Hotshot 2 restoration

[DevilsDust]

Hi all, new to the site. I've just got my first RC car in over 20 years. I had many during the late 80's and early 90's that I would build and run with my dad. Hotshot 2 was always a favourite of ours so I'm going to strip this back to its bare parts, clean and rebuild in the same colour as our original one (TS59 I believe). This time with a quicker motor and various other hop ups I can get.

Hop ups were never something we thought of doing before.

The current car that is half dismantled:

This is the one that we had in 1987.

Welcome and enjoy

Look at the PS colour range (TS paint won’t stick properly to the lexan body) to find the colour you want 👍

Thanks for that. Good job I haven't looked too far into getting any paint yet, just looked for the colour

The actual colour will be PS 50. Had I have not already had this car in this colour back in the day, sparkling pink would not be my first choice
