Some of my new (old) stuff.

Post by ifuonlyknew »

First a little about me. I have been racing r/c cars for about 16 years. I started driving r/c cars at about 6 y/o, some of my ealiest memories are driving figure 8's with my dads old Tamiya Rough Rider. When I was 8 y/o, my dad got me a Kyosho Ultima II for Christmas. This was my first new r/c car. I still have the Kyosho and the Rough Rider (I want to restore it and give it back to my dad). I have been in the hobby ever since, I would race for a few years, take a break race MX or do something else, but r/cing was always there as a fall back good time. Over the last few years I have been concentrating my free time on r/c racing. Last year I went to the Off-road Nationals and some other big races. I was planning on going to the Nationals again this year, but I am going to miss it by a couple of weekends because i'm in the Air Force, and i'm deployed right now. So I figured I would race the Vintage Nationals instead. So I have been buying stuff to get some vintage rides going for the Nationals. Here are a couple of the cars that I have bought since being gone. I also have 2 other RC-10's at home already (1 six gear, short arm, one with no trans, and short arms. I also have a spair stealth trans. Also a Tekin mid-motor conversion still in the shrink wrap. I have a mint Traxxas Bullet, and 2 Losi XX's. I got the Graphite off of RCTech for $65. The other one is off of the Bay. I'm sure there was a couple guys on here looking at it. Sorry about the pics, these are the only ones I have because I have not actually got to see the cars yet. Once I get home (July) I will take some good pictures. Any help identifying the rare parts on either of these cars would be much appreciated, I am pretty new to this vintage game. When I bought those other 2 RC-10's I just had too much on my plate to figure them out. I also bought a Yokomo 834B (not exactly sure which one it is, but this is the wrong section to post about it so I am going to start a thread in the Yokomo area). So, what do you guys think?
