RC Bashers

I built this little rocket for indoor foam track racing. The thing was amazing until i began having servo saver problems...the season was over before I got it worked out and now the track and the series have disappeared and gone the way of my beloved local Tri-City Drag-way....


It was originally a RC-18r but I had to convert the stubs to the 18t ones to fit the foams...then it no longer stuffed under the Rally lid, so I went this route instead. I made the bumper myself and it is the cats ....well it very nice and strong as all get out!


anyway, I realize that there is very little interest in these cars/trucks anymore, but I thought Id show it to everyone anyway. Yea the trim is all handpainted and far from perfect....but when it was flying around the track it looked pretty cool!

















-Wolvie

thats a nice mini there! I to got bored with minis and they just were to small to take a beating like my big boys do. Do miss a couple tho.

i still have two of mine. but sold of the rc18 a couple months ago, the tamtechs from tamiya i have left should be collectors items soon. at least to me they will be.

i like the looks of yours though.something about just looks different!

Im guessing the giant bumper and the really crappy paint job and perhaps: the odd sized tires, wider stance, the shorter 18r shocks with 18t mounts, truggy body with attached wing...may all give it a somewhat different look


I gotta say I wish there were a bigger crowd for these, at least if ya didnt want them any more you could sell them off for decent money....perhaps ill check around for ideas and make this into a mini SCT or something? I dunno but I doubt Ill be doing anything, race wise, that requires this set up anymore!

So why not have some fun with a project build...since I can't get any $$ out of it!

is a real wolvie style ride. different yet really really cool. have to run it with ice blue this summer.

I bet it gets way better traction with those 18T wheels/tires. nice mod. I have two 18Rs still and only drive them once in a while but love them.. they handle so well... amazingly fast and agile for such a small rc car.

dam 2 heh have to bring them if you get up here again and go hit up the aprking lot
