At 32°, its a pretty safe bet that its a 27T outlaw stock.

This one is a little nicer than mine. A little more pricey though.

The Racetech timing jig is the one I have. It would be simple enough to 3D print something similar. Hmm.

I don't know much about Victor Engineering speed controls, but I knew when I saw it that it would be a great collection addition. Back in the day I only saw these in advertisement, never in person.

Another mostly built, never run ReRe. Looks like the PO built it as a shelf queen ........................ for a shelf in his garage. It is covered in garage-grade dust, not just household stuff. :D

Got a kit sent to me from a good friend but I can’t figure out where to put the wheels and tires 🤷‍♂️🧐

Unlike most of my kits, I’m going to build this one.

Nice. Does anyone sell those clear gear covers? All I found have been the translucent white ones like the BOKI unit.

I would be interested in a few myself. Maybe we can do a group purchase, or if there just needs to be a minimum quantity, I can make that purchase and sell off to members at no profit.

Sabula Tech makes clear gear covers. They are a vendor on this site too.

This is one I have as part of a bundle with a Turbo Mirage body.
