Re: Goldie into runner build
shumacher used to make some that looked very similar. i'm pretty sure they still do, but 2.2's.

Re: Goldie into runner build
hey there's my car!
schumacher stagger rib slim fronts are similar to the losi stagger rib fronts except losi's are 1/8 inch taller in diameter. i have both kinds here and they are both for 2.1" rims. the schumacher's come in their super soft yellow compound and you can stretch them on to 2.2" rims, the Birdsboro guys do it all the time but i still use them on 2.1'. the losi's are a harder compound similar to the old schumacher blues, but nothing compares to the schumacher's it's just a flat out awesome tire even when bald.

a cell phone shot from my painter, rusty-racing:

Just have to decide is this going on this build, or my goldie/stealth car....

Re: Goldie into runner build
I still need to pick them up from the painter. I havent decided
. I think I will leave this one for the black pan car, I have a Protech II I got when I bought a car that I fitted to the goldie for now. Now off to order wheels/tires. 
More pics once I get the stuff, trim it up and install the wrap.

Re: Goldie into runner build
so tonight was FINALLY the maiden voyage of this car.
<- that smile isnt big enough
TQ and first place in a small stock class (5 cars). I lapped everyone in the main. I will post some pics up before I clean it up, I left some race dirt on there for effect.
I tested the gold chassis car (that had the brushless in it) and it was pushing really bad, so I tossed my spektrum receiver in this one, left the 27T and Novak T1 in there (when I pulled the brushless, I couldnt leave it empty!) and headed off....first qualifier I broke the servo. My fault, no servo saver, Losi alloy steering, stock Z270 JR servo. Bad combo. So I tossed a servo saver on the Futaba 3003 (old messed up saver at that) and TQ'd in the second heat. On the tone in the main, I took off and never looked back. Car drove very well, little push (probably due to wrong tires) jumped well and was easy to drive.

OK, I have the Dynotech arms on the way and because of the quality I'm headed the direction of the RPM GT hubs, but just to clarify cause this is the first post I've found in detail on it, I want the FRONT B44 CVD's, NOT the rear right???scr8p wrote:correct. if you go with the dynotech arms, you'd want to go with the rpm gt, losi #2038, or custom works #3241 carrier. all of which require no part modifications.Darkrider wrote:Just so i understand right..i need the milled hubs to run the B4/B44 axles on the stock length rear arms correct?
Just want to make sure i don't waste 30 bucks that i don't really have
