The good thing is purplish parts can always be re-dyed

If your looking for aluminum fasteners, this is the place http://www.fastener-express.com/aluminum-fasteners-nuts-washers.aspx

I ran this car for a little while, using the jelly beans and 'stock' re-re classic tires. Took 3rd out of 6 in stock buggy, using a 27t brushed as well. A lot had to do with me understanding the car and being able to toss it through the corners. I didnt clear the big doubles like the modern buggies,...

I hadn't notice until today that the old style 6565 case is still available. This probably has been discussed somewhere on the forums before but I'm not able to find it. Setting aside the differences in idler gear bearing placement, is the old style case better? In other words, would replacing the k...

I did this video years ago to demonstrate the poor fitment of the rere case and idler. I think both are at fault, as you can see by the video. My topshaft was not a problem. Some were. The typical top shaft problem is that the slipper hub hits the motor plate. Rere stock shown first Rere idler in 65...

We shall see - I put the idler gear in last night with the thrashed diff gear and...it worked great. Did all kinds of horrible things to it and it didn't strip out. Is it tearing up the mainshaft? Dunno, I'm going to run a few more packs through it and do a teardown. The aluminum shouldn't be wearin...

Sorry about the hiatus guys. Life got in the way and I've been scrounging more parts. The tungsten Cerakote came out awesome! It should be more durable than powder coat or Type 2 ano.

Cool to see this thread back to the top. I have run an indoor racing season with the B1M, with some success towards the end as I was sorting the car out - for those who want to check how it went, all details here: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=42474&start=45 Anyways - Having ...

$6.00 per pack...... plus shipping.

K&s 83060 is what I use. 3/16" x .049" wall tubing.

I agree, it's real easy to work with, bends nicely too.

Makes sense, part of the green new deal.

Curious to those who know about making this stuff, is there a reason they are not making them white, is this a cost thing? Seems like it would not be that hard. I had thought it was the molder doing a poor job cleaning the hoppers and injection equipment between shots. However, if poor maintenance ...

A bargain for sure! What's interesting is that it's black yet it's not for the World's car. Was AE thinking of re-releasing another classic but then changed their minds? Anyway, it's disappointing to see so many classic parts either out of stock or discontinued. The re-re era is over. When the clas...
