Trinity Slot Machine 2 based motor. So 1993/1994.

Given that maybe a trip to the casino would be a good first date...

The "super" versions of the Reedy TruStock and Mr. Outlaw were an updated motor that had a "short stack" armature.

Very cool build! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

The body you're looking for is a Protoform Nissan P-35 btw...

The car looks like it started out as a JRX-Pro. Long front shocks, H-arms and rear hubs/towers are all JRX-pro. The chassis looks to be an aftermarket one of some kind, def. not a standard Losi chassis.

Also the parts next to the car are from the XX car and wouldn't fit the JRX-pro.

This matches my recollection as well. They had different programming for the 3 default profiles, but the 4th was still open and could be programmed to whatever you wanted using the pit wizard or PC software link. There shouldn't be any hardware differences other than the sticker.

Sorry I don't know what the model is.

Typically the 3 adjustment pots on old school speed controls are for adjusting the Neutral point, Full speed, and brakes. You will have to try adjusting each independently to figure out which does what.

Try reversing the throttle channel on the transmitter. Then adjust the throttle trim and neutral pot to get the car to stop at neutral trigger.

Awesome car! I remember running the YR4 series in the late 90's in NorCal. In the US we were mostly had the YR4-M2 USA which had the top deck shock up front and the sliding battery trays, and later the M2 Pro with the 8 battery slots and wider top deck. The J-car was something everyone wanted but wa...

Just picked up one of these on eBay and even in it's current state it's a joy to look at and hold. This will get the full teardown and rebuild at some point once I gather all the appropriate parts and electronics. Couple of quick questions about the car: -Were there 2 versions of the car with the la...

I've used these before as replacement for the top o-rings:

1/16" for 4-40 flat head and button heads

3/32" for 4-40 socket heads

I like the MIP drivers but any of the quality brands (Hudy, Protek, etc.) will be fine.

If it has the Stealth (3 gear) transmission and the black chassis, but doesn't have the milled slots on the sides, it's probably a Team Car.

Worlds car would have the slots in the chassis, black shock towers, etc.

Though it can get muddier depending on what parts were replaced BITD.

Here is a page which shows what appears to be that car: http://site.petitrc.com/reglages/asso/setups/rc10tc3/TC3_BillyEaston_KongKong2000/ All of the details seem to match like sticker placement, motor labels, etc. From the article the batteries Billy used were Panisonic 3000mah Stock Metal Hydrides...
