That's quite the stash Alex, impressive The Daytona is awesome, why havent you restored it yet ??

They appear to be in various states of completeness, I see now that swapping some parts would make a couple good engines out of them.

Glad to see you were able to enjoy it. The Blizzard drove like it was floating on a cloud. :) I had to clear snow for nearly 7 hours with no breaks, and am still really sore. :? Wow...that's a lot; quite a workout! Get a Kyosho Blizzard. It comes with a plow attachment; makes cleanup much easier! :...

I would say water in the fuel combined with a bit of rust.

The sleeve is proving extremely difficult to remove without ruining it, so it is soaking overnight to hopefully free it up. bloody nitro...

Here’s a couple pictures of the sheet that came with my engine. Don’t know if any of it is relative to your engine or not but here you go regardless. Ummm... so you have to turn your head....I don’t know why it spun the image 90° C215AF87-14B4-43D5-9B1E-2A12FF8BD7DB.jpeg A6C8FE35-BE3E-4577-BEC5-87A1...

Upon closer inspection I'd like to replace the nerf bars, the screws and possibly the bumper. Everything else is pretty much like new(or can be after clean-up), outside of tires and rims of course. Are the nerf bars across the line all the same dimensions as far as screw holes go? i really don't wa...

Got the crankcase all cleaned up which came out pretty good, much better then before. Just need to get a new rear bearing and we can start putting it back together again.

Of all the ones I ever had I would love to have the black one that said Paragon Racing in purple and white again. Probably in a bigger size than I had in '91 though. Otherwise I'd look like a busted can of biscuits...

Alex, it's probably best if I don't post photos of my "Coldness Rating System" or CRS as my wife calls it.

Here is where all the violence happens.

All fixed with new fuel tube

I recently had time to refit the 2speed gears and after using the instructions kindly supplied on the last page I now have it working as it should and wow does it work ! Hard to believe it was a brushed motor on 7.2v NiMH ! It was however getting the Trinity Monster Horsepower motor quite warm so I'...

Nerf bars just showed up, they will fit perfectly. Thanks again Todd! And thanks for the heads up on the envelope!

Luckily it's pretty easy to fix, some are a real PITA.

But yeah, every time you hear the spring noise a new curse word is created
