[urq] Radio Shack UrQuattro RC car

[qshipq at aol.com]

 Knowing you guys, I'll need to scribe some VIN numbers in them all first. :)... ? The coolest thing about the IMSA 90 GTO was, just like the real thing, when I brought that to a local indoor slot track, the double geared direct drive motor awd awed the competition and spectators alike.

I'm ready with that too 
  Brandon!? I have 6 band driven 4wd Scaletrix Rally cars, and 3 of the 
  coveted direct gear drive wide racing slick equipped IMSA 90 GTO Scaletrix 
  hotties.

Thank god my ex's attorney thought all these just plain 
  silly!

We did have a small slot car time trial competition  (using Tony Lum's AWD

S1 slot car) at our little GTG in Park City several years back.

 Congrats Sean!

The best part of owning one, is the desire to have another to race...? I

regularly race my 3 against my daughters, and yes, Costco gets low on

batteries by the time you fill up 3 sets!? 2 of mine were NIB, and my

instruction manual shows that the C cell batteries (only) are rechargeable,

identifying Radio Shack 273-1652A (9v) adapter/charger.? Car in OFF

position, full charge is 14hours for N-C batteries.? The AA batteries cannot

be charged in the car using that charge port, use external charger.



Maybe the next Urq gathering we need to explore Radio Shack and Tamiya time

trials.



Cheers

I know there are a handful of owners out there with the Radio Shack radio 

controlled UrQ.







I just got one and its in great condition. ?I have a few questions about

battery 

combinations.









Is anyone using rechargeable batteries? ?In the trunk of the car there is

what 

looks like a plug to recharge the batteries, does anyone have the specs on

the 

charger? ?Maybe I could get a universal charger from Radio Shack and use

some 

modern rechargeable batteries?









Second, do I keep it stock and run the vintage Radio Shack livery? ?Or

repaint 

it to mach my Helios UrQ?? ?;o]









Thanks y'all
