Re: yokomo twin-star hybrid
I can tell you been racing for decades with the technical and engineering aspects you put into this one. I'm going to start calling you Dr. ED instead of Mr. ED. You are like a surgeon when it comes to butting together a hybrid.
very inspiring indeed.

Re: yokomo twin-star hybrid
Some more pictures thanks to a guy who goes by 'Arcamax' but didn't respond to my question on whether I could post them here 
By the way: the car went great and became even better with some tuning. But my driving and old bat's and electronics were not up against these guys. I ended up in the last series and ended last among those who didn't give up. Annoying but well, I guess the only way that will eer change is if I get more track time and dthat's not aboutto happen any time soon
One thing I have to say though: evn with the tougher track and higher jumps I managed to plant the same number of rounds ... while the heats were over 5 minutes instead of 6 last time

Neat build!
I like the "out of the box" thinking.
The layout is very cool.
Isn't recycling fun?...and it's good for the environment!
I love the new avatar,
Is that an Ultima?

Re: yokomo twin-star hybrid
I can only take credit for driving the car while the shots were taken; didn't make them myself.
