Wide track

The wider the better

I've seen that done before to widen the track...it certainly works, but looks like crap with the wheels on inside-out.

I wonder, though, at which point does a car's width increasing too much relative to wheelbase negatively affect handling? There's a sweet spot in there for sure where too much or not enough either way will have a negative effect.

A little update -
Cleaned and on it´s way to be reassembled.

One question, Is it still possible to buy the alloy shockcap for the cohering ae shocks?

The loose tire is just for actual size reference

Thanks

[GJW]

I thinks its Steve Haskins at Penguin.... he's just repro'd a shell for me for a Mardave buggy I have A very helpfull guy but i don't think he does a YZ-10 shell Ken (Cobra) does do one but I must admit, although its very useable (made from nice thick lexan) & would freshen-up any tired Yokomo, the crispness & flatness of the moulding is not on a par with the MrLexan shells, which, I would suggest are nearly/as good as the original items.

P.S; Project looks great BTW - but I would suggest those reversed wheels would play havoc with the handling - look how far the king-pins are from the c.l of the wheels!

[naushad]

Yes it's Steve.you are right.

Mr lexans shells seem to have limited availability...though I'm not sure if he chucks them out at request?
