I was envisioning a 4wd RC10 with a vintage transmission somewhere near the middle of a vintage AE chassis so that you could somehow use the B44 front and rear gear boxes and shafts. I would like to see vintage suspensions, but could use modern shocks. I'm not sure how the steering would play out yet. I also envision lots of carbon fiber, including the chassis. And the bulkheads would be vintage but not limited to RC10s.
Maybe others here would have a better insight on how to accomplish such a 4wd buggy.
This could be a collaborative thread for a future older but newer RC10 but in 4wd.
If you put a modern 2wd buggy from 2022 against a 30-year-old 4wd buggy from 1992 on a medium to high bite clay track who would win this shootout? This is assuming using the same tires and electronics.
Would 30 years of advancements in 2wd...

I hope the track increased the value of the house. I'd consider that a key feature. 😁. That's a cool layout.
I saw this old Kyosho 4WD buggy with chaindrive but have no clue what this is. Someone knows this car and how old this could be?
I know the Optima and Turbo Optima as I have run them in the past but don´t know other Koysho cars very well.

Seeing as others have added opinions I'll chip in. I respect 4WD race cars a lot. They will always be the fastest machines out there.
But having been there and done that in 1/10 and 1/8, I do not wish to own a 4WD car right now. They have a few...

The one arm is stripped and cracked where the shock screws into it so the shock wont really screw into the arm anymore. I have a zip tie on there now just to hold it but I have not used the truck since it broke. More less just to keep the truck...
In admiration of 1300GT's 4wd SRB, I'm starting on my own attempt at building a similar car. I figured out a B4 slipper gearbox setup in this thread -
Now I'm mocking things up for the chassis. 2 3D printed replica MIP gearboxes, 3D Printed front...

Its virtually impossible to eliminate bump steer on a trailing arm 4wd car as the steering wants to be in front of the gearbox , whole thing is looking really good .

Cool! The Mx-4 's with the mid-motor cofiguration are the first I see.
Which shock towers came with that YMP kit? I see yours both have the molded rear tower, but one has a molded front tower and the other not. And which were the standard shocks:...
Anyone know anything about this? Interwebs search does not produce all that much. Edit: I am realizing this is the same / similar to a Robbe Panterra. And the fact that Panterra is mentioned, makes it more awesome!
I am picking up this little beaut...

any chance you happen to know where to find parts for these?
Ralph @ wms rc shop seems to have the front knuckle(s) you need:
He is in Germany, so shipping will be a little $$$ and long, but he is a nice guy to deal with and prices are good.
