Post by Orange »

Ok, so I am leaving for the Florida keys today, but thought I would throw this teaser up here. This will be a runner once it's finished.

I actually can't wait to race this, so the build might go quickly. Once I get home that is. :)

Nice view!!

I see you have hex in the rear, do you plan on going hex at all four corners? And if so, what wheels are going on?

I guess I can divulge some info... I have already tested it. Hexes will be at all 4 corners. Width will be nearly exact to b4. Give or take a millimeter or so. Wheels, any new style b4 wheels.

Bikini pics will come when I go to the beach. The place I'm staying I think the average age is 70 or so. :( (its a swanky timeshare)

Got a little work done on this today... Here is some progress:

So my idea is to make an RC10 close to the wheelbase and width of a B4.2. Hopefully this will be fairly close. The use of Hex wheels will also be a part of this build, so making the old car up to newer specs is what I'm looking for. I bought these arms from Jake (Seabass) a while back and finally found a reason to use them, :). I took all these pics with my IPhone, so they are not the greatest, but do the job.

Rear Arms are Jakes OIN arms with T2 suspension mounts. These arms are very important, sorry for the blurry pic.

Rear B4.2 Big Bore shocks:

RC Carbonworks Rear shock tower and black worlds bulkhead, I have another shock tower ordered so this will be changed soon.:
Image
New black B Chassis with sides cut down:
Image
Arms and Suspension mounts mounted:
Image
2.25 Stealth Transmission with B4 slipper, going to upgrade slipper later. The Brace is made by Fibre-Lyte:

Transmission mounted:

Bulkhead and Shock Tower mounted plus Kyosho wing mounts:
