Re: Just got this Kyosho Slingshot, advice needed

Specically, I think a Cherokee or some kind of SUV body would look good. Alot of oval type bodies I've seen are just ugly, especially with the wheels sticking out way past the fenders. They just don't look right imo. I wanted a Slingshot when they first came out but never got one. I guess the oval a...

Re: Two NIB 90's Oddballs

I love that ATV but only in electric but I suppose it wouldn't be as realistic as nitro so nitro it is. :lol:

Re: Kyosho re releases

I'd love to see the Ultima (original, Turbo, Pro, or SE) make another run... It'd be great to at least have a reasonably priced aluminum or graphite chassis again. (for random projects and resto's) :D I agree. I'm hoping the Ultima Pro gets re-released. If not, then have a graphite/frp chassis upgr...

Re: My Ultima Pro Regen

I think these are the Japanese versions because of thew aluminum chassis. Mine had a graphite/frp chassis (bought new in the US when it first came out). Nice cars but I prefer the US version. :D Not a big aluminum chassis person (at least not for the Pro). I guess that's why I'm trying to convert my...

Re: When Kyosho RE-REs the Ultima, I Hope...

If they do re-release the Ultima, hopefully they release hop-ups too (especially a graphite chassis). Or better yet, just re-release the Ultima Pro. :D

I have some nifty ideas but if a path has already been forged, why not "stand on the shoulders of giants!" :D
I prefer to keep it original. :P (if woin means building something old with newer parts)

Re: Turbo Ultima restore

Looks good. I'm currently upgrading my Turbo Ultima into an Ultima Pro. All I need is a graphite chassis (and to install the adjustable links). Harder than it sounds.

Looks good. You should upgrade it to Ultima Pro specs (motor guard, stabilizer bars, ball diff, etc).
