I decided to revive this section becuase I've been finding myself working on that old Nitro Hawk frame from time to time. The previous RC Car section can be found in the Site Archives. I've since sold the two HPI Racers, but kept the battery operated buggy I rebuilt, and toolkit (with parts), and the Nitro Hawk frame.

This is the tool box with most of the spare parts (spare parts for everything including about 5 extra engines, and 4 sets of tires already glued...) There's a tupperware bowl that I forgot to get out of the closet filled with parts also (mainly for the Nitro Hawk).

Here's the basics of my Nitro Hawk. It's all I have to start with. This vehicle could actually turn into a life long project since I'm in no hurry and kind'a dislike working with nitro engines these days. It'll be fun to work on occasionally though.

The is my "Dirty Dart". A friend at work sold me the Tamiya Falcon chassis for really cheap. I rebuilt it with the parts I had in my kit and bought a new body for it (for a Desert T, whatever that is). I've since bought new tires for the Clodhopper so the Dirty Dart inherited the old ones for road use. I plane on keeping and repainting the original off-road rims and replacing the the original dry rotted tires.
