Re: where did the Futaba Magnum Racer come from?

I had a radio at one time like that, but I thought it was a Magnum Sport. It was like a Magnum Jr. with no fancy adjustments, only trims. Interesting to know there was a "Racer" as well.

Re: To bearing or not to bearing?

Remember in the movie Fletch when he is "inspecting" the airplane and says "It's all ball bearings these days!". IMHO don't mess with bushings.

Re: Replacement Kyosho truck/pickup body

A clodbuster has a 10.63" wheelbase. The juggernaut has an 11" wheelbase. Maybe one of those bodies would come close.

Re: monster jam trucks..

As much as I might not like these trucks, my 6 year old thinks that they are cool. After all, these are the people Traxxas attracts to the hobby. Get them interested, learn a little, then get them an SC10!
