F355?

I haven't done any radio control racing since the late 80s. My first car was a Futaba FX10, had an RC10, ninja, then my last car was an RC10 graphite. Built the Graphite put in electronics, and motor. Then I don't remember what happened but it has sat for 35+ years. I can remember the unobanium, whi...

Trust me that graphite is a classic as it gets!

Way back in the 80's I raced an Optima very similar to this one. As a teenager, I just couldn't get enough of this car and modifying it just for the sake of changing it. I eventually hacked up some fiberglass plate and took some rear trailing arms from MIP to convert my Optima. I eventually had to g...

Excellent story. Hope you got a decent price for the Egress, considering it had vintage race pedigree and all.

Do we want another POS contest in April, or do we want something else before we come back to another POS contest? Most unfortunate broken RC ? Unfinished projects? Favorite electronics? Worst electronics? Random entry ?

Even if it was real, I think I'd prefer it over the semi still.

Convert the rear wheels to a set of tracks, and you have yourself a WWII half-track inspired buggy!

We always like seeing runners and excellent shelfers, but how about the projects that never seem to come to completion? This contest is for the projects that are stuck. Missing parts, broken parts, impossible to find parts, or lack of motivation to put the parts together. What does winning mean? Con...

A fairly rare Yokomo WCS YZ-10. This has been ongoing since 2014 where I'd buy some bits, forget about it, then buy some bits again and forget about it again. I probably have about 90% of it ready to go and went through a bit of push to finish it, but when I got screwed from L&L models on the tu...

Wait- you only want pics of one unfinished build? I have like 14 going at a time I wouldn't know how to decide.

Here is my Bulldog. It's been sitting like this for at least 6 years. It survived the move but now it seems I've lost the tires and wheels

And finally what I have planned to replicate.

Parma California Sport Truck. Hasn't moved under it's own power in 20 years. I did verify that everything still works. I swapped in matching Duratrax electronics and did a little work on it several years ago (battery strap and blue hardware), then lost interest again. The body has seen better days b...
