New guy

[j.d.roost]

Just wanted to say hi.
I have been keeping an eye on the 2008/2009 nats. threads so I
thought I would join. I am waaayyy into Tamiya cars.
I have a lot of nib/shelf queens and runners. Running my old
Hotshot around my local rc track last year gave me the itch to go
vintage racing (wish I kept that old jr pro I had). I might try and make it up for the race.
That weekend might be tough to do for me (wife and I have plans). If
not, I am working on putting together a vintage race at my local track. (Action hobby,soon to change owners/name).
I will keep you guys (gals) posted if any of you want to make a trip over to Pa.
Hope to talk more vintage rc with you all soon.
Jd

Hello j.d. I'm a fellow Hotshot enthusiast and was at last year's VONats. It was a great time. I'm in the same boat with plans for the holiday weekend, but I'm going to try to be there again.
Welcome aboard!

I will try and get some pics of my hotshot posted this week.
It has a sassy chassi and a thorp rear diff (not a shelf queen either). I had to put a funky front shock setup on it to use the sassy chassi. I am running hpi rs4 loower front arms to make it work ( hope thats not illegal for rhe race). I got tired of breaking and looking fror bigwig arms on ebay..
My Tamiya collection has thinned out over the past few years ( married/house ect.) but I will try and get some pics of of what I have. I also have a few older rcca rags so I will see if there is any ads I can add for the archives.
Talk soon.
