I'm certain I had a Lumina on mine. Bolink probably. One of the few bodies I ever owned that I can't remember the paint scheme on. Fluorescent pink and blue with white trim I think.

There was a bit of printing activity this week... I remained silent because of no time to actually post about this... I had actually to try to print rims. I chose the Samurai rim, as I love it :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ieybnksx30 8ieybnksx30 And here is the results https://i.imgur.com/uhc...

Ball diff lube options/alternatives??? I'm working on rebuilding a ball diffs today, or was planning on anyways, and just realized my tube of Associated ball diff lube is empty. And I have no options to get "rc specific" branded ball diff lube today. From some online investigating this mo...

Over the past week or two, I've been painting some more bodies for cars I'm putting up for sale. I'm not the world's most creative person, so colour schemes are always a stretch. Firstly, this is a HB Cyclone, with a Protoform Mazdaspeed 6 body. Probably a bit too much of the darker blue on the rear...

I switched to a Novak Havoc ESC because it has Lipo support built in, but it doesn't like the Tamiya brushless motor and throws a fault code for motor not having temperature monitoring. So in goes a Novak 13.5 with it. Rear suspension is now significantly beefed up with some goodies from Factory Wor...

This has been a problem for a while with other screw sets, KNK are the ones we typically recommend. Don't mess with the chassis. The reason for the 100⁰ screws is due to the thickness of the chassis. If you countersunk them to match the wrong screws the taper will protrude the thickness of the chass...

They are available in several colors as well as aftermarket options. ECX springs are also a little bit larger than AE springs, but smal...

Got it down to the front end, which is a nib piece from A.R.T. for the Agitator, hopefully it is what its supposed to be, set me back $65, its coming tommorrow i think...I did narrow the rear end with original RC10 DS arms...it now sits perfectly under the 92' Lumina body...(got a special paint sche...

Traxxas Slash I used to race dirt oval with. I remember when I painted it, waiting about 40 days to get the decals from China. I still have it, but it is not nearly as pretty after me bangin' it around the track. I can't remember why it has an SCR pack in it for these pics...

This was my first RC car kit that introduced me to this wonderful hobby.
