The SACS front end is brilliant in its simplicity. :D Reviews are mixed on whether it improved performance on the tracks of the day, but it definitely did function as designed. It was standard on my Cougar 2000 (a 95 Team car, iirc), but I was not qualified to judge its effectiveness. I hit the wall...

It poured in today!! Two RC10 rere tubs, another Fiero GTP (which seem to be coming out of the woodwork these days), and a mass of Tami 3-speed parts including Hilux stepside wheels, tires, axles, SCs, chassis, grill, brushguard, shocks/springs/mounts and Bruiser trans and wheels / tires.

Thumbs, Derek, and Me in 1978.

I wonder what they're thinking?

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...

Headed to Utah for a no prep race this weekend and decided to stop on the way at the Golden Spike museum. They run replicas of the Jupiter and 119 every day. They were built in the 80s as diesel fired and converted in the 90s to their proper fuel sources- wood fired for the Jupiter and coal for the ...

Went down to Draper, Utah for the Salt City Clash no prep drag race where one of our team members won the whole dang thing! $8100 cash. Super fun day!

Cut, painted and fitted a Penguin RC undertray and wing to the Optima.

This sale is kinda crazy.. At first I was just going to order the roller chassis then decided to get the black Drag Truck. It looks awesome in black with the Losi Garage theme plus all the electronics for $150..can’t beat that!

Alright, I've procrastinated all I can as it pertains to updating the forum software. It's supposed to be done at least once a year but I've let it go over two years now. A number of new versions have come out during that time, and we've fallen almost too far behind at this point. So with that being...

I think I got the tooth count, Mod , pressure angle and dimensions correct. Finding the pressure angle almost broke my brain. :shock: Here's a trick for you, go on sdp-si.com and find a gear with the tooth count and pitch you need, they have cad models for all of em. Stick a hole in the center of t...

My gold pan is alive! After an hour of fiddling, adjusting, soldering, re-soldering, investigating, and frustration, it's running! After further investigation, the tiny negative lead on the servo pin connector on the esc was glitching out, frayed and coming loose, so I yanked it from the connector a...

I helped a friend clean up a Marketplace Stampede he bought for his son's birthday. We haven't turned wrenches on RC cars together since building our RC10GT's 25 years ago.
