AE vintage racing

[Ritz413]

Watching the Team Associated vintage class racing in 2025....this is great stuff. The track is amazing, with real dirt and not much for motor limits.....since it a track where too much motor will really cost you performance wise. As much as I love some of my modern cars, this stuff always has a special excitement for me.

Got a couple doctors appointments this week.....maybe we can find something this time where my shoulder isnt keeping me up to watch this stuff at 3am....

I would love to see a local opportunity to get in on some of this type of racing.

I just skipped through some of the video and stopped on the first sight of stadium truck. That's what I'm talkin about!

I loved racing back then. Western Mass and Ct had a pretty good racing scene.

Watching this stuff reminds me of those days. Would love to put a kyosho raider 2wd back in my collection. Very first real rc I ever had.

I had painted mine with fluorescent orange and black. No stickers. I ran the heck out of that car with its swiper style speed control and nimh battery......still would if anyone has any questions.

This track belongs in my back yard. I know just where to put it too!

THIS is offroad RC racing as it was meant to be!!!

My first was a Tamiya Blackfoot. Modified the heck out of that. Then a fleet of RC10'S.

You remember the hobby store on north main in east longmeadow...had a dirt track in the back?

This is something I would love to see an unchanged re-release on....

This is the truck that inspired my 24th scale Mt build. The big Balloon tires on dry coil spring suspension....the ultimate basher for me ^^^^^^^ It's just a goofy bouncing wheelie machine that could take beating.

Bill's Hobby. Turned a lot of laps there. And spent a lot of money.

Racing Dynamic's in Southwick was a great performance shop. They had a great track at MX338.

My raider , rc10l graphite, my brothers marui big bear, and my dad's rc10 gold pan buggy all came from there in the days before the interwebs

Youtube suggested I watch vintage Tamiya commercials based on my vintage racing interest....they were right. You could sell me a Tamiya or 10 with these same commercials today,lol.

Tamiya's ads always made the RC look so fun! Must have!!!
They may not win every race but they were always FUN!
