Re: 1989 IFMAR Joel Johnson Ultima ?'s
What? Mid motor? No way. Must be photoshopped. I have heard from someone that knows and mid motor was never ever used back in the day. In fact it wasn’t even invented until someone mounted a motor on a RC10GT
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

Aren't you forgetting about the Raider and such designs: light-years ahead of their time

According to my sources those cars never existed. Let’s just say they probably wouldn’t be legal to race

Do you have some pictures of yours or your friend's?aip47-2008 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 28, 2018 9:26 pm
We did that too! Optima Mid gear box on an Ultima chassis.
I've posted a tiny picture a couple times before: of one of those with the original chassis and body.
It looks stunning but every time I intended building one I remembered some drawbacks... which I forgot once again
