A Porsche 934 Black edition, 934 Jägermeister and Vaillant RTR versions. 2 vintage Kyosho Chevy stepside 4x4´s and loads more. And about 20 of these: (Although the other 19 had no packaging). Too bad I am not closer, I could use a couple of those Tamtech radio sets, but I think I have the empty packaging here. Oh well, starting to hoard too much, time to thin things out I think. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well, looking at the Novafox it looks pretty cool so not going to bother with changing it. ????Was that some sort of astronomical error??? I wouldn't mind two new kits to work on, but I have worked on both those, so I think something different is in order 3 hours ago, Supercoolnothing said: A set of tamiya hex adapters, 2.2 front and rear wheels, front and rear foam inserts, a new ko propo receiver and a set of Schumacher mini spike fronts in yellow compound for my bigwig project.

D'oh We have ALL done the same, welcome to that club Today I didn't get my wife's surprise gift which would have made a perfect ending to the rainy dreary day we have had, but at least all the yellow pollen is at bay at the moment and I got my little metal bag with the single screw/bolt needed to make ANOTHER Manta Ray ball diff and after I inspect its contents, I am having a feeling that I will source some more as I think I just scared up a couple more gears that need guts.

firefoxussr 482 Posted March 6, 2017 Postman brought me a new inexpensive 60amp ESC on Friday. See here mounted in 911 fashion. Unfortunately I had a rear-wheel braking lockup.... The car pitched and rolled end-over-end many times. The first time I'd protected the ESC, the second time not so lucky. Not that I'm broken up about it, it was a 22usd ESC.

Supercoolnothing 721 Posted March 7, 2017 Decals for my re-re bigwig so it's got period correct sponsor logos, 2.2 Schumacher mini spikes so I can run it on my local carpet track and some muchmore shock lube. This project is really spiraling out of control cost wise but I don't really care. In non rc related arrivals I also had a packet of Carolina Reaper peppers (officially the world's hottest peppers) arrive. If you guys don't hear from me again it's been nice knowing you all 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1075 282 Posted March 9, 2017 Well, the postman called again today and now my wife is starting to frown at me Number 1035 . Just out of pure interest, how many were ever made? I know most Japanese manufacturers don't use the number 13 when making limited edition runs (No idea about Tamiya though). Subaru does that, for example there were 1000 Impreza P1´s made yet the last car made was 1024/1000. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
