Yep in the original instruction pictures you can see the car was assembled with the 3mm size belt on the rear, must have been fun to turn up to a worlds and realise your car has a serious problem or was it found before they left japan? There was an article in one magazine that said they found the pr...

correct me if i'm wrong but i've never heard of a yz834a as far as i know the first is the 834b the dual rear shock versions came after this one, btw yours looks all there from the pics i saw.

Hi all Well here is my yokomo mx4 that i finished awhile ago but seeing as i only just figured out how to resize all my pics and put them up on here i decided to do so. This is one of the few cars in my collection i actually raced with and kept from back in the day, fond memories indeed. As always p...

Thanks for the nice comments guys bscotti Yes i wouldn't want to have to find another set of those hubs, i got lucky as they were already on the car when i bought it. fakiee i have another of those mounts that i bought a while back they were crazy expensive bitd (90 pound) or something like that i c...

Also finished this the other day its a 97 spec yz10 which would have been used by the yokomo team prior to the 97 worlds, kind of done in Masami colours.

R-No said that he has one of the cars from Basildon, and I wonder why we have never seen any other than masami's??

What are you saying you want to see a few

Did the two speed tranny work well on this car for racing? Most people ditched the 2 speed pretty early on as it worked on centrifugal force (like any 2 speed i quess) so if you were on a slippery track it just spun the wheels up and went straight into second gear and bogged down, i do remember it ...

Charlie don't surf wrote:His has been "upgraded" to the 3mm belt ( or is that downgraded )

Well i quess that depends if you ever raced with the fine pitch or not,
I think Masami was the only one who liked those fine pitch belts......

Peter

Yes nice find indeed, mine came with white ribbed wheels and wing and it was nib, after i found mine i decided to do a bit of research into them and found the only info i could find was from old magazines that friends had over here in Australia. I can tell you they were available only by special ord...

They will all fit into the works 91 but the 91 had the fine pitch belts so you would need one for the 2mm belts which will be very hard to find.

I looked at theese bodies on EBAY and was wondering how the Mr Lexan bodies compare. I got a jrx2 body when team blue groove first started doing them and to be honest it was very ordinary maybe someone can tell us if they've gotten any better, on the other hand Mr Lexans are pretty much perfect. Pe...
