Remove all metal or you will end up with rusty steel parts and rust stains on the nylon pants.

I think i'm done here never going to be an exact replica but you get the idea plus a nod to all those who qualify 11th

And big thanx to Andy Cooke for all his hard work in making it possible.

How did these compare to the tubs and graphite chassis on the racetrack? Really depended on the track...the buggy was designed off of the associated worlds version and was well suited for rough and loose tracks common at that time. I raced for RPM and was very successful with the car racing stock a...

Turning out to be a real slow cooked dish. Nice to not rush through the build and enjoy the adventure - after all there is no hurry with this one.

2 days of RC in a vintage event in France : Montluçonnaise 2023 https://i.imgur.com/f7ODn3l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bN5DWwO.jpg Lot of fun, some face on some pseudo (poke @ Trass), and a lot of runs on both a nice onroad track with nice curves and a very nice offroad track in a very vintage spirit,...

I also didn't understand your previous post. It seemed like a good way to mess up a diff tube by unnecessary removal and reinstallation of an already correctly installed gear.

Just had to take the gearbox apart and check. No, but seriously I thought this comment can't be true (turned out I should have listened the gut feeling), and wondered how I could answer in a polite way. After all you had put some work into showing me the "right" way. Alternatively that it ...

Thank you both for the input. I'll go for the Novak. Thing is I want the components to be fairly period correct. The only early generation Novak esc I have are the NESC 4 and NESC 1X. The wires are too short so have to resolder. I'll be using the 4 and as you see in the picture the wiring is identic...

No Brian, it's Bienvenu! Pardon my French...

So last weekend I went to the Jconcepts INS race at Adrenaline R/C Raceway in Winchester, VA. I raced this in the 17.5 Independent class. The car worked pretty well. I tried some different setups.... mainly tire and spring changes, but by the time the mains came around on Sunday I was back to where ...

Evening stroll with the ol' lady. Lucky for us Sister Christian by Night Ranger wasn't playing.

Built and finished a TT-01E for my daughter so she has a car for a next event beside her Lunchbox... https://i.imgur.com/FMlCbpn.jpg https://i.imgur.com/YbZNp3Z.jpg She likes pink and she wants it fluo :-) https://i.imgur.com/FgU2QJH.jpg And here is the final result next to my own CLK-GTR (based on ...

Picked this up as part of a bulk buy fairly recently - it was thrown in because it had jammed so was basically a freebie. All it had in it when i stripped it was a grub screw inside which had prevented it spinning. Label is pretty much perfect. It is a 13 turn Platinum II. What is pretty interesting...

As stated before, I'm not a KISS fan, but I'm not anti-KISS either. I like this song most of the time, which is why I stopped this video about 30 seconds in...
