Well, its been a while waiting... I asked and asked and eventually tracked down the option of Parma direct. Roger there asked me for a part # for the Stinger body. I sent it to him twice and have heard nothing more. I have been working with Team Blue Groove on some other stuff. I will have to pick s...

Lol! Time does fly! I've been in r/c for a lng time now. Its so cool to see and to have experienced Cox motored straght line and string cars progressing thru to a basic Hornet with a twin stick Futaba to racing, nitro buggies and almost full circle (I'm hoping to return to a track too) and bashing w...

Wow! Thanks guys! I don't know what was going on that I couldn't find mr lexan with 1900 items on ebay! I got hits on mr10 lexan and lexan bodies and stinger corvettes... lol! I tried Mr Lexan thru ebay and emailed Mid America Slot. Hopefully I'll get some good answers and have a cool body or 3 soon...

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a Parma Stinger body. I spoke with Jon at Team Blue Groove who suggested I look for Mr Lexan. Mr. Lexan made the body in the picture. I can't seem to find him or this body so I thought I would check in here. He used to mod here according to Jon. Any ideas folks?

Although difficult to tell from a pic, they def look close. Hopefully the store is a reald brick and mortar type store in Vegas. The next time I'm out that way I'll make a stop. I'm not in any rush to run these excepting maybe astro or carpet tracks.

I have 2 of the 'Big Jim' version of the Checkpoint motors. One has a couple runs on it, the other is brand new, never powered. Anyways, those used a very small brush, maybe a 1/4 the size of a 'regular' brush. Dies anyone know where to find them?

Sorry to wake up such an old thread but that was great to see and read! The cars were fun to look at. The paint jobs done back then so carefully and thoughtfully... The 'awesome' paint jobs at the time... Compair to today's painters and :))!!! I still love the old body styles tho. I will never be a ...

Is there enough room for thrust bearings? At least that would help with binding. Love the car! Please keep posting, inquiring B2 owners want to know...
