My RC12LW.
Bought in 1993 when I was 16, never used then because there was not track for her, forsaken in parents' cellar when I stopped RC, she survived a flood before being rediscovered in my attic in 2021, which leads me to restart this hobby. Now, she's enjoying the local carpet track. Better late than never. Chassis: Associated RC12LW
Motor: Corally 12*1
ESC: Novak Duster Sport
Receiver: Futaba R304-SBE
Servo: Savox 1251MG
Battery: Ruddog NiMh

This is my RC10 cadillac built about 20 yrs ago and never ran. Body and wing are not the kit body as I messed up the original body cutting it out.

Poll is up. Good luck!

Back to basics!

Seeing carbon fiber plates and 12T brushed power in a Tamiya buggy is so cool! I had cast my vote before I really understood what this buggy was. Darn this 1 vote per month limit.

My brother and me begged to have that one vote rule changed to two votes but almost everyone voted against it. It would make this contest so much more fun. But oh well. Never gonna happen

My vote is in!

this was a difficult choice

I went through a select few builds a handful of times before voting (as I usually do every month). It ended up getting my vote and I was a little surprised seeing it so far behind after casting the vote.

I don't think there is a wrong vote this month. All are worthy of respect.

I usually vote based on which one I'd most like to own, which is why the JG Optima got my vote. It has all the aspects that I like.

I can't look at them as which would I most like to own because that leads to too many new wants. Like I'm already mostly hooked on wanting a Clodbuster and the one here is so over the top awesome that it looks like it belongs on Monster Jam. I would have no dreams of replicating that amount of custom build effort.

They really are all great choices this month. I personally like it when an entry pops up that has details or features I didn't expect to see, which is also most of these this month.
