This is when the comicals become super cool: race replicas!

Which one of you master builders is going to do a Masami XLS or Yoke?

Boss 302 Mustang would be a good match for an RC10 with black nylon bits. Or I just love Boss 302s and couldn't help myself.

My thought at the time was that in 85, AE truly had the best buggy. In 87 they didn't. Simple as that. By 89 they were running protoypes and aftermarket parts: very little connection between what was winning at the top level and what was in the box on the shelf at the LHS. So even though AE won all ...

I had to Google the Catahoula Leopard as I had not heard of that breed. What a handsome fellow!

Well actually, now I need some more 48p spur gears.

Much nicer than the piece of wood with nails in it that we used to use.

A bit of an eclectic haul today of good parts. I was actually upset when I saw these Proline wheels had sold on eBay. I was mad at myself for not grabbing them. I had completely forgotten I had ordered them. I was happily surprised when I opened the package tonight. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Yep, one...

Largest heap of rocking horse poo ever assembled. :lol: Having 1 is cool; 2 is awesome; I run out of words before you run out of C2 Works buggies. :D In the States it was all Losi vs AE at that time. I had a 10T and a XX. It was decades later when I first got my hands on a C2 Team. To me it was as g...

Worlds prototype replica* (*Minus all of the unique prototype parts) Saying the quiet part out loud :lol: I would like to see manufacturers include some of the racer hacks as optional. Static model car kits used to come with parts to build the car as it left the show room, but also custom wheels an...

Has the "Just Stop Oil" campaign come to Indiana?

My cat fell ill, recently, and I had to put him down just a couple weeks shy of his 15th birthday. During the week we were waiting for test results I stayed home and took a lot of pictures. I snapped this one of him starting his daytime snooze out back and have it as my lock screen on my phone. Lat...

AC Cobra style body for my MRC PRo racing !!!

Awesome! What are your plans for it- top up or top down with interior?

I got a ProCAT re-re and some goodies from Jeff. ProCAT chassis has individual cell slots. They look silly when using a 2S LiPo, so I will swap in the XLS chassis (after removing the ears for the battery straps).

It also doesn't seem to steer very well with the front wheels in the air. In other words it handles like a standard Top Cat. :lol: They won't turn at anything over about 3% throttle :lol: Sorry if you covered this already, but do you have to remove the upper chassis brace to install the battery?

not sure for interior, but bumpers and wing maybe

I was going to suggest you do a Honey West replica, but she had the earlier Cobra. The interior was nice though

Perfect battery choice! They tie the orange electronics to the black chassis nicely.
