Excellent recovery. It looks a little Benetton-y.

Honestly, the main thing a Tamiya guy needs for his first Schumacher is a box of tissues :lol: I frequent the RCKicks FB group, which is predominantly populated by Tamiya guys, and there is always a LOT of complaining about how hard it is to build Schumacher kits. :lol: Once they get them together a...

Yes, it is a drop in replacement. My ProCat re-re was built using Jeff's (Factory Works) XLS chassis. I kept the ProCat body and under tray, but could have used an XLS body and undertray had I wanted.

The Reader's Digest version is that AE had all they could handle making RC10s, so they didn't have the capacity to also do a 4WD racer. Their team drivers had to run RC10s in 2WD obviously, but were free to run any 4WD. A lot of them chose Yokomo. Yokomo was in basically the same situation only reve...

Small balloons are perfect! They appear to have been designed for the purpose

Bezerk should learn from the makers of "80%" lowers. Machine the old AP brakes logo onto the chassis, and let the end user complete it if he wishes.

I am no paint man by any means, but I'd swear Suzuki sprayed clear over the decals on my GSXR fuel tank. There is no edge to them at all.
