I had also been trying to decide for a color for the body when I remembered something. In the middle of page 4 of this thread XLR8 posted an amazing rendering of a white TOMSE. So I stole his image and opened it in MS Paint. Thanks Doug!! Optima Mid.2.jpg From there I just started flooding the white...

Got some paint and decals on it.
Still needs all the edges sanded and a little more trimming.

Thanks James Great build! BITD we had one Kyosho guy at our track who ran an Ultima and Optima then Optima Mid, did pretty well. Was it the Optima Mid that came with the gold shocks and the Turbo had the platinum? From the little I know of Kyosho's it looks to me as though platinum shocks came on th...

1/10 pan car. unknown chassis.7.JPG I found an old thread (10 years old) on a car very much like one I recently got. https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=28626 Also found the same car on RCTECH, same person posting the same car.

I just got a new pair of front wheels and already had a pair of donuts. Glued and trued the tires. I chucked the tires/wheels in a drill press and a dremel with a sanding drum strapped to the table. Turned out OK and looks much better than the broken black wheels with cracked tires. Still need to tr...

Few more items knocked the list First I found the centerline before drilling any holes that would align the rear pod. T-plate.2.JPG T-plate, still needs "tweek screws" and maybe a little more trimming. For now, just because I have them, O-rings under the T-plate. T-plate.3.JPG T-plate.4.JP...

When I was just a pup I often visited the Chicago Temple. The view from the very top was amazing. On a good day a paper airplane would fly forever between buildings, going higher and farther and then out of sight. My Grandfather would frown on that behavior though. It was one of the tallest building...

Here ya go Chuck. This was yesterday. Cloudy today. Thanks so much The circled area is the Chicago Temple. When I went there it was the 3rd tallest building in Chicago! It had the tallest spire in the world! I could see all of Chicago. Thick glass front doors with polished brass handles, elevator o...
