A replica of a very famous RC on the track

Wow! I just stumbled upon this very cool short video. :shock:



And his Youtube channel contains many more videos of this and other iconic vintage RC's.

The car looked like it rotated well too! Awesome seeing another get raced.

I agree, his car does rotate well. My car understeers tremendously!

Anyway, your name came to mind as I created this post - I thought you might enjoy seeing these. :wink:

I think this is my favorite of all his Stealth 91 videos. That cool little power-on wheelie at the beginning. :D



Man, what a car!! It seems right at home on that very rough track. :mrgreen:

Man, it's flat out STUCK through those ruts while steering, that's really impressive! No wonder Masami was able to do so well with it. Well, that and his dump truck load of driving talent and skills... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The car was designed for rough bumpy terrain, and it excels under those conditions. On a modern track with hairpins it takes a lot of tuning work to get it to behave reasonably well. Ultimately you have to break hard to get the rear end to come around and finesse the throttle accordingly. It’s like driving a 911. ;-)
