I'm excited, but have a feeling that may go away quickly when I see the price. :D What are the thoughts on price? TTAE getting the 4WD out first really limits what conversion kits can charge, at least to the masses IMO. There will be a group, including myself, that would prefer a MIP (or FTW) conver...

Afternoon Everyone...Its been a while since i posted a thread. I recently had the pleasure of taking out my RCP Wreckluse for a run. I also attached a GoPro to record the fun from Willy's perspective and to share. https://live.staticflickr.com/7844/45951979365_9f427800b7_b.jpg Set to 1080 for best r...

Way back in the 80's I raced an Optima very similar to this one. As a teenager, I just couldn't get enough of this car and modifying it just for the sake of changing it. I eventually hacked up some fiberglass plate and took some rear trailing arms from MIP to convert my Optima. I eventually had to g...

Oops, okay got it! Still chasing in second then. I just found the end date on the top of the poll. Zed still leading the beat down over the other beaters! :D Can even get votes in a BOTM to save my life :lol: but apparently I'm pretty good at this "having a crap car" thing. I love the vib...

It's gonna happen....it's gonna be epic..but gonna start off slow!....C, D then maybe E!

Can anyone let me know what you think the current value range is for a kit like this? All the AE rereleases are mudding the waters. Somewhere between $1 and $1,000,000 dollars! Sorry Lavigna, rules are the rules. Best bet is to search the bay and everywhere else, make a judgement call, and just ask...

Is this your current work?

Kyosho Ultima ST Sports RTR. Features include an anemic 540 motor from an old mattress pump, mismatched and thoroughly roached tires, 3d printed shock spacers and a battery held in by a body pin and a prayer. The RT5 body was forced into service with creative body post reaming. This one is pretty ug...

Hi everyone ! This is one of my lovely runner, the CRC GEN X10 SE , it comes with a beautifull body that doesnt deserve what happens next ;) I ran around 2 or 3 times a year and this lovely chassis pay the cost of my nearly driving exhibit . 1st run 1 month ago (2 days, around 7 lipos, 25/30 minutes...

Here's my early Nitro Sport. I've always wanted to convert it into a Rustler. I used to hit the biggest dirt jumps I could find as fast as I could hit them, jumped off cliffs, attempted epic high speed drifts, and it even ended up in the San Francisco Bay at one point. Upgrades include a heavy duty ...

This Grasshopper II has not seen a single tuning part since it was first assembled. The mounts for the front bumper have broken off and the battery cover has been lost. Cable ties hold the Varta RSH 1200 battery in the chassis. Thanks to the worn and hardened first set of tires, I can drift wonderfu...

And possibly the best Hop Up selection outright. You could almost build any car just from Tamiya's optional parts alone.

This isn't really a POS for what it is but more for how it's setup makes it undrivable, or maybe the POS is the ham-fisted, throttle trigger happy driver that is expert at low and medium speed wipeouts. No high speed wipeouts because I never get there in my run area. This thing needs a lot more rear...

Not as POS-ish as some other members, but here's some more of my junk. $40 Ebay Grasshopper (GH 2 body). I bought some Blitzer Beetle wheels on clearance, a pinion, and a battery door. Everything else came from my junk stash. I have less than $60 in it. It has a Redcat 550 motor, Axial esc (with dra...
