We did that in 2013 too.
I didn't like the modern offset wheels.

I recently saw pictures of WAPO or the Times, I don't remember which, but is was a major newspaper with two completely different headlines on the same cover story depending on what area of town, i.e. which side of the aisle, was going to be reading it. We do not have any credible news outlets anymore.

Back in the mid nineties, my buddy ran a Manta in the 4wd class at our local track. It was actually a decent 4wd car with updated rubber, electronics and adjustable turnbuckles. However the achilles heel of the car was always the Tamiya plastic pinion adjustment ring. Just couldnt handle the power t...

Hi

I just got this Car kit and I have noticed a lot of in and out play with the rear axles. Shimming the axles inward from inside of the tranny case would also be good idea.

Thread Bump. This Traxxas XL-3 esc is one I searched for a long time. I love it for how it looks, and how rare they are.

RC porn!

Congratulations on a magnificent find!

I think all fans of Schumacher would like to have this in their collection, will you be building it up or leaving it in the box

Thank you for sharing the opening of this time capsule!

If you build it, we will watch

Man, that's really awesome! Love seeing these OG vintage buggies showing up.

To the surprise of absolutely no one, I am going to say Pro Cat is the bargain of the vintage offerings. :lol: That is a lot of buggy for ~$320 and it doesn't have any issues. Amain even had it for ~$275 briefly. Cougar Classic is pretty reasonable at $249, but I suspect there will be an even lower ...

Agreed on Schumacher, for what you get they are fantastic. Kyosho quality is awesome and the prices are ok. Yokomo and AE are too high for what you get. The quality is just not great. I will also say for the money the Tamiya Top Force, Manta Ray, and Super Astute are not too shabby! You don't get fu...

My money is on Kyosho and now Schumacher. I have the Turbo Scorpion, JJ Ultima and Optima Mid 60th anniversary and all of them were amazing to build with great fit and finish and instructions that don't lead you astray. I just recently built the Cougar 2 Works and am very impressed with the quality ...
