I realized tonight that I did actually move this build along since the last chassis pics. Turnbuckles and ball cups are on. I also had a pair of AE universals chrome plated and installed. Oh, and the nose tubes.

A current build...

I typically use .078, unless I can't get it through a particular wing mount. Then I'll use .062.

I just use pliers.

Spent some time at jwscab's house yesterday. My wife's car was at the dealership for service and it's real close to his place. On the way home I decided to swing in to the hobby shop in side a farmers market to see the owner. I've known him since I was a kid and worked at his hobby shop that was in ...

Could've been mixed up when the guy was reinstalling them with the titanium pins..... hard to say. And th...

It's a 1 piece chassis, the kickup is "molded" in.

So a few days ago I found out about a car I had never heard of before, an RC10B3x. FB_IMG_1671071977619.jpg The car was run at the at the postponed 2001 Ifmar Worlds in 2002, and seems to have been raced at other tracks in 2002. Here is what Kurt Wenger mentioned on FB about it's specs: It was a new...

I think most/all other factory drivers used the "RC10 Worlds" type: https://www.facebook.com/commerce/products/rc10-worlds-shell--mirage-turbo-associated/5276677219060516?referral_code=mini_shop_profile_plus_header_cta&merchantId=2074111539302325&ref=mini_shop_storefront I don't b...
