Driving vintage?

[Ritz413]

Not a shelf queen collector, if it's here it gets used. Some less than others, but no car looks cool with flat spots on the tires.
Let's see some pics of vintage, or discontinued models that still get to run like they were meant to.

Early 2000s V1 Losi mini t

Looking it's best mid flight! Shot taken within the last 20 minutes.
Finally found a battery I like for this car. It's a 6 cell Nimh sold for auxiliary power fir a home alarm system. Solder on the right connector and it charges and runs great. 600mah.

A 1/18 scale 600? Still no...

I see these come up on ebay now and then...for reasonable money. Thought about 1 more than once.

It's definitely capable for being an older platform. You can see it in action on my channel.

I don't have any vintage. But if I did I would run 'em!

That mini t handles pretty good for a dry suspension. I expect a lot is due to a wide low stance.
