Yes, I remember al the hours spent and all the tricks you needed to build a smooth tranny. I remember picking up cars at the track and turning the wheels and how much drag they had when built wrong.

Yeah I was into the Rustler for a bit, it's funny how much you can do to the thing, I actually made mine wider than it was long at one point, ran it on 4S to 78mph.

Sticking to 2s on this one, but using a 550 4 pole. Used to race a 1/8 nitro buggy... but that got damn pricey.

Yeah, I have debated long about getting a 1/8 brushless buggy. Almost indestructible and super fast.

Used to be into it along time ago. Still have a YZ10 sitting on the shelf somewhere. Speed control burnt out before I was in college and I've never bothered to replace it.

Yeah man - the Yokomo YZ10 was the shiiit. It was the 4WD version of the RC10 because associated didn't do a 4WD (aside from some conversions that came out)

I still have some parts kicking around too.

yep, what angus said. I ended up getting the car for a steal from a neighbor of mine who didn't want to race 4wd anymore and wanted to go back to 2wd. Her dad practically gave me the car. (or course he always had more money than sense).
