Great work Scott! Really good to see pictures like this, kinda surprised at how stock the car is. Cant tell if that is a Yokomo motor mount with belt tensioner or a de-anodised after market one (Team Suzuki?), also I'm guessing the front uprights are Team Suzuki?

Hey, thanks for posting.
Would be nice to know a bit more about this particular chassis as some bits don't match with the car actually ran at Yatabe.
BK ran Losi shocks in Japan, some screws don't look quite the same and some ball cups are of a different color.
The chassis must have a nail polish mark, proving it passed tech.

for future reference, you can attach up to 10 pics in one post.

I will ask Brian, he did confirm this was his TQ car, but that it had gone to one other person before I got it. There is whats left of a polish mark up buy the servo saver. And the rear hubs "square wheel mounts" were replace for stock was as the guy before me stripped one of the others. I have a new set that we are going to re-do all 4 of them. The shock have been replaced by the guy before me too. Brian told me he ran the Losi "hard body" shocks. I dont know about the ball cups.. This is exactly how i received the car. If any of you guys were there and have a photo of this car from that race I would love to see them so I can return thiks once great car to it "Race" condition.

I couldn't for the life of me get it...

once you download a picture in that section another section will open up below the first one (and so forth) to download more pix. Once you get them downloaded you can add the files in the order you want them to appear...I think anyway. Its been awhile since I mostly use photobucket.
