Got a nice sunny day today, so soaking the SRT chassis and rear bulkhead in 12% peroxide.

I took my printed car out for a run on the local offroad track, along with my B6.3 and a recently acquired T5M. The printed car is a Badger, a front wheel drive.
Has anyone seen one here?
I also bought another project, a Kyosho Inferno (original), looks to not have a lot of time on it, buy is filthy and rusty.

Starting on a pro mod

That Pro Mod car looks very cool with its exposed ring and pinion gear!

This afternoon, I'm just playing in the dirt.
I raced an RC10 with this Renegade body and wing about 35 years ago; further proof that I never throw anything away.

Prepping is underway for this year's Kinwald Klassic at Hobby Action in Chandler, AZ.

Made a hump pack for my Hornet. Kinda shocked you can still buy NiCad batteries in 2023

No pictures but took apart my last casualty from Friday's racing, a Savox SC-1258TG servo that started to lose center and locked up on me. Turns out that it was just the case that got damaged internally. $5 and she should be back in service in a different car.

I don't think it was that particular model but I did see a FWD buggy in the pits a month or so ago. They really stick out, very alien in nature.

Cleaned and soaked the SRT rear bulkhead and fiberglass chassis in 12% peroxide for 34 hours, about 10 hours in sunlight. Before and after pics for comparison. The battery box sides were not in peroxide.

Working on the mongrel. I need to tear the gearbox apart and figure out what is rubbing in there.

Finishing a project tonight

Built a trailer for a friend

Stripped the old worn anodizing off, prepped, painted and cleared the Traxxas SRT motor guard & plate. Now need to wet sand and buff. Really liking this color.

Installed some new parts on my 5-link ProSE.. RPM front spindles and uprights to compliment the RPM swept front arms. Also a set of 1.5” Kinwald blue springs for the .6 front shocks.



And a nice Trinity Maxzilla battery pack because the buggy just needs more color..

Assembled a tranny.

Last night I started working on whatever TH this thing is. I think I have figured out about half of it, but it is soon going to get real uncomfortable for the driver.
