Not sure if this does or doesn’t help with the pullstart ideas. This one was setup like this when I picked it up a couple years back.
Who do you race for ?
Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.

Not the best photos but here's a pull start engine with non pull mounts. The only negative is that the pullstart hangs down below the chassis. The OS engines have/had big pull starts so something like a Force engine with a smaller pull start wouldn't be nearly as bad.

The header on the other hand would need to be found unless AE brings out a re-re P/S header.

Also, there is no reason you couldn't put spacers under the engine to raise it if the low hanging pullstart is a concern.

Yep. The P/S mounts are "stepped" up to raise the engine, while the non P/S ones are just "flat"...

In fact, there are a few different versions of the non P/S ones ...
...and some of them (seems to be the "early" ones) have an extra "tab" cast onto them, so they physically will not bolt up to an engine with a pull start on it..

I REALLY gotta get un-lazy, and figure out how to put pics on here! :lol:

The kit appears to come with universals…does that mean 3/16 or 1/4 axles?

Love this rere! I'd have to build a Masami style with pink wheel decals and his 89 scheme.

Keep 'em comin AE!

The prototype is better because I built and raced it. :P :wink:

I believe only 30 kits were made and sold. I still have to build mine.

You guys thinking of doing box art or something different? I was never really a fan of that dark red or whatever you call it, so I'd probably at least change that color or maybe something different all together.

I bought an Andy’s painted box art a while ago, now I have a use for it. Just because I suck at painting.
