Hello all, I'd like to present my new Spaceframe Chassis for the Hotshot series. It's a very old project, started in 2019, but actually I always had this in mind since the Hotshot was released in 1985... I love the Hotshot but its bathtub chassis was a bit dull compared to the futuristic and sexy Fr...

This is the last version

Slicks. Jconcepts Smoothie 2's (silver), Proline Bald Eagle (MC), or whatever you have in a clay or soft compound you can grind down.

I will come back and update this thread in a few weeks. But for now, I just want to show it off for guys that donated parts to the project. This is where your stuff went. If you know the back story, please keep it to yourself for now. I'll explain later. Thanks to Frankentruck, dldiaz, duckhead, and...

Cool Sunrise this morning.

More to come but this year's Kinwald Classic 5-link build is moving right along

Almost a 2 year update.

Trying to get this one done for this year's Vonats. Still waiting on some parts, so cutting it close. But Darkside Designs got the body painted for me, and I got it trimmed and stickered when it got back yesterday. That's it for now.

I've got a couple of Comical RC10 buggies to build. I'm starting out with the shorty Masami style build, the Ultra Short Wheel Base race replica.

That being said, I think I'm going to just clean this one up as best I can and maybe redo the body but keep the same...

No gratuitous "centerfold" spread ( ), but a box ( ) of TRX stuff w/rando electronics that I shipped to myself. Oh, it's on now! As soon as I get around to it..

There's the "Things that irriate you" thread. The "Vintage... I'm getting tired of it!" thread. So, welcome to what should be the quite comical.... Today, a stupid person... Started a new project. On a Sunday. With no clue what they're doing. Three hours into a one-hour job it'll...

I need to get some slightly longer turnbuckles for the front for more thread length into the ball cups, but for now it's good enough to go forward. Rear CVDs built and installed. .
