taking some test pics with new photo box

oh....its ready!

Tap pics for clarity....gonna get murdered in a build off if i can't pics to be clear without tapping on them....Miserable!

This car started out in the late 80s as a standard original JRX2.....me and my brother raced against it at our local tracks quite often back in the 80s....finally acquired it from the original owner. Going to do a full restoration back to original (close anyway) with 5 links etc. Resized_20201205_09...

I have 5 votes accounted for...my Kyosho is turn key...so I am assuming Jason was the 6th vote. YES!

just saw it myself after u dredged it up...
quite possibly the best build ever done...ever!

You could put that into production!

Got it done and tested...New body too! Went with a Twisters mod instead of the Checkpoint for brush wear reasons...plus Twisters are cool. Tis a ripper for sure! runs literally 20x faster than that nicad/tekin setup. tracks straight as an arrow and howls like a banshee...back to my favorite car agai...

Body still MIA!
it drove perfect! way better than todays stuff...but the batteries and esc are a joke compared to todays stuff. those batteries are brand new and it only went 1 lap and started to dump!

Did Thumbs teach you that? I heard he likes to hide.... and watch...

He claims he isnt scared of people seeing him run them including his wife but i am calling BS

Actually runs real good! anybody there see u run it? i still cant get over the fear of people seeing me run my rc's....not sure why i care but i do....i usually run and hide if i see someone coming but I usually pretend to be occupied by something else as to avoid any eye contact. You nailed there!...

looks great Chuck! on to the next build. Kyosho next time possibly?
