6 of 10 in the A Final at the US Nationals were these "antiques". Worlds A-main qualifiers using "other" cars were in the B and C. Somebody has it figured out.

Still can't figure out how guys use stick radios. It's a car, turn a wheel. :p I know, to each their own.

Sorry to be the minus-man here but Titanium is almost never harder than steel and the hardest ti alloys are nowhere near hard enough for diff plates. It's a great structural metal, especially when...

I run a 10.5 in mod on a higher grip, small indoor track. Since the track is short, no one has any more acceleration than me, the only place it falls short is when the layout has a big gap jump with...

Get the 5700 of the two. The other is simply too much power. Check to be sure that will fit too. The Mamba Max speedo is long and the XX4s' chassis is tight to fit things. For BL, the LRP or Nosram...

Mr X, Associated pistons work in the Academy shocks. They fit tighter than they do on the Associated shock bodies so you may need to sand the edge of your pistons slightly to get them to move freely...

As long as you know your diff is tight enough you want to set the slipper to slip before the diff. One way to do a bench setting is to have a friend hold the rear wheels while you apply throttle. The...

I just assembled my GV2 kit last night. The kit went together perfectly with no snags whatsoever. The screws are better than what I am accustomed to with AE and Losi and just about the whole car uses...
