Re: Turbo Optima mid SE
Started to place electronics. My Novak 1 is pretty close to the correct time period, little older than the car but close enough. It also fits fairly well and the wiring is basically headed in the correct direction. I tried several other ESCs that I have but it was this or a Futaba MC230cr. The Futa...

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE
One man's failure is another man's victory. To my eye, ALL of the ano work you've done on this car looks spectacular!
I can imagine this car displayed in an art gallery. It's incredibly beautiful.

Re: Create a Porsche 934 replica in 4 steps
Thanks Chuck! Back in the day, I designed and built a rear motor, straight axle, pan car for oval racing - I wanted to try something different. It featured a 4-link rear suspension and beam front axle arrangement. I spent weeks building it and raced it one time. I really didn't like the handling so ...

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE
Yeah, I agree with Derek. Those Platinums look great as they are.
However, it's your car so build it your way. You'll never receive a thumbs down from me. You might even want to blue ano the shock bodies.

Posting up my RC10 mid motor conversion from Tekin, with the active camber link activated. In addition it is also sporting a Schumacher SACS (active caster) front suspension kit made for RC10. Back in the days mid motor was rather exotic, but became the golden standard on high grip tracks in the 200...

JOSH STRAUSS TRIBUTE BUILD. This is a tribute build to a old friend of mine, Derek, and also Thumb's best friend growing up. (He won't speak to any of us now, he is a rich judge and lawyer) He was a rich kid and had this car prepared like you see here back in 1989. We all wanted it so bad but had no...

Re: Clonewald GFG-10
I need to get some wing buttons and bend a wire, but otherwise this one is done. The MCI decal set is pretty nice and definitely was the finishing touch I needed.
