Just would love to get back on track for the first time in around 35 years. Just for a go. Preferably old school grass!

Cheers bud!

Have you got a link for the correct clamping ones, Jonathon?

I wish! Rough Rider Christmas '81 or '82.

Easy!!

REX RC's made it look easy on Youtube. Sorry I dont know how to post a link here yet but it appears a straight swap.

I'm starting a Rough Rider replica from a DT-02 Holiday Buggy. Obviously the dampers need upgrading. Any suggestions as to whats best? e.g. These any good? RC Aluminium Oil Front/Rear Damper Shocks Absorber for Tamiya DT-...

Thanks guys. No racing for this one but just wanted to try something thicker to compare to my other builds. Cheers!

Heard thick grease in the standard Tamiya geared diffs are a good improvement. Starting a DT 02 Rough Rider replica over Christmas and wanted to try a thicker grease. Whats best?

Dare I say, I prefer the look of the original Hotshot? Any excuse.

Yes, that's my fear. A middle aged bloke turning up with a rere vintage Tamiya. I do miss the old days of racing on grass/mud/dust. BITD it seemed that every other town had some sort of club!

I see your just up the coast. I'm only newly back to this. Where do you run RC in the NE? I've not been on track since'88 and would love to get a bit of casual track time in!

Absolutely beautiful. Good work!!

Yes they do now. Not ran it properly yet but am confident that it was loose ball diffs. I just had not tightened them up sufficiently.
