Pro-Line Racing 1966 Ford F-150 Hay Hauler Short Course Truck Body
We don’t just like it, we love it! Lot of respect for the classics. Built for short course trucks, the Pro-Line 1966 Ford F-150 is the same style as the Hay Hauler Class 8 truck that Robby Gordon (and others) raced in the desert in the ’80’s. Like other Pro-Line shells, the 1966 Ford […]

Team Associated SC10.2 Factory Team
The second short course truck I owned was a Team Associated SC10 (the first was a Traxxas Slash). I enjoyed racing this truck because it felt very comfortable to me as a I have raced Associated stadium trucks (and other vehicles from the brand) for years. Not only did I feel at home driving the […]

Team Durango DESC210 Race Ready RTR Review
