What's the difference between the cat and the procat

Hi I've just added a XX to my collection mainly of shumachers. couldn't say no at the price it was offered, got a full roller with hydrodrive, another complete rear end with hydro, chassie and some of the front end and a good stash of spares. what i have got is 8 packets of A-3077 xx retrofit trans ...

Just got myself one of these from ebay, it's good but the battery straps are missing, has anyone got any pics of the ones that came with the fab parts

Thanks

I've got em at last, fireblade evo, in good nick, cougar2000, got some wierd thick plastic undertray on it, other than that not too bad, and a procat, which is just missing one rear wishbone pin, and the rubber bands for the crash back, tons of spares for the procat, front and rear trans with diffs....

yer i would be great to get the chance to get a few different cars in a wind tunnel, seeing the pred would be interesting, and comparing cab forward to standard shells too. Also i've added some mudguards/wings to the front and rear wishbones on the cat sx3 https://plus.google.com/photos/111203241133...

most of mine are empty, without seals fitted, but then they were either leaking or needed a rebuild for whatever reason, so i didn't see the point in putting in new seals, there mainly the same as current cars are using so there's no worry about supply for me, the cars that i might want to run are f...

won this on monday ebay item no. 130756451347

i know there's a fireblade, and i'm fairly sure it's a cougar 2000 but what's the last one?

i don't think it's moot, the whole idea of the extream cab at the front, and the windscreen angle is to give downforce over the front of the car, what really will be ugly is when the "cabs" become the full width of the body to maximise the downforce they can generate

won a fireblade, cougar 2000 and pro/boss cat last night too, don't think there's room for em all

updated again, sst 2000, sst98 and mission added, and a pic of where i keep em all, after the sst99 with the rs200 shell they get hard to see but there's the mission, mardave v12 the pred bj4 maxxum ff and tamiay f201

I've added more pics to the same link, that's all my 4wd buggys in there now, the cats are a bit more put together too, going to make a start on the 2wd collection, and the touring cars if i get chance later today

I'm running the proline bulldogs on my sv2 and sx3, please don't ban me! there ugly as sin, but they do seem to help with front end grip at speed

Anyone else using Viper speed controls or motors, I've got 2 vtx10R and one vtx10R black, and i think there great, but there's not much support for them setup wise yet. The Pro Gauge setting tool is dead easy to use though. I did try a 7.5 from them too but wasn't that impressed with the motor.

I've seens the ones from racing-cars but i think they are to fit laydown shock cars, as there the same part number as the cat98 one on there. i see what you mean about the repro not looking quite right around the rear shock tower area, but that's got to be better than the hacked up thing i've got, a...
