So, it looks like the T3 body fits okay after all. I had one fitted to a 10t with a custom kydex mount and stock pieces to mimick a T3 shock tower rest and mount and I believe it would probably work just as well on a T2. I have my T2 shock tower mounted in the stock position and the pic's are a litt...

Why wouldn't one make a lower CG tower and remove the lower shock mounts, thus mounting the shocks directly to the arm? You already tweaked the front.

I just went through the photo album and I've got to say Mr. Divitto took some great pictures! Made me feel like I was there watching the racing.

Got the B2 body painted and stickered up. It was a total rush job but the stickers help hide blems and paint bleed. I'm calling this one done, just going to glue up a set of new rear double dee's and sprinters to try out. In the last pic, it sits next to it's WOIN B3 sibling.

There are a few bright spots and silver linings. My RC10 Graphite listed for $325 in 1989 and sold for around $300 retail. My ne w RC10B7 was $385 in 2024. That's a 28% nominal increase, but corrected for 35 years of inflation it's a net decline. $300 in 1989 is equivalent to ~$760 today. The tech i...

How many times did bushed motors suck up staples from the bench or other magnetic rubbish... good times

I visited my mom this evening and took this picture of her backyard in the dark when I left because I grew up there. The digitizing of the pic turned out interesting I thought.

Lulu made it to 13 about a month ago.

Lunsford Ti hinge pins installed with brass shims on all the hinges. KNK stainless screw set installed. NOS motor plate and Factory Works motor centering kit installed. Gotta start on the paint now but super happy with the mechanical part of the build. This is my first restoration and it was just as...

Very nice platform to start from. You may want to protect those uber rare shocks from damage somehow.

That is a very elusive body as well. Should be a capable racer.

I just noticed that it has a JR2 chassis instead of the Pro SE one.

Interesting. I've heard of using toothpaste as a polishing compound because it's mildly abrasive. Baking soda toothpaste might be a good choice too, for a little extra grit. Or GoJo with pumice (which is not a toothpaste ).
