Electronics are installed and it's now a runner. I'll be using B4 bearing front wheels and modern hex rears. Next, the body. Back about 15 years ago or so when we started trying to piece together T2 buggies here on 10talk, finding a currently available body that fit the t2 chassis was all trial and ...

bA82-PhCNxM Cool interview. I know the industry has moved on, and tracks as in the video are harder to maintain, but THAT is what I call off road. The tracks today are on road tracks with INSANE jumps. I know the speeds today would never be possible on tracks like that, but that’s my opinion. Sorry...

I finally watched the full Jay Halsey video on the previous page. I saw a pic of my replica at the 9:30 time stamp. :) This one? Yeah. That pic is from right before I sent it to him to sign the body so it still had the black wheels. I found the chrome outer halves after it came back. Almost 15 year...

Based on this thread I bought one and must say I really dig it. My B7 looks really unique and different with this body. At first glance it doesn't really look like a B7 at all. Up close all the Associated blue hardware gives it away, but from the drivers stand I could tell people anything and they'd...

Back in the mid to late 1980's, our local off-road track separated 2wd buggies into three classes; 540 (open to anything that wasn't an RC10, 27 turn, 6 cells), RC10 stock (27t, 6 cells), and RC10 modified (any motor, 7 cells). I wanted something to race in 540 so I bought an Ultima when they were f...

I'm gonna break the rules and post a picture that I've never actually taken. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. :oops: This image is from Google maps. This "T" shaped bridge is the exact spot where the Enola Gay dropped "Little Boy" on August 6th, 1945. hiroshima.jpg That domed struc...

I was just joking about JJ and his Ultima leading the RC10s again. Tokyoprof recently posted about the dominance of the Ultima at the 1987 Worlds (https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=49944) so this pic from VONATS felt like an opportunity to bring it up again. I'm curious about something from t...

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...

Here are a couple.

Solo and beside and RC10 for comparison

Where is the dislike button assembly is the best part. Feel free to send me any kits and I'll whip them out for free haha. I used to get $40 at the hobby shop to build a kit and was making money hand over fist. I would have done it for free

I finally had some motivation so I installed the driveshaft. I was paranoid that it was too long but it's actually pretty good. I also filled the diff with some Torco non friction modified racing oil, so all that's left to do is bleed the rear brakes and it's drivable again, however, I'll install al...

And you save $198!!!!


Off a price we made up on the fly and was never an actual price at all. Should have made the original price $838, and they could state that it is now half off!!!

I'm in My entry is the Marui Racing Buggy, aka Hunter prototype (at very least, this is the inspiration, from a single picture) https://i.imgur.com/X7RrfXd.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/hXNwRk6.jpeg Again, this is relying a lot on 3D printed parts : At the very exception of the wheels (orginals from a Ma...

Gonna take you back to an very important car in my rc history. 1989. This was my ultima that was modified as much as my budget for a 16 year old could afford mowing lawns (which I still do to this day for a living). Our local track converted to dirt oval. It was a very loamy heavily watered soil so ...
