The Slingshot decals are for the Slingshot I restored, want a more early 90's/late 80s paint scheme...plus I got a new Dominator body for it and side wing...stay tuned!

I made a visit to my local hobby shop.. a mix of deliberate and random items. Took home all their Losi Ti-nitride shock shafts :lol: If you can guess what the 8x16 bearings are for, you’ll get a thumbs up!

The bearings are for your Coyote or another you're building.

I got a -1/+2 sprocket and chain set for my GSXR, which means I really should be working on that and not reading about RC cars, but here I am.

Another really early eighties car, this time a Kyosho (/Graupner) Rallye sport Alpine A310...
Image

The car is almost complete (missing rear springs) and the bodyshell and tires are in pretty good shape. I'm very happy with it. This is another project to be added to the existing pile of projects... I guess I won't start it that soon :-)
I buy kits to build and ru(i)n them :-)
