I really dig these wheels, and would LOVE to own just one set for a RC10, but what always amazed me is that nobody would use those to actually race, were they supposed to be only for display or bashing back in the day :?:

I just use mine for bashing, you know driving through gravel, jumping into gravel, letting the kids run the car.

They are much more durable than similar plastic rims and they take hits from curbs far better imho.

even if you did not see it at first, somebody was sure nice enough to point it out to the seller:

Another helpful ebay do-gooder... :|

I just won a Jomac Lightning 2000 that was listed poorly, at least the helpful do-gooder involved there suggested it was an MRC... :lol:

Total auction description:
RC car same size as Jerobee Bolink OR Parma

raced this 20 some years ago with the jeobee crowd .. if you can tell me what brand it is with?? email me . frame is not cracked no holes ar striped.. the tires are not cracked or hard.. I am sure this could be restored was a great handling car any ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Dec-03-07 at 07:58:05 PST, seller added the following information:

Received word that it probly is a MRC
The funny thing is he sold a Jerobee in a previous auction but thought it was a Jomac...

:lol:

Sorry Bill... :oops:

Why on earth do these people not just keep quiet and bid on the auction themselves, then make a tidy profit selling the wheels themselves? :? Idiots.
