Should be great for the Vintage Bash in November.... even if I can't drive!
What is this blasphemy!????
I thought you were running a Schumacher?
Hey @1300GT, I was planning on running a Schuey, building up a Shotgun or Storm.... but this is already built . Means I can drop gear in it, and get driving.... and that's what I probably need more of right now!
Are you running?

Fair enough. You'll be up against RJ then?
No. Not this year. I plan on being there in 2025. My cars will be ready even if I'm not.

Well, RJ will be in the class.... but fair to say I won't be actively racing anyone.... more providing a mobile speed hump for a lap, before going back and repairing something I broke. Besides, @RC10th will be in red mist land, cutting corners and clearing doubles....

2025? Wow, that's some forward planning! Would be good to cut some (chaotic) laps, while talking complete crap

I'm not sure my driving will be any better, I haven't really driven an RC car in about 6 years and my radio is from 1986, so it's anybody's guess as to what happens. At least I'll have a half decent Traxxas. crikey, what has the world come to....

Got a lucky bargain eBay find, finally arrived today and looks like it's in great shape. Chassis has some scratches but not bad. Apparently stopped playing with it because they upgraded the bellcranks and didn't have linkage to fit

It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas Factory Works website

You should probably refer to the manual for proper wing installation.
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

I've been digging, doing some research, tapping into the past. On my journey I've Found some very interesting early posts by a lot of currant members here in the archives. Very interesting stuff! I encourage newer members to do the same, as the old...

Nope. I'm not clicking on any links in this thread because I know one of them is going to be Farmer's pic. :P
None of them were about that picture.
But now one of them refers to it.
But seeing how often it is mentioned in this thread, it sure...
This seems to be a hugely popular thread on another forum out there, so let's see how it do here?!?
Simple, what did you do RC wise today? Pics or it didn't happen! Painted a body, rewired a ESC, mounted some wheels, finished a 3-year project...

The Genova's body is out for paint but I wanted to test drive the car at the track, so I found a beat up JRX2 body in my scrap pile and proceeded to make this abomination:

I built this today, its just a start, it was hard to get a picture of the whole track, unless I stood really far away... anyways more to come soon. its gonna be a lot of fun and was not too hard to do for just a few hours work! i made the rails out...

Big jumps and take some pictures of cars in action :D Looks amazing, I'd love a garden!
Thanks to Hoopty for the design, and Mrlexan for the production. They look great. And Thanks again Jay for the body and wing to put them on, can't wait to get 'em dirty. :D

The seller even included a free gift of 4 bearings. Wow, can't wait for my tires to show up too (same as what's in the pic here).
Got a bunch of stuff now, including the RC Channel rear metal kit, SRB alloy chassis and nose. Just need the RC4wd...
Last post
since there is no rc4wd local distributor here in our place, they didnt ship here without approval, wasted a lot of good stuff from them (we need to order in a long process)
There's a local track I've been wanting to check out, Sparks Park. I think it's the only one on my side of town. We watched a little practice yesterday and made a point of stopping today to see some racing. This was the first race for both me and my...

In my experience, 25 heats is about average. I just moved from southern CA to the Kansas city area and noted that the tracks in CA seem to be more super cross like than here in KS. Before I got my RC10 Classic, I raced modern 2wd buggies along side...
