Well got it out for a test run. It is a beast and a half. The only thing I don't like is the fact that I am use to sensored setups in all my other trucks so its a bit "loose" feeling off the line. So I went ahead and ordered a brand new Castle xlx2 & 800kv sensored setup and some Q8s c...

Ok it looks as though I measured a couple chains a while back and then pointed to this SDP-si page to source the chain in bulk one meter of chain for $20, but iirc there is a minimum price and shipping may be high as well. Its a good place for bulk... 3.75mm and .8 diameter wire https://shop.sdp-si....

First print came out great! I had some troubles with the first layer, as i didnt remember to raise up the nozzle temp when i changed the filament from clear to red, but i managed to save it during the print. The quality is draft, which is okay for this kind of proto: https://hitecmods.kuvat.fi/kuvat...

Thanks guys I though I toasted the trans today... my son was driving it in the snow and it was slipping a lot.... long story short I never glued the tires and they were slipping on the tires!!! Thank goodness! I took the whole transmission off the car and was getting ready to take it apart when I th...

not my pic but wish i had a "red prince"

Great thread, I've added a number of vintage 80's runners over the years but there's no letting my original PB Mini Mustang behind..

I hope everyone is coping with the pandemic as best you can. I just picked this lot up, it cost me a good US$300, but I think it's worth it. Sold the Dynatech to a mate, so that took the cost down. Looks like a Proline or JG truck conversion and a Sassy chassis-might put some tires on it and run it ...

I have been making good progress cleaning and restoring this beast over the past week. Sold the pulling gearbox to fund new parts. When disassembling the front end, I was excited to see some CRP arms but got shot down in flames to see 1 stock arm..another “what the..” moment. https://i.postimg.cc/cJ...

Seeing one of my pan cars lay waste to a 1000cc Ninja for a couple hundred feet ended the "toy" talk with most of my family and friends.

Just received this, pretty happy as it was a great price.

I'm still collecting stuff but this is what I come up with to attach the reflective tape to. I took a smaller spur gear that I had laying around and opened it up just enough for a pinion to fit snugly. I haven't glued it together yet, but I spun it up on a 15T modified. It spun true, without any vib...

I made this bracket with some scrap metal. 1" aluminum flat bar bolted to a piece of 1.25" steel bar. I tried it out but it really needs something more substantial. It will stay upright while running but vibrates around. It will also torque over on a full power start. I think a small selec...
