Fingers crossed that the clutch and other core parts are backwards compatible. Wouldn't mind putting my unused yokomo slipper back in a bag.

This replica is basically just a glorified re-re. The parts which differentiate the prototype cars from Romsey ‘87 and the later production version have not been replicated. Therefore, it isn’t what I would call a replica at all. Rear wing set up, rear hinge pin support, gearbox lube hole etc…. if ...

Didn't realize there existed this type of RC racing. I know I would totally be the person to trip over all the course barriers.

Looks like the Optima Mid Rere has gear diffs and dogbones while the Worlds Optima has ball diffs, universals, and a bunch of Optima option parts

I´m searching for a long king pin for one of my projects and have seen the one for the TLR22 cars. Part # TLR234098 If someone have such car, could you please check the dimensions of those king pins? I´m interested in the length of the plain shaft including the thread, the overall length and the ov...

I don't think I've made any component changes to the car since last posting, but I've run it a few times and eventually decided to do a rough setup for running at the upcoming burn. Doubt I'll have time to run it or anyone to run with, but that's neither here nor there. Anyway, I set the rear ride h...

I had tried a Kimbrough and the existing bearing holes didn't align with the screw holes. I ordered a random HPI spur gear, recently, as a hail mary, so we'll see. One of those instances I wish people posted part dimensions.

Sorry that you lost your friend. It is always tough, but after 15 years it had to be especially sad.

Thank you.

Yeah, he came to live with me not long after I bought my house and as a kitten, so the house doesn't "feel right", right now.

Did kyosho make this gear in a size less than 100 teeth?

The side brace on the ZX-R Mk2 limits how far you can move the motor and so I can't get enough pinion in it.

My cat fell ill, recently, and I had to put him down just a couple weeks shy of his 15th birthday. During the week we were waiting for test results I stayed home and took a lot of pictures. I snapped this one of him starting his daytime snooze out back and have it as my lock screen on my phone. Late...

Anyone know what that is in the centre of the chassis that the speedi feeds are soldered to. Never seen that before Best view is in the 7th pic The black lead? Some racers used to forgo connectors and just solder the leads directly to the battery, like many did/do to the motor. You can see the posi...

Those two screws at the front of the Upper Deck on Akira's Optima are interesting. The Rerelease kit has an M4 flathead hex screw with tapered washer, there. And maybe Akira's looks more substantial because I'm used to seeing a hex head instead of a slotted head.

I don't suppose this or the aluminum brace fit the lazer. Do they?

If it's of interest to anyone, kyosho has the parts list, exploded view, and manual up on the support section of their website : http://kyosho.com/eng/support/instructionmanual/legendary/legendary_index.html I searched a few part numbers I think might be specific to this kit, but those don't appear ...
