the IFMAR Worlds in Japan

Post by JK Racing »

Just thought I would start a thread about it...the prototypes will be collectors cars in the coming years....and to start off, look what J Concepts is putting out for 1/10th scale...spoked wheels.

Love it!

Yes, they are for 2wd.

If you want to keep up with what's happening at the worlds (and all the new stuff!) have a look at the worlds coverage at Oople http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/worldchampionships-2007/
The website is a bit unstable at the moment as the hosting company 'upgraded' the software the day before Jimmy went to Japan so most of the site is broken until they get it sorted for him.

and JC's is gonna make the tires too...the rears appear to be theres already.

I cant wait, I am SOOOOOO tired of dish wheels. I still run with Losi Spokes on my 4wd, I have quite a few sets, and I reuse them until they break..

I REALLY dislike 5 spoke wheels, just me, but I like those multi-spokes.

So did I read right that our own kenooze/Cedric is competing? Or is he just a spectator? Guess we have to ask him when he gets back.

Jimmy from oOple took a picture of him with a home-made rain coat! I really think he is racing there. The French RC association is very generous he told me. If the same was true here in Belgium... :evil:
