Its really nice Treystoys.

I certainly would just keep it before losing money. I am going to update my build thread with finished pics as soon as I get the decals on the body and finish the wheels. Good idea about a vintage speed controller. I know those things were junk, but they are a must for a Tommy on the shelf ;) Mine w...

Beautiful car

thanks
that was a fun read
i used to keep a battery diary with a record of charge rates and peaks voltages etc..
think it was one of the more interesting parts of racing
boats were definitely a battery killer

I just saw a brochure on EBay. They offered a 4wd, 2wd rear, and a 2wd front configuration on the Coyote chassis.

Bit late to this thread... Thanks everyone for the info here, really interesting. So what do you do with your Tomahawk? Keep it! Sadly the high end buyers are growing fewer and fewer now with reproduction lexan bodysets available and the rere Scorpion so those who want to experience these old gems c...

the normal kyosho spec MSC for the day had reverse, neutral, forward slow, med, fast. the unit has 2 resistors. The Tomahawk actually got the upgraded MSC, the PCB is the same but the wiring is different and the unit has 3 resistors. you had Brake, Neutral, Forward 1, 2 , 3 and 4, giving you finer ...

The last couple pictures you posted makes the car feel like a box art car to me, but if you already have one of those, maybe give the Curtis Husting RC10 manual replica a go. Either way, everything cleaned up well and looks great so far, looking forward to more progress! PS> What specific process di...

This missing Masami cars in my meathooks! http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii76/slotcarrod/DSCN0491_zpsc6b1tluw.jpg~original And some more pictures from that wonderful temple of vintage RC! Thank you Midge and Curtis for allowing us to see! (Steve if you find any of the pictures I am sharing to be...

Resurrecting a post from the dead! Del Mar came after The Ranch...Colton Ranch Skateboard Park. Allen skated and Gil bought an RC car. They actually had a track that they built next to the park (both are LONG gone now). As I recall, people were complaining about the noise and the Losi's were kind of...

Borrowed from elsewhere

Let me introduce you my rere top cat schumacher i mod in a rere top cat mid. I made a lot of part to improve the front end steering and suspension. All parts are hand made, no 3D printer. As i run on an astro track, and as i bend the chassis on the rear, i decide to mod the top cat into a mid one. R...

Thanks to GoMachV, I was able to get started on a RC10L project I picked up on Ebay. I'm using the Factory Works lipo chassis, but had it cut in the natural fiberglass for that old school feel. Still waiting on the body and some odds and ends to button up. Thanks for looking!

Finally built. Things to note, the parts fit is excellent. The only thing that wasn't quite right on mine is the front right stub axle side play. There was a little more movement than the left side. Easily remedied with some Tamiya shims. The front sprocket isn't ferrous. It has quite a heft to it. ...

Looks really nice! Thank you. Why isn't the body painted yet ??? It took me long enough to build. I'm getting older. :lol: The car looks great Chris! By chance, are you able to determine if the front and rear sprockets have the same tooth count? Someone mentioned the car having one-way bearings in ...
