wooosh that was slow And You have not seen the outdoor racing Turbo Ultima Mid Carbon Special Yet. he he

Not yet! You mean the Turbo Ultima Mid Carbon Custom Special SE Limited Edition. Still waiting for you to drop teh bomb

It might get closer to......PICTURE time again

I´m not fond of this forward cab body on the RB6 and I wonder how hard it was to rub the Losi logo of the chassis The Twenty Two is a cool buggy and Kyosho is sadly left behind.

Sorry for being a nag, just had to vent it.

I think You are spot on DennisM. Big corp. that does not know the sun is not shining on them anymore> To much BS and things goes south. I just got picture of my Outdoor bad boy.

The Bad Boy.
Put in the RedBox 20+years ago.....saw daylight two weeks ago. The only thing i did was blow off the worst dust and today made a photo. This Car is so easy to drive. My Favorite

That's the car I've had in my head for a couple years.
But then I wanted to use a triumph front: to keep keep the inner hinges on the front and rear on an equal distance. Good idea I think, but it also made me have a closer look at the triumph's belt transmission and I decided I'd not build that mid-motered ultima before figuring out a good slipper for it.
By the time 2 people had come up with b4 slipper shafts for the mid, my rear-motered ultima was running so well I could not bring myself to spend the money on those shafts
Here's one I saw on yahoo auctions Japan about 5 years ago: Maybe I should just go for it.

Cool I think You should do that......keep the weight inside the axles and get a neutral car with no surprises......just a smooth ride

This is very funny I was looking on the RedBox™ last week.........hmmm...i might need to make them International Modern With 110/220 volt and new front for charger and all other crap i might need.
NO But hell no Vintage boxes go to Museum on the third floor. I ordered Two NEW RedBoxII™ JummyJummyElectronic™ With Custom Paint I might have them on the Vintage Nat. (i am going to Sweden on Sunday)
