Do you happen to have the truck chassi and top deck on page 6 and if by chance buggy like masami had as im after a scanned to scale image of those items so i can get the same design made for my B2 which is now fitted with a b4 layshaft and a 6.5.

Also do you have a set up sheet for your zxr for the basildon worlds, i lost my sheet for the warm ups.
I do not have the setup sheet for my ZXR from the worlds, sorry.

For those wondering: I am still pretty heavy into the vintage cars, I just toned it back a bit for now to spend more time with the current buggy race scene as our vintage class died off here in Florida. It started out good, but soon ended up with me racing my RC10 CE gold pan against the current cars by myself. Still qualified and finished top 3 most every time, but it got to be "lonely". So I bought a few of the current cars and have been racing locally and having a great time once again in the RC car racing sport. Now at 50 years old, it feels great to be able to race the younger racers.

I am humbled Rob, not an issue with me regarding my worlds paint scheme. I will try and update more often and as I complete projects.

Fiveonomo, it has been a pleasure.

I was recently sent this picture by Jason Ruona of JConcepts, that his Mom took at the 1991 ROAR Offroad Nationals and think that this may have been the year I was approached by Gene Husting and Mike Reedy for a full sponsorship ride by Associated Electrics and Reedy.
Felt this would be the best place for it.

Hi guys, sorry to resurrect an old thread but I've just started looking into old Kyosho World's cars and stumbled upon this. The pics from the first few pages no longer seem to be visable, any chance of getting them sorted or re-sharing them please

Thanks
Darren
