Re: Traxxas Sprint Car

The chassis looks interesting. I drove a C4 Vette for many years and they used a single transverse leaf spring at both ends and they were PLASTIC! :shock: We prefer the word 'Composite' It's more fancy. I had a '90 Olds Trofeo that also used a transverse leaf spring. It's a pretty neat way of lower...

Re: 1/1 Wild One Max

Re: 85' IFMAR Gil Losi Jr. replica

Love it! great idea using more modern cells disguised as the old school sanyos I might have to do that for a few of my older models.

Re: My "New" JRxPro SE Build thread

Rare to see in unrun condition!

Just a word of caution if you do decide to run it you might want to opt for a higher turn motor. The LRM transmission is a bit fragile.

Rogue's JJ Ultima retrofuture edition

So after building the JJ I decided to do a bit of tinkering to it to better suit my home track, RCM, which is high grip grey carpet. I used the Turbo Scorpion wheels with JC fuzz bite tires. Front wheels i cut off the inside bead and left the inner rib to fit the skinnier front tires. IMG_20240211_1...

Re: Rogue's JJ Ultima retrofuture edition

Crappy video of me driving the car at the track for the first time. https://youtu.be/9ILZuEcreV0 9ILZuEcreV0 I didn't have a way of holding the camera so it was just propped up at the corner of the track. Also part of it is muted because apparently Speedwagon really gives a crap that their music is ...

Re: RC pictures that make you happy

Not sure why, but this pic I did of my Mini JRX-T today in the pits really makes me happy.

I hadn't really driven this truck much since mid last year. and it didn't let me down today. Probably one of the best handling and fun minis I've ever driven.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Installed a lipo in my DX5R.
But apparently the radio won't turn off if the battery is over 8.41v. Well I will not stand for this tom foolery so I raided my basement for a switch, tore apart the radio and did some surgery. Now I have a hard power cutoff switch.

Re: The ultimate Mini JRX2 thread

Here I go again, doing weird stuff with this chassis. Designed up a scaled down replica of the Composite Craft top plate for the mini JRXT chassis. I had adjusted it to fit my relocated battery hold down but then noticed I had inadvertently made it nearly the same size as a shorty lipo. So behold, a...
