Nice bit of Checkpoint rarity here, in as-found condition. I believe these were HPI Uno (Masami) based builds with the slot modular endbell conversion, subsequently leading to the more common Platinum Series Checkpoints which also had the trademark slot brushes. Very pleased to be adding this to my ...

Ready for shelf

The runner - made for vintage racing. 20140610_115139.jpg Preliminary assembly to find the right shock set up. The relevant tracks require a ride height at +/- 20 mm. Ending up using 0.71 up front and 1.32 at the rear end. Dempertårn og bakvogn.jpg To add some rigidity between the longitudinal alumi...

Just drew up these lower front and rear arms for the SG Tag coyote . https://i.imgur.com/cCV45MEl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/aFOeLcLl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ynENc1ql.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qXW4rmnl.jpg The originals are all warped from spring tension and soft as noodles not to mention age rotted plas...

Motor....... something a bit different. On paper it's perfect (same as 21.5t) but the real world Tennis Court Grand Prix will tell.

I know I've been promising for ages but I finally started a Shapeways Shop today and Uploaded a few items , my shop is called " Dadio Designs "

This happened two weeks ago but I’ve been slacking. Looks like it was broke early on and they never found a replacement hub carrier. Custom works to the rescue. Just need a kingpin and she is golden. This was purchased from my old local hobby shop which makes it even cooler. 3D3C7E4E-679F-4CB2-A1C4-...

So a little progress..... the build has morphed into a MkI with the discovery of some early parts..... and it has certainly attained a rusted-out rat look too. I am still working on some of the 'aged' details, but have recently added some vintage decals which i have worked over in-situ and seem to w...

Being a 1986 build I decided to go all-out 80's floro.... and spent a good while hunting online for inspiration from body shells past. I gathered up a few screen grabs of various themes i liked the look of and sent them off along with my body shell to my trusted paint guy.... he has never let me dow...

1300GT has very kindly sent me some Tag Pro10 suspension components to copy and add to my Shapeways Shop (Dadio Designs), this is the first tester lower arm off the printer , very happy with the geometry :D I just need to give a little more clearance for the pivot balls as they are just a touch too ...

Just started the top arms .

When I first posted up pictures of my bog standard 834b, which i gained in a trade and by my own admission is absolutely lovely, a couple of people pointed out it wouldn't be long until i built another more modified version to race. Turns out I immediately got the itch, and they were absolutely righ...
