Didn't see a thread started on this yet. Thanks to Andrew Cooke of Grand Prix 3D for making this dream build possible.

Pic borrowed from his Facebook page.

I won't be using this as my personal build thread but will hopefully post a pic of my finished car once I source all the parts and its completed.

Got 2 of his first batch of kits.

So a few days ago I found out about a car I had never heard of before, an RC10B3x. FB_IMG_1671071977619.jpg The car was run at the at the postponed 2001 Ifmar Worlds in 2002, and seems to have been raced at other tracks in 2002. Here is what Kurt Wenger mentioned on FB about it's specs: It was a new...

According to the manual the shocks are oil filled

Also, if you look at the parts that Jegs carry you can see the different length arms for the truck and buggy, which would also mean the upper arms and drive shafts. The chassis is the same, so this will be a pretty long buggy. Basically like a Bandit

for future reference sake, and since Jegs is removing the pages with these documents, here are the exploded views:

If you do Facebook, the RCKicks group has several folks posting about these cars. The RCKicks YouTube channel has done a few videos as well.

Ran across this, maybe something to watch out for.

My friend has an RC channel in Japan and came out with this video of two Genova's on the track. He really loves the handling and performance.

I tried a set of those tires on some JConcepts Detonator wheels, but the sidewalls rubbed on the carriers. They may have cleared truck carriers but I never got around to trying.

Well I have so many ESCs so it´s hard to chose what´s my favorite.
One of my all time favorites is the Tekin Mospower Controller, which was Tekin´s first ESC.
For me that´s maybe the most beautiful ESC.

Another favorite ESC is the early Delta Autodrive I ESC which was made by Kevin Orton as well.

My favorite oldie is the 2nd ESC I owned, a Tekin TSC 411-G2. It's got quite a bit of mileage on it but was a solid ESC. One of the first to have solder posts iirc. I'm not sure how well the regenerative braking actually worked but that was pretty cutting edge stuff for 1993. It came with used LXT I...

So many to choose from! I was always a novak guy when i raced, but the Tekin 410-k always intrigued me. I have never owned one, but thought its futuristic keypad was rad.
