Revolution Motors

Let's see your Revolution motor collections! I love these motors,they are just the icing on the cake,on a nicely restored vintage Losi. :D I finally found a Revolution I had long lusted after-the Daytona Oval,a vicious 8x1 wind with a white label. When the motor arrived,I was very surprised to see i...

Re: Revolution Motors

Wow, been a long time since I've seen a Novak connector like that one, man! I have a good amount of vintage ESCs and they sure built 'em right, back then. Still go like troopers. I FINALLY got an MTM Revolution motor! :D The label isn't perfect, but I'm going to work on it, and I'm just happy to hav...

My RC10T Restoration

I picked up two RC10T Team Trucks last year and used all of the best parts from them. Did the hydrogen peroxide treatment on the white plastics. One truck came with a new, unpainted body :P This is the first body I've airbrushed. No mods, just period correct electronics. I really want to drive it, I...

My XXX BK Resto

This wasn't supposed to happen! I have collected and restored every Losi buggy, cars and trucks from the JRX2, onward. The cut off point was the XXX series...or was supposed to be! I somehow wound up justifying sourcing and restoring both XXX Kinwald cars. I already have the XX CR KE, might as well ...

Re: My RC10T Restoration

Truck looks great! I just finished up restoring a few of them myself. You can get reproduction decals from MCI Racing. Thanks Mark! I'm looking for the decal that goes on top of the cowl hood, MCI don't have them, last I checked. I do 99% of my restos box art, so it's bugging me a bit. :? A very ni...

Re: Blue for for Graphite box art car?

Wow, I need to get a body and paint it box art for my Graphite. I never bothered putting a body on it, the chassis just looks amazing, but this is the go. It's a Viper body, right? Mmmmm, vintage graphite...Man, I need to lose the rear Losi tires, does anyone have a pair of Associated tires for sale...

My Unhinged Bigwig

Merry Christmas! Hope everyone had a great day with family. I've owned a few Bigwigs, both in the late '80's and one I built one about ten years ago, by buying every part until I had a complete kit, ready to assemble, in front of me. That one was fun. Couldn't help snap a re-release up. I originally...

Turbo Mid Score

I hope everyone is coping with the pandemic as best you can. I just picked this lot up, it cost me a good US$300, but I think it's worth it. Sold the Dynatech to a mate, so that took the cost down. Looks like a Proline or JG truck conversion and a Sassy chassis-might put some tires on it and run it ...

Absolutely!
Just trying to find a new SWB chassis and I think I sold the new wheels I had, too. :(

Re: Kyosho Turbo Ultima SCORE/Build Thread

Build it, paint it box art, put some Tamiya wheels and tires on it, run it once, then shelve it. I had one when I was 13 in 1989, it was super fun! A friend got an Avante as a Birthday present and was talking all kinds of smack of how he was going to drag my ass. By the time he gets it built and com...

The 'Family'.

I think I have a touch of OCD. What began years ago with the purchase and restoration of a JRX2 because I thought the 5 link rears were funky, turned into buying and restoring with box art bodies, every Losi buggy, touring car (Street Weapon IWCE) and truck made, from the first JRX2 until drawing th...

RC10 Team Car Redux

I had the chance to buy an RC10 Team Car that had been raced for most of it's life around 5 or so years ago. I really liked Viper bodies and wanted to do a paint job along the lines of my Gold Pan, but it turned out AWFUL. I tried to remedy the situation by plastering it with the coolest vintage dec...

Re: The 'Family'.

The XXX stuff just...

Re: RC10 Team Car Redux

Honestly, I don't see any awful mistakes. All of your cars look awesome to me. 8) So, I'm a little confused (that's common for me :oops: ) which one needed to be wet-sanded :?: One of my best friends has the number plate 'XLR8'! It's been on Skylines, a 350Z, a 370Z and now his WRX. :D So, the seco...
