RC Bashers

I picked this up a while back at a second-hand store & just kept forgetting to get a pic of it to post up.



Anybody here have one back in thier past? I didn't, but it was too cool to pass up. Radio Shack was a lot of folks 1st RC experience, it would seem.

i didnt have one of these. i had some yellow radio shack truck., my brother had a blue one. they were two speed as well.

I never had one but remember seeing those around back in the day.Got any special plans for it? l8r,w.

More I stare at it I think I did have one many moons ago, nice find!

Main goal at this point is to get some rubber for it. I doubt I'll worry much about actually running it, so I may cut & shut some tires if I can find a set that are close to the right size.

I recently picked up a cheapy little RC with a ~1:24 scale Silverado body, at a rummage sale. It had some big (for the body's size) tires on it, & I discovered the tires would fit the rear rims of the White Tiger here. The tires were too wide & too large of a rim diameter for the fronts, but I decided to try my hand at hacking them up & fit them to the front rims anyways. This was a very quick & dirty cut-n-shut. They're definately "display only" quality, as the pics will show. But the White Tiger has rubber on it now, so on to the pics:

those look pretty gnarly.

not bad man. those are definately an upgrade.

front tires look like theyd hurt you. I like it.

Yea- the RC is auditioning for the scale version of Death Race 2000. The front skinnies do look pretty viscious.

DO you happen to still have that White Tiger. I got one when I was a kid. I broke it probably a year after I had it and kept everything. I have moved and lost pieces since then and got it back out the other day only to find that the shell is now broken in two.

You wouldn't by chance want to sell yours would you?

Yep, I still have it. I'll send you a PM.
