Nasty 1/10 scale on-road cars using .21 or larger engines....come inside
3 Attachment(s)
I am a huge fan for the 1/10 scale cars using .21 or larger engines and was wondering who all besides the Miami guys and nitrohead have built them or have them? I love the challenge of getting the car to handle a full throttle take off and harness the full power under full throttle.
I found that the NTC3 was a great challenge with fitting 1/8 scale tires on it and then the exhaust was a challenge as well as the plastic ring/pinion gears which I later found out a steel gear solution for that. I then looked into the OFNA CD3 which has the center design transmission and that gave me alot better alternatives for the exhaust than the rear trans design of the NTC3 and OFNA LD3 cars. So as of right now, I have 4 OFNA CD3 cars.......one with a .21 Kangaroo in it, one with a RBmodded 3.3, one with a RBmodded RB .15 and one brand new spare car as a back-up. What do you guys have or know of anyone that has built 1/10 scale version big block cars? Any pics? Here's my CD3 with the Kangaroo in it. Attachment 2238906 Attachment 2238907 Attachment 2238908 |

bigwill, now that is what I am talking about. Why change the engine when you haven't ran it yet though? Are those supposedly fast engines or just truck engines?
I too have the wolfpack radicals adapters and man have they saved me some headace. Without the use of the large 1/8 scale tires, there's no way that I could get the car(s) to stay hooked up at all. I also wouldn't mind building a belt driven car but there's no way for me to shorten the control arms to bring the tires in further to fit under a 235mm body. Are you making your own body for yours? |

LOL. I built that NTC3 for him, it actually used to be mine......(Calvin is his name). He called me last night while you guys were out there racing. This is the old NTC3 that I built and sold to the B&E teammates. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...4/DSC00889.jpg http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...4/DSC00890.jpg http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...4/DSC00885.jpg http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...4/DSC00886.jpg |

Sorry for going O/T, but which adapters are needed? Would it be a good idea to just get "all adapters" or a specific set? Would those adapters work on my Duratrax Street Force? I would assume yes, but would like to make sure. The link that they provide to purchase their items doesn't seem to have their items...do you know of another place?

To everyone that is trying to find the wolfpack stuff....good luck, it took me almost a year to find all the stuff for my super nitro, and i am still looking for a trans, but if you can contact wolf directly he will sell you some of the stuff he has left. but there isn't that much to be honest

RE: Nasty 1/10 scale on-road cars using .21 or larger engines....come inside
Yeah I heard that wolfpack was not doing too much of any business anymore so if you can get in touch with him, that would be good for you. I know of way too many machine shops around that can easily duplicate those adapters so that is what I am going to get next as a few spares wouldn't hurt to have.

actually that looks a lot like the body i wrecked. i have a tc3 as well thats what i raced lastnite not have diff problems with the 18 as far as stripping. just slidding side ways out the hole. need those adapters or something. come to think of I it was not the one they got from u i raced. they have another car with a wicked 15 on it. the car they got from u is unreal don't know whats in it but it hits like a 1000hp big block

There aren't many people doing such a thing as we are but I am sure you can sell a few. Without the body covering the tires, you are right in having a body made to fit. I just couldn't see a car without a body to fit over those tires. I am surprised at the .30 being too much power as well but I haven't tried anything bigger than a .21 yet either. |
RE: Nasty 1/10 scale on-road cars using .21 or larger engines....come inside
yeah I'm sean. can u give me a call. i found a place that has some radical stuff in stock but the said that tc3 is not metric and adapter will not fit. dont know how tro use pm so i will out my cell number up here 919-889-3575 need to know which ones to get from them

RE: Nasty 1/10 scale on-road cars using .21 or larger engines....come inside
Brent, the biggest problem with the .30vg is the torque. a stock .30vg was fine, but when i put the modded one on its just to much for 132ft. I am thinking about going with a modded .21 nova

Hey, you guys are completely nuts for putting those oversized engines in those cars. Why would anyone bother putting anything bigger than a 15 into a car. If the companies that made those car thought it would be a great idea to mount anything besides a 15 in them, then they would have done it. All you guys are looking for is to tear up stuff in a perfectly good car. Speed isnt everything you know. There are some of us that actually like to race on tracks, so why put a motor like that in a car? I'd bet that if you ran your car and my car on a track, then I would beat you all day. 21 and bigger motors are supposed to be in trucks and true 8th scale cars, not 1/10 scalers.
Oh wait,thats all stuff I'd heard from people when I started doing that. :D Great looking cars you all. Im loving those bodies as well. Keep up the good work and keep me posted on some of those speeds. |

I really enjoy the challenge with getting the small wheelbase cars to hook up and run FAST. Sure we all know how well they run in 1/8 scale but the real challenge is in a 1/10. Heck you and that twin RB TM928 car aint no joke either but I do really like it. bigwill, man you gotta be yourself and as what was posted before, I too got the why's and it won't work and yada, yada, yadas but after doing it myself, the car handles and runs very good. There's a guy on here that goes by Nitrohead3500 and he was kinda skeptical at first doing a big block in his NTC3 but after seeing a video of mine, he put one in his and saw for himself that it can work out just fine. This thread just may inspire someone else that has been told different too. |
