Your 3 hour estimate does not include the 11 day site-seeing trip across America USPS trucks often take. Cue the Benny Hill theme....

If AE starts releasing Championship replicas, we're going to be here a while.

Schumacher did it first, but...yeah

What's all this then?

The body and appearance take some getting used to (ugly) which is the reason for the beer. :lol: :lol: :lol: That looks to be a very nice example. Congratulations! I never had an Ultima, but I always liked them. It would be cool to have a JJ Ultima to sit next to my Masami XLS. :D I hoped the post ...

Another RT1408 and Speed Gem Pro Chrominum with a sweet solder job. If I'd ever had a Speed Gems Pro Chromium back in the day, then I'd have to wonder how you got that motor from my collection. I used to do a lot of sweet solder jobs like that. :lol: I've been on the hunt for a particular Schumache...

The obvious solution is to build another pink Top Cat.

I found black and white photos of 2nd and 3rd. I re-watched the race, but didn't see any peppermint buggies in the A-main or in the pit area.

Remember boys, get em while they're available. Sound advice. I remember mulling over whether I should buy the Masami kit new at $309. :shock: Oh jeez, should I? :?

I had a long weekend, so I was able to do lots of RC stuff. First up was the Benny Hill motor swapping extravaganza. My Cougar had a 7.5 LRP and my Top Cat had a Trinity Outlaw 10.5. Both were undriveable unless EPA was set low, very low. So I pulled the 7.5 for my new LD3, swapped the 10.5 into the...

I did something similar on my KF2 gear diff. I filled an old case with Flitz metal polish and ran the diff with a drill to let the gears polish themselves.

On the one I mentioned earlier, the "always on" +5 volt line is red. I connected it to gray. If I wanted a power switch, I would have put it across these 2. For mine, I just soldered them together. I have another power supply here, so I checked to see how it compares. On this one, the alwa...

^^^ definitely this

Assuming we have permission, the RC10 B2 logo design would lend itself nicely to the RC10 talk logo.
