Oh and I ride Mountain bikes.

Yepp....sign me up for two.... An Ultima turned into a sprint car, one that I wanted so bad when I was a Junior. That thing still looks dang radical, lol. Back in the 80's we had many that got the RC10 sprint conversion kits.... I was so freaking envious and wanted one soooo bad .. I mean I dreamed about it. Song f they do make the RC10 sprint....oh you bet I'm getting a few of those.
-
Well if a sprint car version comes out, I'm getting 5 of them... That's 100% and going to disregard any new years resolution I have. Associated can have all my money IDC

For real?... Oh man this is getting insane lol.

With my new Losi Sprint car coming and plans to actually race this I had ordered a few upgrades for it. Plan is to keep it mostly stock, exceptions to make it quite competitive are .. the proline light weight, lexan body panels(stock body is much too heavy. I also got a 13.5 motor so it's legal in the class I'm going to race. I also added carbon front a rear towers for more adjustability and a bit lesser weight. That's all I'm doing with this car other than gear changes, tire compounds and shock springs/valving/oil. For the first few races tho...100% box stock. Merely just adjusting the wedge to see if it responds to changes. Man this is going to be fun and possibly I'll be the one starting a new class of Losi sprints.

Well..... Couldn't hold out and I folded up. I have a green, Losi 22s Sprint on the way😅

Proline just released a light weight, polycarbonate body/wing for the Losi sprint and manufacturers are putting out tons of upgrades already, including Losi with all carbon chassis and towers if you'd like. With the lighter proline body, some carbon fiber parts a 13.5 motor and softer compound tires I can see this competing with the higher end enforcers and Custom Works cars. The cool thing is, anyone can go get this car right now and race. If they really enjoy racing.... The parts to make it even more serious are ready to go, no need to go out and by a bare bones, 500 dollar custom works car Plus...this thing looks sweet. I'm really about to pull the trigger big time right now ..I'd love to be the first one of these at our track.... Race it as is.... And see how it runs.
-
Oh God I'm about to fold up, lmao .. My justification is ...I resisted every RC10 after the 40th, so ... This sprint car can be my reward, hahahahah.

Just when you have done well with a new years resolution to NOT buy any new kits for a year(build the ones I have) Losi has to drop this!! Being a big fan of dirt track oval racing, modified, sprint cars ect....also occasionally participating in RC oval track racing with my modified Traxxas Slash and sprint car, there is no doubt that I am foaming at the mouth to get this brand new sprint car by Losi based on the TLR 22. THIS is going to be very hard to resist ... I mean I have resisted all of the new RC10 that have come out, including the 4wd....but this new Losi....well.... I'm being tested big time right now, LMAO. I can do this.....I can resist....😂😔😁 https://youtu.be/yNKfxsfJ-xk?feature=shared

I'm just going to take a long break from the Internet. Reading about the latest drama in the USA, drives me up the wall. I'm generally expecting ww3 to happen, it's crazy I guess getting off of the Internet for a while, will let me do more stuff that should get done around my place. It sucks to be the type that lets the Internet "mess with him" it's flat out nuts lol. So yah I'll be gone for a while. Thanks. -

How do you erase you're account and name on here? Is there a master button to hit and delete ? Seems after my big Trump sucks thread, one is ignored and ousted for daring to show displeasure at their government on an RC car forum. (I won't apologize for disrupting talk about little toy cars) So I'd rather be shot into space than continue to post. I guess a mod can tell an admin to delete me and all my history here? -
I've held out and passed on this car, hopefully waiting for a flat pan, graphite RC10 to compliment my gold pan car

Thanks to whoever got the RC10 4WD Amain had in stock briefly today. I was about to pull the trigger on it, but thank you. This one is very hard to resist LMAO but I have to....last year's spending frenzy was absolutely ridiculous and immature on my part. -

If you are interested in that falcon I'm talking about... P/m me and I'll link the listing to you. I'm not sure if we are suppose to post stuff for sale in this section. I already got in trouble for my trump thread, so I don't want to add to my citations, lmao. -

Well Not really getting what rosebud buyer means, but I would like to have that original falcon, sealed. It's too much tho....I mean for me it is and I'm no longer interested in the "worth" of Tamiya anymore. Plus I'm betting the falcon will be released again sometime. I'd be happy with a re release for sure
