Hi everyone, i'm new here but have a collection of old racers i've been reminiscing about recently so here they are dug out.
I'm in the process of cleaning them up again to see how they compare to my newer buggies.
Here's the Firelade 2000 i've tidied up. It's box art'ish, with full carbon chassis, top deck, front/rear shock mounts and brace. Also has purple chrome chassis gates, red alloy option shocks, alloy idler gear, titanium turnbuckles and the visco drive slipper.
Thanks.
Fireblade 2000

Re: Fireblade 2000
Yes, i stuck a 10.5 in and had a thrash around.
It's still a nice handling car, but i now need to find a replacement visco layshaft as mine seems to have a very slight bend

Re: Fireblade 2000
Excellent stuff! That visco-drive is a nice piece of kit. How did it improve the handling?

Re: Fireblade 2000
The viscodrive just seems to smooth everything out, no wheelspin anytime.
It's quite tunable too, by changing the tooth setting on the drive, or altering the oil weight in the viscous coupling itself.
I've got the instructions here and it seems they made different layshafts so you could fit the unit to other brands of cars : Losi XX, RC10 as well as Schumacher's own Cougar 2000 and Cat 2000.
