AE RC-12, prior to suspension.
We thought the little springs in the front were the coolest mod.... until they floated the back end on a spring washer!

OH YEA! ! ! ! I used to race a modified Blackfoot 15 years ago. Wish I still had it today but dont know what happened to it.
My 1st car was a fiberglass chassis with rigid suspension, white plastic slotted mags w/foam tires. Had an upper deck to mount the motor and had a solid rear axle. With a 15 turn that sucker would fly. It was called a Rolling Chassis. I have been looking for another one but forgot who makes it.

Team Losi LXT. Still have it, still runs but I may end up selling it for money to buy another truck or something like that...
My first nitro was a RS4 3 and I would recommend HPI to anyone but I'm just not a big fan of on-road.

tamyia grasshopper II .... then a RC 10 (gold tub)
first nitro.. Savage 21.
the savage got me back into RC cars after many a year out of it. (saw the savage sitting on the shelf at the LHS when I went in to get airplane parts and the "I got to have it" feeling came over me.
