Re: WOIN
If you plan on doing a WOIN buggy. Start with a new worlds car and go from there. They become money pits when piecing one together.

Re: WOIN
I was trying to figure out what it meant too after seeing it everywhere here. Thanks.

Re: WOIN
My question has always been where is the WOIN line drawn from just 2.2 wheels/tires to all out aftermarket builds?
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !

Re: WOIN
WOIN gets thrown around here as much as "vintage" and "edinger" on ebay. i even saw an auction on ebay the other week and they had WOIN in the description.
the whole idea was a collaboration between myself and aeiou. i had an idea, and knowing he most likely had the parts to try it, i pitched it to him. he then took that ball and ran with it. when he was done with his car, he named the concept....... what's old is new. that was like 7 years ago, and the fact that those cars are still being built like that today is crazy to me. it's one of those things that just stuck.
but if you ask me, if you are not using rpm worlds/klein arms and b4 wheels on the back of your unmolested rc10 chassis, go come up with another name.

Re: WOIN
people mount direct fit 2.2 wheels, cvd's, and carbon fiber towers on their rc10 these days and throw the old is new tag on it. they had that stuff in the 80's and 90's, what wheel are you re-inventing? just because you bought the stuff from tower hobbies last week doesn't make your idea new.
