This is gonna be fun to watch! I just need to remember the TWO VOTES option.

Pink Plymouth and Suck My Wake (inspired paint)

Ouch

Just a heads up, I'm sure we all have older RPM and Lunsford ball cups rattling around somewhere. For 4.3mm ball studs there are the 3racing brand ones, some HPI ones, but with Lunsford shuttering ops....anyway I stumbled across some 4.3mm with M3 threads in Ti by "reveD". I think they are...

Good to know thanks!! The reveD were the only ones I found definitive dimensions clearly presented in a schematic type diagram...I got so excited...anyway

OK so I know I am overthinking this, but I am hung up on a definitive manufacturer of known 4.3mm ballstuds with M3 threads of various lengths with standard and low-pro balls. What I am running into is a lack of published dimensions regarding ball diameters. Schumacher? All Schumacher? I've seen the...

Could it be one color per (team) driver? In regards to the side dams flames I really think you are onto something here. Seems very plausible. You may have cracked the code! I never knew the team drivers had the same scheme with different colors. I just remember seeing Masami's cars all over the RC ...

I know we've been distracted with stuff lately....but The Dom for the win! Congratuations ThumbsonmyDiamondcox!

"....no plans to be a Losi collector........"

Diggin' the scheme on that JRX2!

Traxxas Blue Eagle of one sort or another would be my guess...

Alex

Yes, Traxxas. I believe those first Gen 272 "magnums" were run on the Blue Eagles, Hawk2, Rad2

I thought all the early Traxxas gearboxes had integral suspension arm mounts so the threw me off a bit. Thanks all. The original TRX-T Eagle, the Bullet, and Radicator shared the same trans. with integral arm mounts. The Hawk and the Sledgehammer had the same trans. with integral arm mounts. Then T...

I don't know why, but I am compelled to fill my shelfer's shocks with oil (cannot tolerate the cartoonish bouncing of undampened suspension {I guess I do know why}). On that note (and I know it's on your radar), if you do the same, do not use those kit red O-rings. Go with the blue silicone/X-rings ...

Serpent has M3 4.5mm pivot balls. But they are open top with 2mm hex....

Serpent has M3 4.5mm pivot balls. But they are open top with 2mm hex.... Screenshot_20230131_162110_Samsung Internet.jpg Nice! You think that the inner pivots are 4.5 rather than 5.8? Yokomo aint my "ball park" so I find it hard identifying the different sizes/models of hardware. Trying t...
