No rules about it having to be a vintage rally car, so that'd be perfect!:thumbsup:

BTW my shell has arrived!

:o cool ....

are you having it pro painted ? and what like ?

just noticed ... the poll now reads 12 for and 12 against !!!! that's pretty much a win for rallycross then !!

I'd also like to add that the Mini bodied Sharks are also eligable for this ....

peetbee 06-09-2011 04:12 PM
It's with DCM to be painted Computervision style, always liked Tony Pond plus the decals that are supplied are for that car!!:lol:

Hey it'll look good on the shelf whilst it's not being run

evilbert 06-09-2011 07:45 PM
13 people for.... now lets see how many actually race :p

peetbee 06-09-2011 09:28 PM
3 probably Bill! :(
Still we can always share track time with the trucks:o

mrspeedy 07-09-2011 10:33 AM

Just need to make a battery strap, or might just use tape like usual :p

Performance
 
Lol just tried out the beast and was amazed at the LACK of performance:eh?:

So with full peaked 3000 nimhs, the mtroniks viper esc endpoints reset and matching 15x2 motor cleaned and brushes checked the get up and go is somewhat lacking last place here i come!!! pmsl:lol::lol:

Hmm maybe the 10.5 or 13.5 brushless setup needs to go in it otherwise i may not clear the jumps:p

peetbee 07-09-2011 01:01 PM
Excellent, I love the idea of these all struggling round on brushed motors! It's looking good there Dave :thumbsup:
Mine will be running an old LRP speedo (I don't think reverse will turn off!) plus some elderly 19t brushed motors!
I still haven't built my car yet tho, I think Steve will have finished the shell before I get chance!:o

What shell did you go for in the End Si?

Dyna 07-09-2011 01:45 PM
I just remembered i have one or two brand new TA02 touring chassis in the loft, fully kitted out with period TRF parts... that would do as a chassis... :thumbsup:

That mint, new 911 bodyshell i have is the old 'converted buggy' type and is very wide.... too wide for converted tourers...

So i need a new shell.

I do remember, years back, that someone did a MK3 Escort RS Turbo/XR3i shell that fitted 1/10 tourers... and as ive always owned Mk3 Escorts and still own three, i really ought to track one of these old shells down to use...

Can anyone remember who made them, and if anyones got one still kicking around ?

I had a parma sierra rs500 in castrol livery on my converted optima mid custom way back in the day:thumbsup: god i loved the huge whaletail on it aswell:wub

Dyna 07-09-2011 01:56 PM
Yes, my 911 is the original 80's Parma shell and i remember the RS500 shell too :wub

I still want to run a Mk3 escort shell though... :D

mrspeedy 07-09-2011 03:28 PM
I used to have a mk3 shell in black :woot: on a Sand Scorcher chassis ...

But I can't flippin' remember who made !!!

Clioman_2000 08-09-2011 08:37 AM
im still determined to get something sorted..... just trying to sort our a base car first then get something sorted shellwise....

waiting for a few people to get back to me with offers...

sounds awesome what everyone has got..... i reckon you should put some pics up to show us what you got... and maybe encourage a few more people....

peetbee 08-09-2011 09:47 AM
Shell's painted:woot:
Just got to collect it and sort the car out!

Matt, I think that you may struggle with that one - I do like the way that it is no surprise to people that you have cars in the attic that you've forgotten about! Just how many cars do you have?!

DCM 08-09-2011 09:59 AM
Me and the kids will be doing some RallyX at COBRA, Tamiya TA05's and a TB03 will be in use, team paint jobs, may well be Subaru route...

Just dug out my old yokomo mr_4 rally but the rear diff dead.

peetbee 08-09-2011 10:39 AM
John, I spotted someone on MSUK selling one of those posted for £25, could be worth it for spares?

LOL @ Matt - you need to take a look up there, you may find a suitable shell!
