Changed some things up, wasn't happy with the steering setup, went with Tamiya DF-02 C-Hubs and steering arms which gave much more area for the dogbones to ride and allowed full steering both ways. Kyosho Scorpion rear axles ride up front with with the 12mm hex adapter....got a super trick set if wh...

Looking good! Those steering components are awesome.

Just a fyi/future reference we do sell trailing arms that use the 10mm flanged bearings… from the Ultima and Mid trailing arm kits.

I first saw an ad for the SG Coyote in January 1986 and thought it looked interesting. I then promptly forgot about it until 1988 when I read about John Schweitzer's modified two speed Coyote in Dirt and Track number four. I was thoroughly impressed and vowed that one day I would own one. Fast forwa...

I've had this car for many years and finally added some electronics and other accessories to finish it off. - Novak 410-M1, NER-3FM & NES-1A - East Coast mod motor - TRC Z-R1 narrow Pro Lite radials & Stealth antenna - RC10L bumper & RC10 antenna mount - M.A.N.E. optional lightening turn...

I could never afford 'em and it wobbled around the track like an elephant looking for a place to die. Second, buy a decent modified motor. The o...

C: Get a battery that doesn't dump after 3 minutes from lugging that heavy P.O.S. around the track; leaving you to be pulled off into the infield while you cry from the driver's stand watching everyone else finish the race. Sorry, that's about all I can remember, but my Therapist is confident that ...

Pretty awesome, I always loved those cars, never saw one run but I am sure it was a sight to see. Keep up the good work!

Got these parts done

From what i gather from speaking to Steve Dunn, fewer than 50 of these Mid conversion kits were sold before they started churning out the official Pro Radiant kits. I have been on the hunt for an original one for aaagggessssss.... so was really chuffed when this one miraculously came my way. The con...

....so much for my custom painted body from Andy, it came back today.....UNPAINTED!....with no explaination... I am a past customer too. Man, that's weird and disappointing. :? It was gonna be bad-ass! Oh well, I'm excited to see what you have up your sleeve. This was the inspiration received_26029...
