My most wild creation yet trying to utilize modern (available) drivetrain and front mount servo (drag specific) for the ultimate is front weight bias, onroad models will have standard servo mount location. Picked up the final piece of the puzzle today thanks to Andy Jacobson slinging some classic st...

More pictures? No problem! Well, small problem. Kind of annoying that the forum software will only accept small pictures, so I have to resize everything. Another fact of technology progressing- all new cellphones take MASSIVE sized pictures, even on their smallest settings. Oh well... Anyways, here ...

That Pro Mod car looks very cool with its exposed ring and pinion gear!

This afternoon, I'm just playing in the dirt.
I raced an RC10 with this Renegade body and wing about 35 years ago; further proof that I never throw anything away.

Made a hump pack for my Hornet. Kinda shocked you can still buy NiCad batteries in 2023

Got a delivery yesterday from my great mate Mark / Mad Racer ... some bodies I can use for my T3 race truck. Not sure which I will make fit just yet, but either should work. Silver one is a cab-forward from a 22T, and the unpainted is designed to suit the XXX-NT... but some quick placing on my T3 ch...

I'm gonna build something like this: Screenshot_20231003_135336_Samsung Notes.jpg Screenshot_20231003_135323_Samsung Notes.jpg Looks like a TRX-1 on a TRX-3 prototype chassis from the limited pics. So not going to be a true replica. Color pic: Seems to be a carbon adapter plate on the rear bulkhead ...

Added translucent RPM 7031 Up-travel limiters to the rear and Bud's wing mounts. I used a small JG shock shaft spacer on the lower rear rod end since it has the pivot ball. At least it's a slider now.

Very early 2000s.

I've started experimenting with airbrushing. I definitely need more practice and need to figure out a better way to clean up the spray tool between colors (7 colors including backers!), but the paint job turned out better than I anticipated. The mighty mini needed some non hand-me-down clothes. . PX...

So there I was, innocently browsing the ole' eBay for an RC10T roller, shocked at how brutally-expensive they've become, when I stumbled across this gem. From the body it just looked like an old T3 RTR roller. A million of them out there, right? But then I dug deeper and started looking at the pictu...

Thank you. It's been a real treat to source the parts and build it up. I was torn on what wheels to use, but I knew in 1994 the majority of competitive racers were using 2.2 rears. As much as I wanted to use my HPI Super Stars the rear are 2.0 :( I decided to use TQ 2.175 rears with Pro-84 Y design,...

It was NIB day! A FX-10 and a Taiyo kart.
