Sparked by a Discussion on AFX and Slot Cars, I brought this up in a different forum and it might be kind of cool to see what other hobbies/collections/toys you all might have played with in your youth (or if you never grow up- now)

I'm looking for a period-correct Kyosho motor to add to my Kyosho Triumph, and have been looking at the Le Mans and Mega motors.

Does anyone have details on the Le Mans motors that were available for off road in 1992 / 93? The 480s and 480t come to...

Beauty! I have one of those that I want to restore, I just can't seem to find a blue endbell that hasn't been messed up with a soldering iron... :x

Given that everything else is equal; What is more desirable a Gold Pan or Graphite Chassis?

Last post

Yes, you never know if you will like it or not until you yourself try it.
As far as coveted for me, I covered that early on... only aluminum tubs for me.

I know there are delays and backorders on pretty much everything these days but wondering if there is any news on something upcoming as far as Tamiya 80s reissues? Kinda bummed I missed the black Beetle reissue but Im not paying $500 for one either....

Last post

At first I thought you were wondering if there was anything out there like an 80's Horizon. I couldn't grasp why anyone would want an RC Plymouth Horizon!?!? :mrgreen:

This would fly off the shelves. At 4mph.

For my education:

What is so special about a TPS chain drive?

I'd imagine that it is somewhat rare to find these days and/or it was an effective little unit bitd. Or it might just hold a special value with certain folks for one reason or...
