to police the 2wd mod----2wd siebenelch---- i think will be a tough job in itself----any mods today that use parts that have same dimensions as aftermarkets available in 80s should still be considered era correct for 2wd mod. Any of us that had rc10s butchered a chassis or two in our day :( . almost all the team drivers cut down the sides of their tubs.

Hey Ron,

I think your car is missing the lower chassis plate.... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

That thing looks awesome, I've always liked those wheels. :wink:

If I could only score a nice Kyosho Pro X for 2wd.

Ultima! I would love to see an Ultima out there on the track. Enough with this super late model stuff, Freddy you've got the skills to beat everyone with a Scorpion in 2wd buggy class. 8)

:shock: :shock: My bad, I thought the Kyosho Pro X was older than the XX. Scratch that thought... :lol: :lol:

Ultima Pro would be a nice replacement.... Is the XRT Pro pre 94??

Hey Scott,
Scorpion?? really?? I didn't even have the skills with the XX to reach top five in 2wd.... :lol: :lol:

Now give the Scorpion to Kyle, and he might be able to pull it off... :mrgreen:

I think you could at least qualify for the A main with a Scorpion Freddy. :wink: Seriously though, an Ultima in buggy class would be the shiznit. I just want to see an Ultima on the track really bad. A Pro would be just as cool. Is a Triumph legal? I've got to go digging in my old RCCA's and see what Kyosho had in 94.

I was looking at a Kyosho Pro X manual, and the copyright was 1994.... :wink: would it qualify?? :mrgreen:

Ultima Pro would be my next choice, if I had to go with a Kyosho 2wd... I gotta dig up some pictures on Tamiya club to post on here, so that people have an Idea... :wink:
