a buddy of mine's kid get his Slash squared away today. Steering was funky and the steering was the throttle. Fastball right down the middle. Disconnect the servo saver, turn on, center the L/R adjustment knob, align the wheels, connect the servo saver, adjust additional slop out with turnbuc...

So I picked up a vintage, hand-built drag car on Ebay a while back and just got to unpacking things. Found this wicked homebrew set up. I'm assuming it's a slot car handle out back? Thought I'd share!

Yeah slot car grip, Parma sold those as a kit for modding a stick radio but most people I’m sure just used what they had laying around from their slot days.

Finally found the pics

I remember after Masami Hirosaka won a championship with his Schumacher Cat, he did a victory lap around the track with a stick radio using his feet.

Finally... Some VIDEO action of the TRX-1 at my local indoor track! Running a VERY mild 17.5T setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYqUIvg7A34 HYqUIvg7A34 If the link doesnt work, or someone can help me out... the video can be found on "the tube" by typing "Traxxas TRX-1 Retro buggy&...
