yea it sucks rc pics wont allow more than 40 sec vids unlees i drop the quality(so i have to cut all my vids up ) gotta find a better upload site

I wish more people would use YouTube or video.google. The WMV stuff is a pain in the neck in OSX and Linux, and it's free hosting with a good length limit, and it's wicked easy to post videos.

Here's some pics of my old Tamiya Hotshot (1985), Kyosho Vanning (1986), and a new build 1987 MRC Acoms Excalibur Hawk boat, which I know isn't a buggy but since it was put out by the same company that owned Tamiya and made components for cars back then, I felt it was a noteworthy addition. I recently restored both cars; the Hotshot has full ball bearings, an original Techipower motor, and a Duratrax ESC.

I can't put my finger on it, maybe it's the driver, but there's just something about that Vanning that SCREAMS "80s."

Very cool car. How does the Hotshot drive?

Here is my Ol' Traxxas Blue Eagle..

Original Tires.

Nice work, man. Looks really good. I'm going to pick up that Baja Bug body in a couple of weeks when I order the XXX-T Sport. I like more realistic bodies, they just look a lot better to me. I'm getting really sick of the airbrush fade paint and flames. The XXX-T comes with a pre-painted body, and it's got the stupid airbrush fade, and... wait... are those FLAMES? On an R/C CAR? Wow. Now THAT is truly original.

no jumping pics but i can say is durable esp with the orignal a-arms (newer replacement parts are the t3 arms and are allot more brittle still have yet to break a a-arm and one had a crack in it when i bought )
the rpm a-arms are awsome to

RPM makes some heavier duty a- arms:

Only $10. I haven't tried them myself, I'm still hoping a friend of mine has my rc10 in his closet....

Heh, I had a Marui Jeep too as my first car, I had it for like a year before I could afford a radio for it. I painted the body camo, it looked great. I wish I could find one again, but they don't turn up on eBay very often.

I just bought a Losi Junior T on Ebay, [link]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6058110290&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1[/link], it looks good and a nice body. I want to find a 5 link suspension and install it
