I always get a kick out of it being called a hotshot clone. Besides the front knuckles and shock plastics not much else is even close to fitting. The hotshot was mid motor. Cantilever monoshock rear. Completely different diffs. Ripper had 4 wheel steering with dual bellcranks. Hotshot had no cranks....

Hello, my name is Todd and I'm an RC10aholic. My entire RC Hobby life has been focused and revolved around Tamiyas. The Tamiya Astute was my first RC, followed by an Egress, Monster racer, and finishing up with a Too Force. That's was it, shortly after the Top Force I discovered girls real cars, col...

I finally got all the pieces delivered and finished the car.

I’ve lived in Texas since 1986 and haven’t seen weather like what we’re having this week. Houses and power grid not set up for this. Frozen pipes, no power, store shelves bare, no gasoline, hotels booked, roads treacherous, etc. I even had snow in my attic that blew in through the roof vents, but do...

I thought that I had last place wrapped up with a Digger. But threesheds said that he would battle me for last and came prepared. But not to go down without a fight, he got my vote.

Ok, own up, who pressed the wrong button and gave me a vote.......no it wasn't me!

We, me and "the diamond one" have a new appreciation for the Bolink Invader line, including the MT. Nothing to show cause we dont have one. Maybe someone will have one to show.

My First RC car was a Tamiya Bear Hawk. I didn't know what I was doing when I built it up but the instructions were good enough to get it running. Over the years I Frankensteined that car trying to get more from it than was ever intended for. I don't remember, but it may still be sitting in a junk b...

I made this bracket with some scrap metal. 1" aluminum flat bar bolted to a piece of 1.25" steel bar. I tried it out but it really needs something more substantial. It will stay upright while running but vibrates around. It will also torque over on a full power start. I think a small selec...

I've got one with the rear suspension and I think Jeff has a couple.

Really hope the wife doesn't want to hang out tonight.....................

she will....then u know u will be distracted because of that car.....so when she notices she will say "is something wrong?" or something along those lines....you will say "nothing is wrong" then there might be tude!...only because u are thinking about your new car and not them......

Interesting. That kinda makes me wonder how Kyosho rated the RPMs of their Le Mans motors, as their older motors were all intended for 7.2-volt NiCad batteries, but what about the later cars that were intended to run 8.4V NiCads and 240S-variant motors on those 7-cell packs--like the Turbo Optima an...
