Its been long sold. Thinking of selling the Baja SS now.

 

I agree, wiring looks good!
The closeup pics indicate an even more excellent painting job than I thought. Well done.

 

nice RCs guys... mine are here... www.flickr.com/nakinja and www.flickr.com/nakioki ...

I have black sti body, silver R34, and white rx7 ... sorry can't post pics atm...

 

Is it that addicting or are the kits/components that expensive?

For electric... lots of money for up-keep?

I need to make sure I know all of this stuff before I get into another expensive hobby... lol.

Andre this stuff is super addicting and SUPER expensive. You can easily drop 1k on a car, you can also drop 4k on a helicopter setup. There are remotes that are 1,000+. Electric sometimes can be more expensive than nitro depending on how fast you want.

 

I spend a fair deal on electric. It is still less expensive than racing a S2000.

 

IIGQ4U... what you call sloppy wiring would be better than anything I've done. I also race, but I'm pretty casual about it so I'll never be one of the top dogs. I can tell from your pics that you're one of those serious guys. Your wiring is all clean and your pit is all organized.

I started racing 1/12 scale because it's simpler and cheaper than TC but really challenging to drive. I just can't justify dropping $500 on a 009 no matter kickass that orange looks (and it does look very kickass).

What motor is that? Also, what battery is that? Everything looks so awesome but I've never seen that stuff, so I'm thinking that you probably mask it to match the car?

I usually go for simple paint jobs mostly because I suck at painting, but also because the detailed jobs look good standing still but I think clean lines look better when it's going around the track.

Here's my 1/12 running 13.5



Here's my Slash basher with a 6.5 (way too much power, it's ridiculous but fun)



My losi CR also running a 13.5

 

Blood Zombie, your paintjobs are nice and clean! I would have replied sooner but I never saw your message.

Anyway, the motor is a Novak Ballistic and the battery is a 2 cell LiPo by IP... Team Epic (Formerly known as Trinity) imports the packs.

You don't need to purchase a $500 car to be competitive in 1/10th. Hotbodies has the Cyclone S which is a very good car on outdoor asphalt tracks with a few minor upgrades. The T2R Pro is also another good car but is a bit more expensive.

Here is my latest car (Looks similar to the previous) and body.

 

here's a few of mine.

 

Here's mine.....yokomo
