Dude props for not playing techno music or any music while you drive the car on the track in your vids.. 👍

Haha...no worries about techno my friend. The sound of the gearbox and tires is my vintage music when they are on track.

What a beautiful video! I really enjoy the quality of your videos, not just the footage, but also the commentary and the knowledge sharing, especially on this buggy! I'm not particularly hyped about this buggy, but still happy I clicked the video, very nice description of it and how it handles, looks like an amazing machine after all! I'm happy it's not just a shelf queen, ha ha!

Thanks so much for the kind words. Doing my best to provide content that is different from the norm, so I appreciate it when someone enjoys what we post. I am not a shelf queen guy for sure. Obviously, with the expense of this one...it would have been "ok" to build and park...but what fun is that...hahaha. Thanks again for the support.

Another great video. I am still surprised at how close the hotshot is to those top cars which were effectively used for racing

It was a good day for the Shot for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if the silvercan makes a little more h.p. as well. Should test that next year 🤔 (pro car silvercan) Appreciate the support!

Sweet run, the buggy looks and runs great and what a big difference just swapping out the stock tires.

Thanks brother. It's a fabulous buggy! Think the kit tires are more suitable for full dirt tracks. Was shedding 10ths on the deck for sure.

What an awesome machine!! I get so nostalgic for cars of this period that were such an influential part of our childhood. Despite being a 36 year old concept that thing flat out performed, clearly demonstrating its racing heritage. Quite remarkable the difference the tires made, and it was quite apparent in the handling/driving technique deployed as you changed up. Love the flow to your track videos fella, it's so hard to film a moving car around a track,the multiple camera angles make it a joy to watch...... the thought of how much work it takes to edit it all together in order though totally fries my brain! 😂 Top stuff matey! 👍 👍
@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC 7 ай бұрын
Thanks so much my friend. It's such a fun buggy overall and absolutely feels "vintage". Having an in box old school sponsor decal sheet was a super nice touch as well. Really appreciate the kind words as well about the video coverage. It's not easy to pull off for sure...but is hopefully what makes us a bit special on the tube. Rock on brother... and thanks again for the support!

100% made more of a difference on the carpet. The balance on the dire was fairly neutral with a very mild understeer. Appreciate it!

It looked good out there and the tires did make a good bit of difference! I kind of wish I had gotten one but for some reason this one did not get me super excited. It worked out, I had the extra money to get the RC10CC when it was announced. Glad you had so much fun with yours, it did well!

Thanks brother! Can't wait to see you build that RC10 clear! I really like this buggy...was a super fun build and drives amazing. Appreciate the support.

Great to see it in action! Too many if these will be shelf-queens. Never understood why you wouldn't run an RC car! (Although I have the clear RC10 on pre-order, so that might test me...)

Haha...agree! Also why I did NOT order the clear 10...haha.
@NoNoRc 7 ай бұрын
Wow what a difference with those pro tires🤯. I was expecting it to be a little faster but that was leaps and bounds over the kit tires.. You could tell you had to change your approach and driving line in the beginning after the tire switch. Great comparison and run 👍
@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC 7 ай бұрын
Haha...got that right my friend. 1st few corners with the good tires was WAY different. From 100% steering lock on the deck to about 40%! Appreciate it very much.
@NoNoRc 7 ай бұрын
@@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC yeah lol. Still it matching the turbo scorpion’s time as the turbo scorpion is much heavier. I wonder how the turbo would do on better tires 🤔
@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC 7 ай бұрын
@NoNoRc The tires that come with the Turbo are very good. That plus the weight is why it's doing so well on the board. My guess would be it's not going to be that much quicker....just because that one came with tires that worked well on my track. Maybe next season we can find out!

Awsome video, its great to see how the tyres improved the turning. Looked great sliding around. I cant wait till we move back outdoors, get the car on tracks it belongs on 😎

Nice driving on this tight track (which of course is difficult for understeering setup). JJ Ultima handles very good (the base is 35+ years old 😮). Your slo-mo are incredible, what kind of rig do you use ? Thanks for sharing and take care 🤝

Thanks so much for the kind words. I am currently switching back and forth between a galaxy s23 and a gopro 11 with the fps cranked. I then slow everything down in the video editor. It's a balance between how slow I can get things before picture quality goes to crap...lol.
@dannywalker6279 7 ай бұрын
Nice video, i got excited when this came up. Definitely think you should have same or similar tires for time trials to get a fair comparison, not sure if you have been doing that or not, but very impressive. I figured it would have with the best if them just by the looks, thanks again. So you think this car is better than a losi jrxpro. Still would love to see a stealth rc10
@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC 7 ай бұрын
Appreciate it! We run the same "pro tires" on all things "pro level" (pretty much everything non plastic). Stealth 10 might happen if we get a break this winter in the weather.
