Team Car Built for Racing --- non-WOIN

[factory team gair]

Here is my starting point, a gorgeous, run once and put away forever Team Car:











This last one shows the worst of the damage, a dinged up skid plate, bent nose brace, and a bent turnbuckle.

It even came with a contemporary Futaba TX/RX, Novak 610-HRV, Duratrax 18x1 Motor, and 1500mah NiCd. Those and the tires have been sold, which brought down my purchase price down to ridiculous $.

I was so happy and fast with my fuglyC10/JunkC10; I am looking forward to tuning and enhancing this beautiful buggy.

That said, WOIN seems tired to me, it seems like throwing as many new parts as possible at a car, and trying to emulate new cars but losing the essence of the old.

In this video at (1:30) my (other) car formerly known as a box of RC10T parts passes a Seanster-style RC10, and puts the hurt on B4.2/22/Schumi's:

My imagination is running wild with what the fresh Team Car will be able to do.

Nice team car, glad your gonna run it, and not let it sit on the shelf like a model. Make sure to boil the plastics in water to help them if they are brittle

Oh yah. His name's Todd, he's on these forum somewhere, don't know his user name here.
His car was pristine, powder coated full-on WOIN. I think that was his first race with it that way.


Here's a video using the Team Car to talk about the Classic:
