At best part of a ton that post must become a really big target

Today.

Well, the postman looked A LOT like my brother today! He brought me my original, childhood Tamiya Blackfoot from like 1992. Original box, paperwork and all. He's been hoarding it in his basement with his RCs for quite a few years and gave it back to me today. I never really had much interest in brin...

My Futaba FXT. Mostly stock with a few small upgrades. It has Schumacher silicone nitride diff balls, Tamiya CVD's, turnbuckles, and upgraded servo saver. Swapped the rear tires for Schumacher VEE-2's. All Futaba electronics, per manual: R112 receiver, S148 servo, and MC 210 esc. I added a Pro-Trix ...

Original 'Race Prep' AYK Radiant Mid conversion – one of the rarest cars in my collection I would think. They produced less than 50 of these 'Race Prep' conversions (according to Steve Dunn) before AYK approached them about making it an official kit, thus bringing about the Pro Radiant. The '87 Roms...

Original Wild One restored with a twist.

G motors have the same palpable sensation produced by fireworks. You'll hear and feel them.

Also, received a few more parts to build my Ultima GT5.

Got some excellent items for some future projects.

I picked this car up a couple years ago now exactly as you see it. Well actually it’s probably a little dirtier now from just sitting on a shelf in the garage. Since there’s not too many AE parts on this one I figured we could all have a little fun calling out the aftermarket parts and their manufac...

I always swore I'd never enter a car that loses a second time, but when you've lost as many times as I have it's hard not to. 10LSO. I just really like this car.

Throwing in my wild child 10L with Novak SS5300 motor. It needs better gripping tires. At part throttle and 25mph, grabbing full throttle causes the tires to break loose resulting in an immediate 'reversal of fortunes'. I probably need to find a longer running area so I can creep it up to a higher s...

There's a lot of entries I'd like to vote for this month. I know the AYK has really nice bodywork, but I really think not showing the underbits is not doing it justice. Sure there's a link, but I would like to have had that view of it here. Hopefully it has an AYK motor under there.

I say that a lot

Monticello, NY

Just picked up two NIB 240s you see on the right. That makes 3 that will end up in Shelf Queens...
