Okay here you go.
Hi my name is Jim and I am addicted to tecnacraft wheels.
This is my collection that has taken me years to accumulate. I have found some in hobby shops near and far, some from ebay and some as far away as the Philipines. Funny thing though, these were all made in a machine shop that is about 50 miles from my home. below comprises my collection except that I traded one set of buggies to Melvinsarmy in exchange for the smaller size ones I used on my original RC10. There is also one set missing that were completely taken apart at the time I took this photo.

Welcome.
If memory serves me right, you are in Dearborn right? I just moving out of the Metro Area after 10 years... worked in Allen Park. where in Dearborn are you (you don't have to give me an address ) You obviously are a collector and I am surprised that we never bumped into one another. It is a shame you joined the forum now as opposed to 8 months ago just before I left.
I am not here cause I am playing photographer and on my mountain bike. www.gojammedia.com
Shodog... MUST you always be topless when photographing your cars? What do you do lay down in the pile of wheels and push them all over you like that scene in American Beauty. LOL

Ahh, this thread just made my morning. Welcome to the forum! Sweet collections, it's nice to see another huge Technacraft collection. I've got two RC10 sets, and I feel extremely lucky to have them. My holy grail is still the Technacraft aerofoil wing.
Oh, shodog isn't topless when he takes his photos. He's totally nude!
I have used only one set on my Old school race clodbuster, The rest have never been run. I have bought 2 vehicles from Dahms racing bodies, Their dirt oval, and their blackfoot just for the wheels. Interesting side note about the black blackfoot shown in the picture...I put it there for a reason, it might not look like a set of tecnacraft wheels on it, but they are...In fact, those are prototype wheels...Dahms somehow got them from tecnacraft and used them on their truck for advertising. So I have a standard set and a one of a kind prototype set on my trucks. They have very large holes, and are unlike anything I have ever seen before.
