Probably B3 if the front bearings are 3/8" and 2.2". They have 6 spokes, b2 wheels were a bit smaller and had 8 spokes. At least from what I have been able to tell.

The center of the rear wheel looks like Duratrax to me. Although, proline had similar ones. But they look really shiny...... like duratrax.

Thanks guys - for sure not AE rims. I'm thinking Duratrax indeed. because they look like they would shatter just by looking at them :lol:

Dave,

Kyosho Super Sports. That little torsion bar thingy at the rear gives it away. Look here: https://www.tamiyaclub.com/trades_model.asp?cid=81083

Without all the parts and an original body, not worth much at all. I sold a beat up roller with no body for about $20 - $25 once.

Motor appears to be a Demon Power of some wind... UK-made.

Dyed parts can only be dyed darker :wink:
