This time a Super Dogfighter Works 92 which has been heavily modified. When I say heavily modified I mean it has a ton of work done on it. To that end I'll copy and paste the seller's description:This is my sale for a Yokomo Dogfighter Works 92 Spec. It was bought brand new by myself from Otley Modelsport in 1992, which is why I m still in possession of the original box, original 1991 instructions which came with the car along with the 1992 upgrade instructions. This car was raced in the BRCA regionals for about 3-4 years by myself, winning many A-finals and enjoying some regional series wins along the way too. A some point in 1994 I think it was, I borrowed a friends new Dogfighter works spec, and copied the chassis, the shock mounts, and the top chassis deck, and the battery hold downs, and had them made in fibreglass. This allowed the car a better weight distribution compared with the old chassis layout. I also modified the wishbone layout, incorporating RPM resin front arms, and the Yokomo Works 94 rear wishbones. It handled extremely well in this guise. The car has also had tungsten carbide diff balls fitted, and Jammin diff halves which were lightened and balanced. The wheels fitted to this car are JC Racing wheels which are rare now. These are fitted to the car using blue hubs and one piece nuts, as per the works cars of later years, used by Drescher and Hirosaker. I believe these are Suzuki items, but I could be wrong. The front hub carriers were replaced with RPM units which adjust the castor angle, making for a more aggressive front end handling. Also all the turnbuckles were replaced with titanium Yokomo units. To aid the handling, I replaced the shock absorbers with what I considered to be the best dampers around at the time, which are Traxxas units. The fronts of which are intermediate units, longer than the original and allowing more adjustment on the handling. The car is obviously fully ball raced, and the standard slipper clutch is present, which tube fair, was tightened up and left alone. The body shell was professionally painted by the father of Stuart Wood. I chose a design from the works drivers of 1994 and he copied it exactly. And because I hardly used the car before quitting, the shell is in great condition. The eagle eyed will notice the shell is from an earlier YZ-10.
There are 'a lot' of parts with this car. I have tried to encompass these in the pictures. There are many different shock mounts as I did like to experiment with different set-ups. The original shock mounts are here too. There are some top chassis decks, one of which is a rare Jammin upgraded unit, and also the original top deck. There are the original Yokomo wheel hubs, which I believe are ultra rare now. There is also the original shockers requiring attention, and a spare diff housing. The original diff housings are also present, original front uprights, original hub carriers, original battery straps, spare set of original drive shafts and also the original body shell which was also custom painted.
So lets have a look at it then:
So far I've just added the black dish wheels as I don't really like the JC spoked wheels. I'm torn between keeping it as it is or returning it back to standard spec. I'd be interested to hear what you all think on that matter.
