Problem is finding other people with deep pockets to race. Same problem I have with my losi dbxl, traxxas udr, hpi baja 5b. All my rc friends say "oh I'd love to have a large scale but to expensive" funny thing is most those guys have like 5-6 or more 1/10 scale rigs.
Damn that’s a cool truck. I remember Rick’s/See’s wheels back in the ‘80s and always thought they were the most incredible looking rims ever. Thanks for this video, I learned a lot.
I haven’t raced off road RC in about 30yrs, I’ve just ordered a 1/5 scale traxxas XRT. I’m so excited that I’m building an off-road track on my property specially for 1/8 scale and larger trucks 👍🏽👍🏽
Really cool stuff. I almost wonder with the rise of popularity in 1/10 scale trucks in the last 10 years that led to a resurgence. Maybe there is a market for it today? An awesome truck!
That looks absolutely amazing but my biggest fear is when that take’s damage you will have to replace the entire roll cage instead of just a section like most rc trucks that are produced now
Whats the valuation on this thing gotta be today $$$? One of the coolest one-off originals ive seen for sure. Wonder how many kg of torque ya got back in '90 for your $400 robot servo. Today you can buy a oversize 1/5 scale 2s lipo powered metal gear servo putting out 60kg's for like $40. Nuts.
Quarter scale has always been the real professional engineering level of RC. The mainstream industry is just for releasing these larger models, but these quarters scale guys have been doing it for a while. The whole time and the reason why people don't get into quarterscales cause it's super ridiculously expensive and hard to store and takes up s*** on a space. And they're really loud and you have no where to run them.
I'm not convinced that truck is 1/4 scale i've got 1/5 scales bigger than that! New era models made 1/4 scale trucks back in the day and they were twice the size of that stadium truck
My childhood in a video. I "think" I remember this in RCCA in the early 90's. What a time for RC!
I'm blown away. Truly. I wish someone would pick this up for production. I can dream.
you can still buy them , they are just like 8,000$ lol
Great to see y’all still doing videos and keeping the quarter scale history alive,!!!
This truck is too cool. Awesome video
Thanks for the kind comment!
Wow! I remember seeing that! I remember the New Era article! And I remember wanting to buy one too!
Im not sure why they havent been mass producing 1/4 scale in all versions yet.. . That truck is so cool. Id buy it over a losi

well, $6000 USD in 1990 is about $14,000 today. That could be a reason.
Imagine a 1/4 Buggy with 8s
Well… many are bleeding from a thousand economic wounds, and are not able to redirect THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS towards a toy…
@@nigel900 lets just say its nice and drive away in our 2008 honda pilot

That makes sense! See's wheels were/still are badass. Looks like he does other things very well too.
What a work of art, I want to see it in action 😁
Very cool truck and history!
Great clip and history , I'm a drag racer but a large scale stadium truck is on my wish list . Beautiful detail and build quality .
Absolute work of art

You will definitely enjoy your property more then ever with an rc track lol 🤙
Recently used your website to identify a NOS New Era chassis I found 👍 great history of the hobby there as well 🙌👍

Really cool stuff. I almost wonder with the rise of popularity in 1/10 scale trucks in the last 10 years that led to a resurgence. Maybe there is a market for it today? An awesome truck!
Possible, plus cheaper to build now!

That’s as much as a real car in the 80s
seria demasiado chevere verlo andar
Please do a video on the front engine dragster you can see in the intro
Wish to see the running footage
That looks absolutely amazing but my biggest fear is when that take’s damage you will have to replace the entire roll cage instead of just a section like most rc trucks that are produced now
Ahead of the times, if he did this today he would be way more successful.
what ever happened to the quarter scale gravedigger with the conley 609
Not sure, but was pretty rad looking
Jeeeeeeesh I would sell my collection for that!

We should have added that info to the video! They put out 400KG.
Amazing!!!!! @@quarterscalelegends
でけえ！
Wow crazy bucks but if I had the cash to burn… Just need an Ivan Stewart video game in the man cave for that 80s feel.

Oh my goodness.!!
That thing is freaking AWESOME.!!
What's with the "kind of" aftef her name though.?
Subbed & liked & best wishes from Scotland 🏴 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️ 👍 👍 👍
She got married and now has a different last name.
Would like to have that truck I would put it in a show case and never drive it
I didn't know it was possible to cram so many transition effects into one video lol
Anything is possible if you put your mind to it!
😀
Can I still buy one for $399?
I'm in love😍
Introduce it to the public again please
$6k? No thanks... I'll take my Rovan 1/5 scale buggy and dance around this thing all day long for 10% the cost
This scale is not for everyone!
What's the deal with your name you don't know or you don't 🤔
She has married and now has a different last name.
Those two V8s setting there... just to lift the body and reveal that single cylinder of blasphemy 🤦♂️🙇♂️🙍♂️
One is actually a v12
Wow... just looked at that. Runners, or models?
I'm not convinced that truck is 1/4 scale i've got 1/5 scales bigger than that! New era models made 1/4 scale trucks back in the day and they were twice the size of that stadium truck
This is exactly the same size as a new era or qrs stadium truck. They all used the same body as well from QRS.
@@quarterscalelegendswhatever you say! Like i said i've got 1/5scales that are bigger than that truck
Looks a little heavy for a single cylinder. a TAYLOR 70cc Twin swap should do the trick
Ignorance is bliss
So this woman isnt even sure she is telling us the truth about her name...but we should believe her???
She is now married. Everyone knows her as Alyssa Casey.
This chick's weird
Why "kind of"?
Cool truck though. I'd love to see it sitting next to something like an X-maxx for size comparison.
She has married and changed her last name.
😮...
