Default Pics of your ride(s)

Hello Forumers,

I thought it would be fun if we could all display pics of our car(s). Dont need to be fanciful cars but appreciate if you could just :
1) Make it internet friendly by adjusting the size to max of 640 X 480
2) A short description of the car ,detailing any special add-ons,motors,electronics.

A few pics and what I think of the cars....


This used to be a Tamiya Grasshopper. Solid axle suspension is not great for jumping or for handling. It's for fun, not racing.


Tamiya Porsche 956. Was mine, now is See Liang's.


Kyosho Salute. This still runs great. Heavy and unbreakable so far (19 years).


Hobao Hyper 10. Thick belt. Lousy diffs. This is going to be my 2wd Titiwangsa rempit car.


Losi XXX-T. Very reliable truck. It's a Losi, so it's extremely easy to work on. Not too difficult to drive too.


Yokomo MR4TC Custom. Got it used. Hardly drove it. Nice car but not easy to work on.


Associated TC3. Was my spare car. Easy to keep clean and easy to work on. Needs lots of spares though. It's found a new owner in Kuching now.


Tamiya DF-02. One of my all-time favourites. No slipper clutch but drive-train is insanely durable and almost maintenance free.


Tamiya M-03. Bought it for a laugh but kept it because everybody got one too. The most fun you can have in a small track.

Below is my DF-03, TA-05 and SB V2.

Here are some pics of my DF-03 with hop-ups. Wonder if I'll ever be able to race it.

Default Juggie II

This is my Juggernaut II by Tamiya. It has got upgraded Aluminium steering rods and aluminium shocks. The steering is controlled by a fast Futaba coreless servo while the power comes from 2 Yokomo 23 turn motor(T) <-- T for torque. I also bought the lighting kit for it but i dismantle the ones on the roll bar as the truck likes to roll. ESC is Novak's dually,but i think a reversing ESC is better for a truck. Radio is KO Mars EX 1. This truck is quite tough but twitchy because of the 4 wheel steering. You cant lock the rear steering down unless you do some mods. Suspension is stiff.
