The real reason is I've ben racing this touringcar regularly and made a couple updates again today. Tomorrow's another race and I decided to take a picture with the new lid before it gets wrecked.
The shell is from East Coast Bodies, forgot the model name. (It came with the flames pre-printed)

I was bored of the eternal background of our hardwoodfloor or terrace which have decorated toooo many of my pics oer the past year. How do you like the new concept?

cool photo

mr.ed what kind of wheels are on your yoke? are the speed mind wheels?

If you mean the orange ones, I don't remember, the white ones in the night pic are plain tamiya's

i was talking about the orange ones.

I'll see if I can find a speed mind label in my label 'collection'

I saw a picture of the speedmind wheels and noticed they have a speedmind logo embedded inthem.
So rather than going through the labels i checked the wheels and found.. a different logo embedded. Kinda modern design which I think stands for rj.
Any story behind the question?

Erik, nice one you got there ! I have nip parts for it if you need some do not hesitate to pm me.

I also found decals for it and actually put them on the bay: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300251997342&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=020. Simply PM me if you are interested in them, too.

Thanks for the offering but I have plenty standard stock parts plus optional carbon and anodized parts plus the roiginal honda body with accesoires and decals. The only thing it misses is good driver still

To anyone driving or wanting to drive a vintage YR-4: invest in a pair of 3 degrees toe-in rear uprights of the TA-05!
They are a direct fit with 2.5 mm spacer
I got the blue alu ones from 3 racing and o-my, how gentle and smooth it handles now. I used to have all kinds of troubles to keep the car going straight or not spinning out on exiting corners with the 0 degree original hubs. Kinda spoiled the fun for almost a year

Nice looking car.

I'm here from your post on my thread. I see your motor block looks almost identical to mine without the removable motor plate. I was a little unsure of the manufacturer of mine. Thought it was an old GPM part but I could be wrong. Who made yours? My bet is they are from the same manufacturer.

Ill be using the same blue motor mount and front bulkhead on my custom build. Nice to see some fresh material round here.

I got the car second hand with the part already mounted. I think Kose or team suzuki could be the manufacturer. But liquid rc had a gpm one on their site for a long time. No picture though, so I never took the plunge.

Thanks Mr. ED. I've been trying to remember for years where I got it from. I'll definitely check those manufacturers. The search continues.
