Write your reply.

assistant: Hello everyone, kewl topic area. I recently finished building my
Associated RC10T. I also Purchased a Novak Rooster, Futaba 2SR, Duratrax 7
cell, Novak Rhino Peak Charger, and Trinity Midnight Stock. I plan to race
indoors this winter with the help of some foam tires. Has anyone heard of
the Barracuda Direct Drive Conversion for RC10's. If so, does this convert
your off roader to a true direct drive? Is it stock legal? Also, my
Stealth Tranny seems a little gritty, I've rebuilt it making sure to
liberally apply the lube, and made sure it was perfectly assembled. Are
all bushing tranny's this gritty?    Any info greatly apprec.

Write your reply.

assistant: To all the collectors out there:
I have a Pioneer Brown Gas engine, circa 1940's for sale.
It is complete except the gas tank.  It has a SMALL champion Spark Plug, and
the magneto pick up is still behind the hand carved prop.  It has good
compression, suprisingly enough.  No throttle on the little rear mounted
carb, but has a needle valve.
The backplate says:    Pioneer Brown
                       6636 N.10th St
                       Phila.PA
Not for sure on the Size, or any more details other than given above.

       think of them.
       I know there is Modelcad and there is another one but its

What is an affordable entry level boat>? Anyone have any used boats for
sale? Whats is the difference between single, double, triple, and quad
modified motors? Anyone have any digital peak chargers for sale? lastly,
my RC10's rear prolines seem to be angled in extremly. I bought RPM
3degree rear mounts and the problem is still there. This seems like it
would slow the truck down. Am I right>?

assistant: Yes!  No slop, dependable, and rebuildable.
 I have a Competition Electronics Linear Turbocharger for sale.
   $125 - Excellent condition  - it sells mail order for $219-$240
   I'll pay shipping if you prepay, otherwise add shipping + COD charges.
   The rear toe-in helps the truck stay more stable under acceleration.
   It will scrub a little speed, but the results are worth it.  The
   RPM 3 deg mounts have the same amount of toe as the stock mounts.
   Good luck, Barry

 Actually, the Traxxas Nitro Hawk is not just a beginner truck, it is raced,
and is a very got and capable machine...i happen to own one, and with just a
few mods it has become VERY quick..i just added an aluminum flywheel,
bearings, and MIP 360 Stinger pipe and it FLIES..:)  And for the sandmaster,
don't bother, its chassis is plastic and it only has a .10 engine, and there
is no flywheel access so if the pull start breaks yer outa luck, and the

 I have decided to get the RC10GT instead of the Nitro Hawk because I would
 like to assemble it myself, and the Nitro Hawk is only available RTR.  It
 may be a little more expensive but I think it would be worth it.  Thanks for
 the advice.
