I finally found my unicorn Ground Effects car thanks to Bob Stormer. I built it straight from the kit, then built it into a replica of the Cobra ad car. I'm still searching for the correct Cobra "Pro Series" motor with the green and red label. I only had this one small scan from the magazi...

My OG JRXT has come back to me. A bit worse for wear, but complete. I'll clean it up and maybe make a runner out if it.

Did some more test fitting.
All is looking good at the moment.

That body is really cool, never seen one go that far down in the back before.

That shell looks wildly like the S&K AIRS Pro SE body I have

fixed in post. took me about 30 seconds.

its insane people are just ok with things being whack...

Thats what I thought, even the cab.on both is highly rear biased and the "cover" of the rear tail of the body over the motor.

The Jrx Pro SE was my first hobby grade car and I raced it for two years. Your build is absolutely phenomenal. Your photography skills are awesome as well. Well done sir!

I couldn't get a matching set of grey hard ano shock bodies together, so I'm going with black instead. 20250323_104058.jpg 20250323_185216.jpg Twisters motor installed as a place holder. 20250323_185239.jpg Found a spur gear adapter from my OG car and installed a new Kimbrough (rip) spur gear. 20250...

Turnbuckles finished up.

Wheel mockup. I'm not sold on this combo...

Haven't updated in a while... kinda regretting not going to Hoosier about now. Still running the XX CR regularly, the DPRC T plate has been running flawlessly, really liking the 2.61 tranny in the buggy. Added a BK front tower, battery strap, threaded shocks and that's it so far.

I'll be by tomorrow afternoon if anyone is free. If not, no biggie. I know you're busy racing. I'll shoot you a message Jeff. If anyone is free it'd be cool to say hi. Definitely call me, maybe repeatedly. It's loud in there. Man I wish you guys could come back into the pits, the legends are so kil...

I run the MIP bar on my 21.5 buggy, with the bar on the top of the Losi ball bearing steering arms, and the ball cups upside down to correct the bump steer. The instructions said to run the bellcranks upside down and mount the rack on the bottom, but this made the servo position better imo

It's a race car, it's aways fun to modify and make stuff work that technically isn't "correct".
