Porsche RS60
Posted: Sat Feb 06, 2016 1:26 pmA little car that punched out of its weight class, cleaning up its class and then going on to finish 3rd over all at Le Mans.
With retro Mustangs, Cudas and Camero, I wonder why Porsche never revisited this little car and do street version for the Masses. 66 years later the thing still looks cool.
This has an extended HO chassis with 1/43 turned aluminum rims and cast steel wheel inserts. I cast the resin body shell myself and the thing is pretty much scratch built except for the kit bashed chassis. Once i pulled the HO magnets out this motor was hard to control with my 60 Ohm controller. So I dropped in a 40 Ohm resistor ahead of the motor and got it controllable. Already becoming one of my favorites on the track.
