Build it for sure they’re bloody fun to drive congrats

I assumed Masami's CAT would be the holiest of holies within Schumacher. On the contrary, the current crew seems to know very little about it. I guess that is racing: if it isn't winning races now, it is just an old car. The video is still good to watch, as it gives a closeup view of the actual cham...

did some rework and sorting of my son pictures - I'll do jump later... https://i.imgur.com/tpyA4sU.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/Q0KsaFN.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/g1haIIY.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/7d9wSBo.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/ou7MzRY.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/6cLtkGC.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/QsrXB2m.jpe...

I recently found and dusted off my 35 year old RC10 Graphite and took it for a spin. Amazingly it ran and even the 30+ year old Ni-cad batteries still took a charge. Since then I've been scouring youtube and rc10talk for info so I can do a thorough refresh on the car. The car is currently in pieces ...

Bought a magazine, didn’t know it came with a free hex driver. Free tools are always a good day.

They will make plenty of money if they make replacement parts.

Last piece came today, I could still go further but I've had enough with tracking down parts overseas. Titanium hinge pins, nothing special but they are about half the weight of the stock steel pins. 20240618_203956.jpg SRT Race Roller for comparison 20240618_205618.jpg T3 Race Roller - only thing m...
