What cells did you start with?

The rear hubs (orig) that i had on order didnt turn up, so have been refunded. Now waiting on a set from Rubrix Racing. Still need to finalise some electronics (might just put some generic cheapie in for now while I consider and search for something better. Still need body, undertray and wing, and a...

Not a Mid, need an Optima or Turbo Optima, then it can be done with a cage, roll bar, and possibly rear gearcase (Someone may be able to confirm) for the rear wing. Pargu also make wing mounts that attach to the cage

Should see the stack of Yokomo Header Cards I’ve accumulated

I was able to locate NIP parts locally (again) so grabbed them today. T...

Going through my tyres (Tires :P ) looking for any 2.2’s to fit onto Yokomo MX-4 wheels I came across these Trinity branded ones. They needed a bit of rejuvenation and have come up great, just not sure what they are, and what era they are from, any info would be great, cheers https://live.staticfli...

Polished and polished and polished the chassis https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53471552525_e0d8a55341_k.jpg The underside looks great https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53471446759_dee56e9043_k.jpg And my shock towers (BezerkRC) and Spur have arrived. Still waiting on a set of rear uprights and...
