Tamiya TT-02 Alfa Romeo Martini

I still have nightmares from cutting all those decals.

Went simple on the paint, actually all done with rattle cans and masking tape, like I would have done back in the day. My first time giving it a shake down on carpet after the build https://youtu.be/yvimCUvuU9s That's an excellent paint job! Appropriate for both 40 years ago and today! This is anot...

The year was 1987. I got my second ever hobby grade r/c, the Tamiya Thunder Shot for Christmas. This is of course a re-release, but the CD is original, received the same Christmas. Jammed it with my cousins while we built the T Shot. Raced it hard and lost a lot before getting my TQ10, which I also ...

I started with an ORIGINAL AE Graphite chassis, and built up from there to have a 'modernized' durable racer. 13mm Kashima Fox shocks, 3.5mm ball cups & Titanium turnbuckles, B6 rear wing mount, JC Racing Retro case with a B6 gear diff, Factory Works steering kit, Dragon Punch RC shorty Lipo mou...

Picked up this as a partial slider and pieced it back together, mostly when parts that I already had. A stamp, modified for inline battery, DS servo saver, Factory Works towers and transmission brace, and Tamiya turnbuckles (weird, right?). Body is a JConcepts Protector with reproduction Cox Bandido...

Ok added some foams to rear tires, new wheel screws and adjusted steering linkage. Now I need to get the body painted.

V 1 is not quite perfect but V2 is printing and I think I've just perfected V3 Do these use common components with Hotshot diffs , I've got those parts I could drop in for testing ?

In 1994 Yokomo produced for the American market the YZ-10 Super Dog Fighter, their third version of the YZ-10 4wd electric off-road buggy. Previous to this the Super Dog Fighter moniker had only been applied to Yokomo's Japanese market YZ-870c upon which the YZ-10 was based. The American Super Dog F...

My sons T2.4

New built T2, slightly modernized for vintage racing. My son started vintage racing with a truck I built and sold BITD and he wanted to run more than one class so we built this. It's scary fast for what it is

Place holder

Ofna Ultra MBX.

My late Edinger recreational runner - wonderful drive!
