wonder dogfighter 1985
Re: wonder dogfighter (im the aussie guy)
Great looking car, stupid question here I always wondered what are they like to drive, they seem strong like a brick do they drive smoothly?

Re: wonder dogfighter (im the aussie guy)
I've driven one for awhile back in the day, they tend to have a lot of body roll do to the single front shock and they bottom out with authority
However, still a joy to drive and pull hard out of the corners like any other 4-wheeler 


Old school racing all the way!

Re: wonder dogfighter (im the aussie guy)
Yeah, I think so too but my scanner is out of order now..If you have access to a scanner, a scan of them would be great.

Sorry.
Just repair when it would be broken.they seem strong like a brick do they drive smoothly?

But needs parts stock.
I guess that is stock Yokomo. The modified Yokomo like Wonder Dog Fighter is much better than stock.they tend to have a lot of body roll do to the single front shock and they bottom out with authority
