My Yokomo 834B RPS Style

Post by prp »

Hi,

For this one, I made the rear shock mount, and used Hotshot wheels like Gil Losi
on his car for the Race before the WC 87 in UK,

I was wondering if you could get a pic of the wheel adapter. I have a set of adapters and not sure what they fit... But I'm pretty sure they are for hotshot wheels to adapt to a non hotshot car.

Doesn't look like there are any adapters there, just new holes. There were hotshot wheel adapters for other cars tho

On the tamiya Wheel, the center hole is bigger and 2 new holes for the screw, the rear Wheel is narrow a bit.

I see now how youve mounted the wheels...Does this look like something that would adapt 834 to hotshot wheels?

Yes indeed. Very pretty. I so want to race an 834 against a progress gallop. I think that would be a fantastic match up.

Super nice Pierre...will encourage me to build the several yz834b cars that I have in pieces. It's taken me a long time to get the necessary parts.
