RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

here is my latest edm a 2.25 terminator. sorry no chassis shots. it is a standard rc-10 terminator conversion with 20 degree nose and dynotech arms and front tower. chassis has been cut down a little for weight and has delrin bulkheads, thorp 64 pitch gears,aluminum outdrives,aluminum cvd's, a&l belcranks and all other lightweight goodies. the last picture is of the polished concrete track inside the south birdsboro archery rod and gun club we race at. its the only on i could find.

Damn, Bill, these are awesome. You have to post these in the Vintage forum at DirtOval.com!

Sweet car. Is that real gold leaf or vinyl?

cool car.

and i see a few familiar faces in the crowd.

Get yer kit off sweet heart

thanks guys i knew you would love these. i made the body myself with my lexan brake and the hood and nose wing are mcallister. the orange,black,white,and chrome center panel are paint everything else is vinyl. my good friend who i raced karts with for years does lettering and striping he does all my vinyl work.
doug,
as soon as i get home from work i will try to get them on dirtoval.
tad,
that is just plain old vinyl.
scr8p,
sometime during the winter when we race you should make the treck down to birdsboro and check it out. its amazing to see how fast these things really go on a polished concrete floor. if you know dale and less hartzell they come down every week, i believe they are from coplay isnt that near you?

yup, i live about 5-10 min. from dale. and i've raced with both him and les for many years. that's brian strausser in that pic too, right? it looks like him anyway.

i'll get down there this winter. it'll be like racing on hardwood again with the skinny tires on all four corners.

hardwood, i take it youve been to strands in mcadoo before it was carpeted. yes thats brian he races there too. we start racing again friday nights in late oct,early nov., i will have to let you know for sure.

i've raced at a few hardwood places in the early 90's. macungie, alburtis, tamaqua (prop and wheels), and a skating rink in NJ. i can't remember the name of the town, but jim young (if you know him) ran it. i've never been to the one in mcadoo, though.

i know dale ran at mcadoo when it was wood he used to take our lapcounter there when they first opened. he would run thoes schumacher stagger ribs there and stomp everybody. he said they were unbelievable on wood.

these were the schumachers we used at alburtis and tamaqua. this is pretty much how my team car looked when i was running late model at alburtis in the 93/94 season.
