Need a nose cone and sunroof to finish of my MB heapish runner, don't mind a few scrapes and old paint, must be cheap if poss, as I'm skint :-) Give me a message if you can help. Ta

Can anyone tell me if there are different rate springs available for Monster beetle stock shocks? Just refurbed some (well new oil) and they seem a little hard for my liking, or will it be a case of check the length and diameter and fine some that would fit. I'd like it to be a lot softer so it sits into turns etc.

The bin man must have thought it was christmas

No way, I think I'd have to dig a hole in the garden put her in it and build an RC shed on top, maybe name the shed after my late wife because that's all she would deserve, that's dia man. On a more serious note, I agree that if you are in love you interests should not conflict, my fiance is totally fine with all of my many hobbies, I still spend time with her and we share responsibilities, (kiddy winks, animals) She sounds like a control freak, has an idea of what she wants and is trying to mold him into it, which will breed contempt, leave quick I say before more dreadful things start happening.

I can't see what it says.... tell me? looks to be wired in..... what am I looking for? Cheers

I will look into a beach with camping facilities, will make some calls to sites see what I can find out. Petrol is a pain in the bum! When I got on the road it was 64p per ltr and that was only 11 years ago! maybe a beach in the mids some where? location ideas please......... I know there is an awesome beach in formby near southport with great dunes and all sand I think there is a camp site near buy will look into it, If we can get the numbers up it would be ace to do. If not will have to be a south west dooooo. There has to be loads of great locations all ideas welcome... LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Low on funding so cheapness is always what I aim for, and if its that bum I can remove it. Its just looks cool and will be a nice bit of eye candy for my scorcher.

Just an Idea at the moment for next summer, an RC version of R.T.T.S, would love to here ideas about location (Cornwall?), dates? basically a large beach gathering, run what you brung beach drag racing, some dune climbing etc, no stalls or entertainment, just a meet on the beach scorchers very welcome :-) but anything goes sort of thing. Maybe have a few naff home made trophies for best buggy, best vdub best truck etc, get some good photos What do you think?

I know its junk......but it looks cool, and to have it fitted but not wired is a bit of a cop out, so I'm gonna fit it anyway for looks more than anything. Will solder it straight to the deans I think. If I can't get hold of a NOS decal it wont be fitted. Cheers for the reply man

Looking for a wild willy NOS decal, give me a msg if you can help. Many thanks Tom

I have just bought a capacitor for my ESC and believe you need to fit it to the battery wires? Can anyone suggest a decent wire splitter or way of doing this? would it be advisable to use a standard block type one like used in the home, then seal it? Or could I twist the wires together and solder them to the same deans plug? Think that might be a bit to much for the tiny plates. Any tips, ideas much appreciated. Thanks Tom

I'd like a 2010 ss and have an original that I'm thinking of trading, its not fully complete but has a good original chassis radio box, shell, gear box, cage. I'm working on 2 ss's and would like the 2010 rear set up on one, so I'm asking for full trade, new for old if thats fare? the front end is MK2 gear box chassis and shell MK1 no wipers, blinkers or handles, the body has a few scrapes but no splits cracks or repairs (rare) windows are a little yellowed. No bumper (I sold it woops) One of the rear arms has a crack where the grub screw is, no torsion bar but have one if you desire. Wheels are a little worse for ware, but I won't need any in the trade. If your interested give me a message and want more info. My camera is broken but should have a new one buy next week for pics. I'm unsure if this is a possible trade but have posted anyway. I don't do shelfers so would be a shame to keep using the shell. And I know some of you peeps like to build up the old timers. I'd like to keep it and restore it but funding is an issue and I love running the SRB's. Thanks all.

Cheers guys, just bought some squadron filler see how that goes. Cheers for the response

Hey all. I need help on selecting the right filler to use on my scorcher shells something that wont soften the plastic. Thanks

Brilliant thanks peeps, will look into futuba I think for my price range, need lots of bit for my scorchers so have to keep costs down Cheers again

Hi could anyone advise me on a decent moderately priced servo? I normally use hi-tec. I am looking for something for a scorcher, I recently bought a cheap acoms as12 and also use a as7 but they seem a little slow, Would anyone advise a metal gear servo? if so what make don't want to spend more than £10 really. Any advice much appreciated. Thanks

Oh well, cheers for the info on clod lights will have a look. Thanks

Something like this (celica grb) but any decent looking ones will do preferably with lenses and a good size. Do you have something in mind? (pic) Cheers man

Have a vintage rear cage showing its age a bit but not broken, has the pipes still fitted, looking for square headlights, fog lamps, also vintage scorcher door handles or copies. Give me a shout if your interested I can send pics. Thanks Tom

Hi all, have a re re scorcher exhaust still on the tree and the clips for fitting also have mirrors, looking for square headlights and fog lamps. If anyones interested? Thanks Tom

No I knew there would be some prep, well a lot with what I have in mind but the sunken areas are just a bit of a *******, who wants a chrome shell? well unless its just going to sit on a shelf or you have enough cash to collect them all. Cheers for the response, I'm off to mark out my arches ready for cutting. Thanks

Hi all, I recently bought a 2010 scorcher body kit. I was pleased when it arrived all in £35. But on closer inspection it was full of flaws, there are sunken areas on the body where its come off the mold 4 on the roof and one big one in the nose, it was also a bit rough in the cut (not much to sand but still) Just wondering if anyone else has had one like this or its just my luck? My life seems to be governed by the law of sod anyway so this is no different, ha Is there anymore out there? maybe a bad batch? Thanks Brayling

Hey all hope we are all well? I'm after a celica headlight unit no grill needed or any square headlights really maybe from a jeep or truck of some kind? Also some square fogs like on the holiday buggy 2 of, but preferably 4, have nothing to trade really but can pay through paypal immediately. There must be some spare knocking about somewhere? Can offer to paint a driver for trade? Give me a shout if you can help. Thanks Brayling

Yep, the bugs are aching to hit the sand, they may have prior to my ownership, if only they could speak. Ha Will bring my ramp along. looking forward to it.

Hi, interested in the wild one posted to sunny old England Let me know, Thanks Brayling
