I think Shaggy would say, "Zoinks!!!"

I think it would do fine with 2s and brushless.

If you run NiMh, the Novak ESC would do fine. It's spec'd for 6 to 10 cells of NiCd cells (lower mAh than NiMh). I wouldn't run the brushed motor for more that 5 to 7 min at a time or the brushed motor will get overheated.

For running, I'd think about adding a wide front bumper to protect all the front end stuff. I make mine out of kydex, and a similar width to the wide RPM bumpers. Those RPM bumpers for T/T2/GT sometimes pop up for sale at ok prices too.

That only took 7 years to build. It's practically an overnight project.

It is very nicely done. It was in my top 3 choices to vote for.

A few final pics. The TRA2615 wing buttons are both inexpensive and nice. That's my preferred combination.

That looks great! It also looks like a fun track.

Got some old school goodness. I need to come up with a receiver and a set of crystals to find out if this radio works. It's as weird as I remembered it being.

For the 6 gear evolution, putting the diff where it belongs between the metal axle drive gears basically results in making the 6 gear into a 3 gear setup. The MIP setup sure does look like it might have pushed this configuration forward for the RC10.

Oh that horrific crash!

I like that oval. An actual RC race track somewhere?

Is there a body that's a good fit for this chassis?

I need to live somewhere that just has public RC race tracks sitting out in the open waiting to be used.

Just to be clear, in the US they now sell Scooby Snacks packaged as kids snacks, and they are delicious.

Hmmm scooby snacks for votes huh? lol I'll provide entertainment for votes.... A few laps from my RC10DS Nitro sporting the old HPI Camaro body. The car is faster than what you see, i just didnt have enough space to let her go all out. DONT FORGET TO VOTE AFTER YOU WATCH!!! YOUR VOTE MAKES A DIFFER...

Awesome build...how long did it take? :wink: Im not a buggy guy but this is killer. I love the slight transparency of the chassis and especially love the side braces! I would take that beautiful chassis with the braces and....well you know where im going with this, right? I would build a DS... It t...
