Default A true monster!! 4WD 11HP

Here is a find I picked up the other day. This was manufactured in the early 90's and was a one off prototype for the manufacturer. It is a pulling truck and I have the pulling sled for it as well. This thing would pull over 2k pounds!! It is an ANIMAL! Picture next to my 7 yr old for size comparison. Also, check this link for the history on these beasts! http://www.quarterscalelegends.com/degree.html

That thing is awesome! Take some more closeup pics!

To your son, the early 90's must seem like ancient history! LOL

Sure, here are a few pics from a few months ago. A real messy day I must say. Generally my garage is clean, but sometimes it just gets out of control!!

You can see the pulling sled for the truck in a couple shots standing UP. The red truck in the pics is a pulling truck too with a bigger engine then normal (60cc) and a special gear reduction unit.

Wow, not sure if I should be jealous, or upset......maybe both. Looks like some real craftsmanship on that, and 11hp, dear lord. Very nice, very nice indeed.

Thanks for the kind comments and I like to share pictures of my collection whenever i can to get the word out that these monsters are still out there and alive.

Sorry, but you dont get this much junk by selling any of it I hold on tight to whatever I can!!!

Mike, I must say, you workshop and collection is nothing short of amazing!

I tell you straight, I am absolutely jealous of you, not only of your collection, but also of your skills in actually making your own RCs, body molds, etc!!!!!!
Even if I had the tools that you have, I doubt that I will ever amass the same level of skill you have in fabricating and creating!

Good show! [sm=thumbup.gif]

That is sweet QSL
Does the chain run around both axles or are they seperate chains. Also what servo steers that monster. I bet it can pull a boat if hooked right!

Its two different chains. Not sure on the servo torque. I have not looked, but one would think that a big servo would not be required since its basically going to drive in a straight line. I will have to check it out when I get home.
