So last week, I made a deal with a fellow racer that was looking to move some re-release items. I didn't think it would be that much, but it turned out to be 1 complete car minus a body and wheels, and maybe 75-80% to build another.
I have an idea what is gonna happen with the complete one. But some key pieces will need to show up first for it to head in that direction. For now, I'll just get the thread started.
This one will take a little while since I'm lacking quite a lot of parts. Starting off with a bunch of parts I have left from all of these rere kits I've been throwing together.
So this one is going to be a modernized replica of Masami's car that...

It's interesting that the Masami 1993 car looks like a trimmed and tweaked production car and the earlier 1989 and 1991 are basically specialty prototypes.
The trick item for the 93 Worlds seems to have been the milled tub. Some guys had them,...
I watched this car on CL for a few months and was able to grab it a few weeks ago. The guy built it and drove it around his yard a few times. Tub is still perfect.
This will be my new dirt car. Tore it all down and started doing a few chassis...
This should be my last Worlds build. Should..... :lol:
So, this one is going to be a modern replica of the rc10 Mark Pavidis used to win the '95 Reedy International race. Since I am starting off with a new kit, I probably won't take all that long...

Very very nice work, i like the nose plate. Looks very smooth.
On this car we can see lots of knowledge and effort.
:D
I shuffled some parts around and now can move forward on another one of these. I couldn't do the chassis mods i typically like to do because they were already redone in blue. The only thing I did do was move the servo forward to get a little more...

Scr8p doesn't look anything like his avatar pic! :lol:
Just like fat girls on Instagram, its all about camera angles.
:lol: :lol: :lol:
And in case anyone wondered, that's not a mullet. I party in the front too. :wink:
Sooooooo, when you get 3 of the kits and none of them are being built stock, you tend to have a lot of parts left over. And of course, you just have to do something with them. :lol:
I finished 2nd yesterday in the classic class with my Tamiya Manta Ray. Had a great battle for the lead, but caught the pipe with like 40-45 sec left and couldn't catch back up. I'll update that build thread later.
I traded a fellow member my unbuilt classic kit for this. Not totally sure on a direction, up in the air if I want to leave the chassis parts black or send them out to ano a different color.
I was going to throw the trans together to see what all...

I know you're trying to replicate a specific paint scheme, but I like your design -- sans the black fade -- MUCH better. It just looks so clean. Love it! I wouldn't change a thing.
Ok, I believe I'm done buying Worlds rere's now. :lol:
I've had this build in mind ever since the rere's started. In my opinion, AE kinda dropped the ball never offering white wide track front arms. Between the Classic and worlds parts, it...
