Ah, dang it! I got here late. That picture was screaming for some sort of a Schumacher reference.

I Google "Amain coupon" every time I order. They always have them. Or you can scroll to the bottom of their main page. These are current:

That is amazing! I would need some sort of flip down binoculars to see my car on the backside of the track. Or maybe an FPV setup.

This desk was left behind by the previous homeowner, probably because it weighs a ton. It works well enough. The best feature is a slide out tray above the drawers. It is the perfect place to put a manual, tools, a cheeseburger, a beer, whatever while I have my work spread out in front of me. It has...

So we might yet see this:

I defer to the group on the brushed motors and the aesthetics for a display piece. If you just want a worry free runner, though, the 13.5 (or even 17.5) HW Justock combo is way more powerful than necessary for $110-ish and you never have to touch it. No commutator cleaning/cutting, no brush replacem...

Finally, the body wears a pair of yellow "In Memory" panda decals, in memory of my good friend and vintage RC stalwart Willy Chang. Willy was supposed to be at Bash V2 last year, but was too sick in hospital, subsequently passing away at the end of last year. Sadly missed by all who knew ...

I've seen jewelry cabinets with less bling

Will you ever run it or is it strictly for show?

Edit: Forgot yo say Excellent choice on the motor! It is a perfect match.

For a second, I thought the gold alloy shocks you described were THE Kyosho Gold shocks.

Your first is better than my 50th.

This is the most anticipated run of vintage ads for me. :D I like the Schumacher ads more, but I overdosed on those long ago. I probably could have knocked out a year of college with the time I spent staring at those 2 page Tower Hobbies ads featuring the Turbo Ultima. :lol: If you run out of buggy ...

I don't see this turning out well since They took your thumbs.

In my opinion this adjuster is senseless bullcrap. But it looks like a million dollar through the YZ-10 body - just my 2 cents :lol: Thank you for the explanation and I agree, it does look awesome! I have a touring car with a provision for tuning chassis flex. The screw holes for the upper deck are...

it’s hard for me to understand why rear motor layouts aren’t as fast. With modern RC tracks and tires, there is no to need hang massive weights over the rear tires to get forward traction, so the designers have gravitated towards centering the mass between the wheels for better turning and quicker ...
