Re: Scr8p's Worlds Rere #5 / Modern Masami Replica - '93 Worlds
Got a little bit done on this last night. Aaron hooked me up with some Yokomo rod end balls for the rear camber links, and the plan was to use rere AE white shock rod ends on them. I tried a black one I had on the ball and it fit pretty snug. But these white ones are simply too loose...... especially if race it at the Vonats one day. So for now I will leave them on, but will have to swap them out for racing. Or put actual white Yoke rod ends on them.

Those yokomo ball ends look ace on the car

Yeah, most likely run the Traxxas wheels on the back. They will give the dot a lot more surface area to stick to. I'll just try to dye the outers red first so the opening for the nut is not white..... see if it takes.

I dropped a pair of Traxxas wheels in about a 1/4" of red dye to see it they would take. They do, so I'm good to go with my plans. Now I'm gonna use them on the rear of my carpet car to check the durability of them.

Great build! Any updates? I’m anxious to see the finished product.

No updates. Held up on parts, and no extra funds to spend on them.

Not much, but I got new JC Racing wings for both Masami modern reps. I also spent some time on MCI's website designing a sticker sheet to complete all 3 of my Masami replicas. Just need to have them made, and get the bodies painted for these 2. A few electronics too.

Almost a 2 year update.
Trying to get this one done for this year's Vonats. Still waiting on some parts, so cutting it close. But Darkside Designs got the body painted for me, and I got it trimmed and stickered when it got back yesterday. That's it for now.

That's an excellent job on the body .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

As usual, beautiful work on the chassis parts You make it look real easy.
The body looks absolutely stunning. Quite a bit going with that design and definitely of my favourites.
