are You going to build it, Daniel?
Hi Dennis,

Yes, I'm going to build it :) it's a very cool and pretty rare buggy. It has a twin belt drive gear box, which makes it kinda special :)

It was a good car but had no success because the rc10's and losi's dominated the 2wd class at that time.

Cheers,
Daniel

Nice find! I would treasure something like that, John was quite the innovator.

Wow, nice find!
Do you know someone who might have left a Thorp chassis?
Trying to build such car but without chassis it´s not possible.

That is a nice looking hull! Are you going to run nitro or go electric with your set-up?

I can say what I didnt get in the post yesterday... :(

USPS says my box of goodies was dropped at 10:59 am, but we watched the post man drive to the mail box, drop letters and leave. He didnt drop off my 12 pound box o' fun :(

Cant contact them until tomorrow to see what's going on.

Sounds familiar. I was expecting bearings for my RC10 Worlds steering rack and a servo yesterday and nothing. I hope they show up tomorrow. :?

I don't considered these "hobby grade RC" but this was the first RC vehicle that was my own and not a hand me down. Slight sun damage to the box and a little on the rider but in perfect unused condition overall. Got it for a steal if you consider a guy has one listed on eBay for $365 right now :roll:, but I got it for a very fair price so I couldn't pass it up.
