Cool stuff... a night race would be awesome... or just shut the lights off on an indoor track.

Mmm... yeah, gotta agree with MarkyDents....

Wow... crickets for such a cool project... What all parts have you collected so far? Are you wanting to build the four-wheel drive system from scratch? 48 pitch, BTW. ...I'd use the top shaft/diff/case from a stealth as a starting point for the front (Stealth rear too, obviously), or nab an RC104WD ...

Don't worry... no one here understands Associated's new manuals either.

Welcome to the show!

Ooo... interesting build proposition. JoesphS had some pretty good thoughts. There's a few 40th kits on eBay in the UK for £450-£525 add a Stealth trans from £80-£170 with a Factory Works (username GoMachV here) Stealth drilling template www.ebay.com/itm/303982690875 ...or you can print one from her...

MIP-cable-4wd.JPG Never said it was a standard RC10 trans, just making assumptions on the gearing for mathematics' sake since eddy hasn't said what the main trans gearing is, if he knows, if he has gears for either, e...

In 1979 Tamiya bestowed upon the RC world the Rough Rider, the company’s first 1/10 2wd electric off-road buggy. A scale version of Funco's Single Seat Baja racing buggy the Rough Rider was imported into the US by Model Rectifier Corporation along with the concurrently released VW Beetle variant tha...

That's impressive fading for a rattle can. Outstanding paint job.

Thank you for the kind words! Man, a Baja bug in the mid-80's, talk about a rad first car.

...Super Champ... hmm... stay tuned.

In 1981 Tamiya launched into a new segment of off-road vehicles with their 1/10 4wd electric Toyota Hilux. Constructed almost entirely out of metal Tamiya’s new pickup doubled down on the scale realism that made the SRB line so popular. The Hilux featured a pair of rectangular tube drop rails connec...

In 1982 Tamiya released the Super Champ as an improved version of their 1/10 2wd electric buggy. The final model to be underpinned by the SRB platform the 'Champ catered to the growing contingent of 1/10 electric off-road racers. While still sporting a fiberglass chassis and all metal construction f...

Always welcome! Nice buggy's too, dig the idea of leaving one in as ran condition... every spec of dirt is a memory.... until one day you look at it and say, "I don't remember it being that dirty"
