The car looks great. I use those connectors on all of my cars and really like them.

Hello. I see you are new here. Welcome to the club.

Nice. I'd go see them. I saw Gary Numan last December. His sound quality was amazing. Every song sounds just like you hear it on CD, old and new. I can also highly recommend his most recent 3 albums. It's a total change of pace from his earlier work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHomCiPFknY I know what you mean about Fall being the perfect season for certain music. For the longest time, I only listened to Type O Negative in the Fall and Winter.

Most of that, plus: The Cure Peter Murphy Depeche Mode Blancmange The Creatures (Siouxsie) New Order / Joy Division The Psychedelic Furs pre-90's Madonna (yep, I admit it) Dead or Alive (yep, admit that one too) Spandau Ballet

My girlfriend wants the Wall Hugging Mouse. http://www.tamiya.com/english/products/70198hugging_mouse/index.htm

Do you have a gyro hooked up on it?

F201. Getting to the motor or servo is a bit of a task.

Because Roadkill.

Thanks! I'm adding that to my list. My M06 Alfa Sprint is getting the buggy treatment. Or, better yet. I now have another reason to get another M-Chassis. Could make a FWD buggy out of M05. That would be interesting.

Got a pic? I'm tempted to turn my M06 Alfa Sprint into a buggy from just the thought of it alone.

So could I use UM506 with a tamiya hex from something like a M05 or TT02? I know, these are questions that I could easily answer myself once I get the parts.

I read somewhere on here that TL01B suspension will fit an M-chassis, though I cannot confirm it myself.

Seems like either one would work, right? With UM506, it'll be just like on the rear. I have plenty of spare hexes. What size hex does UM569 have? 12mm? I got plenty of spare bearings. Accidentally bought 3 different sets twice, forgetting that I had already gotten them months before.

I already ordered the Kyosho parts that I linked too. For the axles, I found part number UM506 which is listed as "Front Wheel Shaft (RB5)". The part number for the bearings help. Now I can compare to all of the extra bearings I have for my Tamiya's to see if I have the same size. Thanks for the help.

Those little crevices in the wing. I struggle with those so badly that I end up wasting half the can of paint trying to get it even in there. Then, when you think you got it, the backing color says "Nope!".

Are these the same parts you're using? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Kyosho-UM505B-Front-Knuckle-C-Hub-Set-Ultima-RT5-SC-DB-RB5/382270362133?epid=1203547644&hash=item590116d215:g:A8MAAOSwiwVWS3oM Also, what axle do you have running through them? Kyosho or a Tamiya freewheel axle?

Completely agree. Not many people know of any other racing here besides NASCAR and drag racing. Good luck finding a live F1 race on TV. I was watching a Stadium Super Trucks race on Youtube, and a coworker came up, saw it, and said "Wow, it's like NASCAR, but for men".

Yeah. Impressive. I can't do both at the same time. I'd likely trip and land on my car.

Don't forget the (W) for wet lap.

If you could keep the soil moist, that moss will continue to grow as long as it's not in direct sunlight most of the day.

On my RWD TT02, to make it RWD, I have no drive shaft or any of the front drive gear. No diff, axles, etc.. This means that I only have rear brakes and the car requires a bit of effort to get it stopped safely without spinning and/or flipping. A gyro only helps so much. I like the idea of flipping a one way diff so that it remains RWD, but has 4-wheel brakes. My question is, how could I implement this and still be able to prove that my car is RWD in the speed run videos?

Agreed 1000%. @Juggular Do you know how many body clips I now need to file? And, I don't even have enough clips as it is.

I don't have any suggestions to help the topic of the thread, but that sentence is pretty amazing considering that when I was in elementary school, I barely knew what an RC car was and computers were something you saw in a science fiction movie. We didn't learn about computers until 6th or 7th grade, and that was a basic intro to how to use the keyboard on a now vintage IBM computer. Congrats on the move. That's quite the distance. Now you can forget about the triple digit Texas heat and learn how to drive in snow. How are you liking Maine so far?

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but it's now on TamiyaUSA. https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/-road-buggies/rc-comical-grasshopper/

Very nice. Do the cutouts help air get to the motor or is it just for scale appearance? Looks good either way. If you flipped the one-way for braking, would you have 2WD forward and 4WD reverse? That sounds like an interesting idea.
