deanx0r do you have a cover for yours? or is it just like a bare? Wouldnt it get crap in it when you used it?
Nice cars! It's made me want to paint mine and post a pic of it. I have an expensive-cheap electric car which I got about 5 years ago, I think it's called the Fox or something? A 4WD Tamiya kit model anyway. You know what I mean by expensive-cheap, it was a few hundred bucks (I think $300 or so) but is a shitload better than the pre-made ones you get from Tandy or Tricky Dicky and the like. What surprised me about it is that I got it from Woolies! I saw the same car on its own from Hobbyco for about $350, but found it on special in Woolies at Wetherill Park for less than that, and including the r/c gear. RRP was about $450 or something for both. Haven't used it for ages, but it's under my bed and easy to get out and use when I get the urge. It handles better in reverse! They should use rear wheel steering JimX.
Here's mine nothing special inside...cept 2-speed tranny...everything stock... bought it while i was over in hk.... only ran it for a few times...been sitting there for a while now.. anyone know where i can buy some spare Mugen-Seiki parts in aus... i snapped the pull-start cord deanx0r do you have icq? wanna ask you a few things bout ur car
Here's my car, Its a Serpent Impulse, very good car to drive. Have been doing quite well with it at racing. I'll see if i can get another photo of it with all the options i have for it now. I have it setup like a 1/8 scale with oneway front diff and a solid read axle. Jeff
Here's a photo of my RC body as requested: The body itself is fairly trashed, the wing got taken off when the car rolled taking a corner too fast at the track, haven't bothered to stick it back on yet. Soon I'll be ditching that body and probably getting a Dodge Stratus one.
Fai Mugen Seki parts are availible @ www.radiomodels.com.au by the way my kyosho gs11r pullstart cord was about to snap i replaced it with blind cord
Real nice car you've got there JeffreyK! Once I get serious enough in RC racing and have enough money to buy a Serpent Impulse, I'll definitely be getting one...that or a Kyosho V1R What engine you got in it?
yes the v1r is a great car as well, I have a Novarossi RS 12 http://www.novarossi.com/motori_ing/12/rs12ing.html 1.35 HP I'lll be getting the JP verson of this motor soon. I'll be in Melbourne between the 23rd and 28th Jan for the Vic Championship. I can get enough of RC racing Jeff
OMG that is one sickass engine! I just bought myself a Novarossi CX12PS and I thought that was bloody powerful, yours must be ridiculously fast! Is the VIC Championship being held at the Lilydale Track?? I hope so, I'm a member there....awesome track! I'd definitely go along to watch if I wasn't holiday'ing up in Brisbane then!
I know its not much but i got a Kyosho Pure Ten Gp Spider Mk II, pretty standard except the 2 speed transmission... Going to get a new shell when i got the cash
