The Official "What is it?" Thread

[Lowgear]

Am I right in my assumption that these are Duratrax aluminum rims? I've had them for years and didn't know what they were until seeing what looked like them here.

Also what tires fit well on these rims? Those are a pair of 2.1 Proline Striker IV's on them but they are just a tad too big and fit sloppily.







EDIT: I think I know what the problem is. According to this they're 1.9 rims. Thats why the 2.1 tires are a little loose.

What is this?

Well, to bad this car is broken...

[RedScampi]

Ok, here's one...or two actually. Snagged this BIN this morning - no real idea what either car is. Any help?

[adam lancia]

The buggy looks like something from MRC, the little one I'm not sure of though.

i was watching this and was going to buy it myself it seemed like a good deal i was told mrc and tamiya/tamtech on the smaller one but i really dont know...

[Mr. ED]

I'd say kyosho for the small one. Duratrax evader for the other perhaps, or a chinese half-clone

[JK Racing]

Been watching that one myself Scampi...I think the buggy is the Tamiya, but what I dont know. Little car? no clue.

i have a set in red front and rears they were sold a kyosho ultima rims

[Mr. ED]

The center looks a bit too big for the ultima bearings.
Looks more like a fox or wild-one size, but yeah, you could get 5mm axles from a couple different manufacturers for the ultima: to do just that: mount tamiya front wheels

so i just picked this up on the bay mostly for rc 10 parts but never had a kyosho b4 so what exactly do i have here??? is this a hot trick chassis??? what for???

[klavy69]

The red chassis isn't hot trick but I believe an aftermarket for the frog? Something along the line of red prince or something like that. Had to ask the same of that chassis I got awhile back before this thread appeared

[vintage88]

wow really??? never new they had a hop up chassis for a frog...

[klavy69]

Have been searching for my thread with the answers but its pry gone with the autoprune...its been awhile but will drop a line with some info soon.


found my old thread...there are some links with some cool info about it. I had the same idea when I seen the chassis that it was an rc10 front end and make for a really tight turnin car .
