Adam is 100% correct. If you look really really close at the sidewall you can see where it says pro196 holeshot but its barely raised at all

Looks like it would have used some sort of belt to run the rear axle for one.

Yup there's a V groove cut into the pinion and spur for a belt. Suspension mimics a real sprint car's....offset solid front axle on trailing arms with a torsion bar.

It's a very neat build.

I have an unknown chassis. RC10Resto didn't know, lol, so I came here. It has extra holes where the tranny mounts and what look like yellow dotted lines on the chassis?

i think i know what that chassis is for. i have a call in to someone to know for sure. if it is what i think it is, i've only ever seen one car like it, and never figured out who made it.
