Carpet Oval LX-T

Here's my LX-T that I raced on carpet ovals as a kid. It's close to how it was back then, except for the .36" shocks and yellow motor plate. I ran A&L Roadkill & BTS Liberator, Dahm's Ruff- E-Nuff SE and Andy's Lo Profile bodies. I had Trinity Pushed 1400's but the Point Blank labels fi...

Losi XX4 Y2K

I built this XX4 for a friend. I wasn't too concerned about having era correct equipment, but I loosely based it on something you may see in the early 2000's. I mostly just built it to what I thought looked nice. The Hara motor is one of my favorites, and just looked too cool not to use. I made some...

Brian Kinwald 1997 IFMAR 2wd World's Winning XX-CR Replica

First and foremost, a HUGE shoutout and appreciation to Larry Doe for helping me make this dream a reality. Larry was kind enough to bring my car down with him for the IFMAR worlds this past week at Hobby Action Raceway in Chandler, AZ for me to display in BK's memorial pit spot. I'll have this on d...

Re: Masami Hirosaka´s 2023 radio

The wing on that RC10 is mounted really far forward? I wonder how that affects handling? Kinda stating the obvious but moving the wing forward moves the location of the force applied by the wing forward so... the buggy is likely to have comparably more front traction, less nose lift during on throt...

Re: ** 2024 Tamiya Vintage World Classic - Thunder Alley R/C, Lucama NC - January 12-14 **

Well, recovery from my injuries seems to be taking forever... but I am at least able to walk short distances with a crutch, I still can't use my left arm much but rehab for that should finally start next week. So I am optimistic I will be functional by January - I'll just have to bribe my wife to co...

GoMachV's RC24e project

Been at this one for a while now and finally about to wrap it up. All parts are scaled 1/2 from the 12e making it a 1/24 car. Fits slot bodies but I'm struggling to find a nice early 80s stock car for it. I made a few concessions along the way but very minimal. For example the kingpins are press fit...

Re: ** 2024 Tamiya Vintage World Classic - Thunder Alley R/C, Lucama NC - January 12-14 **

Just got home from the race weekend. More entries than last year which is always good to see. :) I ran 17.5 2wd and 17.5 stadium truck. Qualified 6th in the A in S.T with my T2m. The truck felt sluggish to me all weekend. Tried a different motor too, but it was about the same. Finished 5th... not ba...

Robobugs has a good article on this car. They show the tires to be foam. Hope this helps.
