Popular Post Buggy Malone Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) My little project is nothing like some of the fantastic machines you see on here but I'm trying to bodge-together something that resembles a modified Toyota MkVI Supra on a Tamiya TA-02W chassis. The car and the shell were secondhand but it has come up OK when painted. I'm just not sure how I go about making the style of decals that I want to apply. P.S. The passenger window doesn't have ripples - that's just a reflection. Edited December 19, 2021 by Buggy Malone 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post J.K Posted December 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2021 On Sunday I attended my first big carpet race with 4 others - a 6 hour team endurance race! 10 teams of 5 drivers racing for 6 hours - basically whichever team completes the most laps wins! The big twist - for the first 2 hours you were only allowed to run one set of rear tyres between your teammates. This means pit stops to swap the rears onto the next car! For the final 4 hours you could each run just one set of tyres which needed to last until the finish so tyre management played a part. I think between the 5 of us we completed just over 900 laps in the 6 hours! Had a blast until my ESC shorted and caught fire with 50mins to go! 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good bits/bad bits? I want to ask my club if they could do something like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post leongordon234 Posted December 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2021 Took the tt01e out for a shake down after a rebuild It's running a 5.5t motor with a sc8 esc The running gear got that hot it melted the tunnels where the bearings sit and caused the gears to not mesh 🤣🤣 Rebuilt the Diffs with some car brake grease and this thing runs sweet as now 😁😁 Also took the hpi savage xs for a little blast, Was great fun but need to attach the wheelie bar as it spent more time on its roof mid speed run 🤣🤣 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have mine from my previous Savage I'd just need the back plate for the engine. Though I'm not to bothered by the pull start as the roto start is just something else to carry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
