Re: The BMX (and other bikes) thread

While I’m not anything like I was as a kid, my 11 year old has surpassed me in the no fear area! All my kids walked and talked early, but he was walking at 9 months, figured out a 2 wheel bike at about 2 1/2. His first real bmx bike was a 12” Kink Roaster, then a 16” Sunday Primer, and we stepped hi...

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - January 2025 ** - Winner - coxbros1

This is my tribute build to the Original Racing Master 956 as featured in the 1985 Tamiya Guide Book. This car and the Toyota Toms 84c highlighted 1/12 on road racing in that book. I have the Toms on the RM2 chassis, but they’ve become so expensive so went looking for something also that I could fit...

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - January 2025 ** - Winner - coxbros1

This is sort of a What's old is new but also a ReRe , this definitely could have been done and is inspired by the A+L trailing arm conversions , it uses ReRe Kyosho Scorpion rear trailing arms mounted to the back of a Yokomo 834b ReRe . This allows some camber change as the wheel rises plus a little...

An insane Drillinator got his tools on this pitful Yoke. I would love to know if this was done intentionally. Or is this neighbour's revenge after fighting his dog too hard? I never will find out because this Fighter came to me already mistreated in 2018. I jazzed it up with nice electronics. World ...

Re: im an idiot

Not sure if this does or doesn’t help with the pullstart ideas. This one was setup like this when I picked it up a couple years back.

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - January 2025 ** - Winner - coxbros1

Not super vintage but it's Associated first official 4wd buggy. This is an early kit which has been raced a couple seasons on carpet and put away just as you see it, there is still carpet fuzz in the wheels.
