Maybe there are not many modified Mabuchi motors out there. Beside the Black Mabuchi, which got a black can, front ball bearing and a more powerful wind. But actually just something of a machine modified. Maybe there have been no other Mabuchis which were "officially" modified by a motor ...

Only one of those is an RC10L SS...the other is a Bolink Road Pro.

Looks like the glue for foam tires.

My guess is DeltaPlastik.

Trinity Reflex Pro.

#1 Kyosho Circuit 20 (Rowdy Baja, etc.) front shock tower.
#2 Thought it was a Hot Trick Grasshopper front shock tower but it's not. Maybe it's for a Futaba FX10.
#3 Dunno...looks like a front upper brace for an 8th scale buggy.
#4 Tamiya Road Wizard rear pod brace and wing mounts.
#5 No idea.

A 44B that isn't as bad as it looks.

Don't recognize the black.

Danomite sent me a link here, he said this is the only other one he has seen http://www.rcchopshop.com/hottrick/woobergoober.html And I can tell you that through about 6-8 hours of e-research, that link was the only mention/visual of an EX-10 that I found while looking to purchase, just running eve...

Yeah, these motors were imported to, and sold in, the US by Polk Hobbies under their Aritso-Craft brand. You can find adverts for them in some 1988 issues of the RCCA scans that give an RPM rating, and what class of RC the motors were meant for. The 704B was for off-road buggies, and had an RPM rati...

Body is an MRP Van Am GT.

Team America/Thunderiders stunt cycle.

The engine in front allows more forward weight and simplifies the steering set up since you don't have to pass any bellcranks/links under the motor. A mid motor set up like the Bullet or Maxxum would need to raise the motor, and that raises the center of gravity. Or, an alternative to raising the mo...

My understanding is that the trailing arm set up on cars like the Ryuz buggy, and that Orb was to counteract the understeer characteristics of fwd set-ups with the oversteer characteristics of trailing arms. On modern high-bite carpet tracks trailing arms might not be as necessary. I've often read i...

Looks to be set up for a CC Lynx 2 rear end, but with a Asso. 10L front end.

TMS pan car wheel adapters.
