Looks like the bottom 1/2 of a homemade air filter :lol: That looks like the back plate of a prop spinner. The scored part would be where the prop would mount so it 'bites' into the hub of the prop.

Yes, I know, its a balloon :lol: But for what? I have 2 You could also put these on the motors... you'll often see old Tamiya auctions with some sort of melted goo on the motor... usually one of these :lol:

No idea Center is Futaba servo tray. Mount the servos in the openings and put the whole tray into the plane (or other application) between two hardwood rails.

Ah, that being a monster truck explains the massive :shock: ride height the rally car version has.

I don't know for sure which version was based off of which but something tells me the Nitro Thrasher came last as it always seemed oddly built to me even at 12 years old. I didn't find out until years later that there were multiple models based off of the same design. It then made sense that they must have just changed a few parts to make it into a "monster truck" from a rally car.

Last night after I made that post I started reminiscing about the truck, and vaguely remember there also being a stadium truck conversion kit you could get for it. Well maybe it wasn't an actual kit but more of how-to. I can't remember exactly or even where I saw it. It might have been in back of the manual which I still have. I'll have to look.
