I've seen for thread before, but glad it came back up front. You have a lot of great cars in here. I'm digging many of you paint jobs in particular, but the mechanicals too :wink:

You mention that your "old school conversion truck" hangs right in with the balckfoots? I had been wondering about that myself, whether rc10/Ultima/Jrx2 old truck conversions hung well (and still would :?: :D ) as backyard bashers...

Hi losi man, yup! Still hangin' in there. The black truck conversion is geared very low to closely match that of a blackfoot with a mabuchi 540. IMO, it's just as tough and handles better than the tamiyas. It's got maximum arm droop without binding and 40wt. oil all around. When I have a family get together rc "jamfest" there are blackfoots, a midnight pumpkin, kyosho big brute and my rc10mt. I have broken parts on it, but the opponents have suffered equally LOL! A front bumper is a must and I wish I had a rear motor guard and or rear bumper on it too. I have also run it with this tamiya/marui tire combo as well: 1/4" axles w/andy's adapter's in the rear and crp long axles for tamiya. I normally run it with 3/16" axles in back and standard axles in front with hpi star rims.
