From the mid 80's, help identify these rc vehicles:

Well duh!

Honestly, I don't think I can identify a single one! I'm such a retro-noob.

I just coined a new term.

Obviously no expert here. I've never owned a Kyosho(nothing personal).

2-Ultima
3-Raider

#7 is actually a Shadow. It was my first 4WD buggy back in the olden days.

[ROH73]

#1 is a Double Dare. #9 might be a Turbo Burns.

All the pics of Burns & Turbo Burns I can find have had a wing on the back. Was there another variation on the Burns that didn't have a wing?

[Shadow]

Burns DX?

[tim.sanderson]

Burns DX?

That's it!

My original plan was to make a blank post and then go back and edit it once someone gave all the right answers. However, I got distracted by a shiny object...

1- Double Dare
2- Ultima
3- Raider
4- Optima Mid
5- Ford RS-200
6- Nitro Brute
7- Shadow
8- Stinger MK II
9- Burns

I did that without looking at any of the other posts. But then again I'm a fan of Kyosho. If this was done with Yokomo's or Schumacher's for example I'd have little idea. Thats just for the fact that anything having to do with those brands was pretty scarce around here.
