I think my old "Voodoo Cadillac" AX10 fits nicely here:

I don't have the chassis anymore, but I still have the body. And it will rise again, in some form or other...

Been waiting to show a pic of this thing-- Purchased as is from the bay minus wheels--
Appears to be a handmade rear tower with the original one layed down to connect to HPI rally upper chassis plate. Plate is held up by 2 different style braces then connected in front with a small carbon section that is then connected to a small piece of aluminum from somewhere on the old chassis. The piece has a small 90 degree kick so screws covered in plastic pcs can connect it to the front plate.Might be a hottrick chassis,dont think it is for an rc10? with fiberglass "guards". Was told this was a race car from the 90's ? Crazy thing is it had a nice woven graphite upper deck on it when I recieved it,that only after setting it right next to my hpi rally did I notice that was where the top plate originated from.

I found this very cool RC10T2 frankenstein conversion on the RC10 B1.5 thread. In case you haven't seen it, here's the link and photo.

Hey Gomachv, did you ever try a rocket run? Very cool, I've never seen one of these before.

No, and it doesn't look like they did either...luckily!
I do still have the rocket pod setup, it will bolt to about anything :mrgreen: I should have sent it to Farmer along with the body but wasn't thinking. I bet he would have run it 8)

Bolinkfan, I see you got that car. I watched that on ebay and thought it was a very interesting contraption.

I wish I had taken pics of my blue eagle that I did a gas conversion on using a duratrax clutch. I'm pretty convinced that traxxas found out and created the nitro hawk. I had a gas traxxas truck before it was cool :mrgreen:
