Just found the YS-2F bargain price just need the rears but I might have a couple of leads on those. And yes I'm trying to do a full masami rep but I'm doing it bit by bit when stuff pops up along with other projects.

that's awsome.

apparently most of the info about the 91 Stealth car are Masami...... anyone have other Team drivers' cars photos ??

totally agree, mines going to be based on Cliff Letts one

Hey! That's the one I am doing!..... But I have some inside info!

"Hi Rod,

Sorry for the delay in my reply. For some strange reason, your email ended up in my spam folder.

I will look around ........................ this weekend. I don’t think I have any photos of my 91 Stealth car, but will look through my photo files and see if something is in there.

91 was right in the middle of the ................ era, so I remember my 2wd .............

Thanks,
Cliff "

little bit more than inside info there Rod!

geeeezzzzzzz....

found th-1 hubs. so think i want ot do one also. but based on it as my car. my paint scheme, and my shocxks. lol and want to build as a runner. well one or 2 laps at the track. maybe more.

Does anybody know what the spring rate of those yokomo copper springs are?

there is an old spring rate chart floatin' around on oople, competitionx, or petitrc. you could also try 'Arn0' on petitrc or rctech. he might still have the old spring rate charts.

didn't it fall somewhere between an associated rear gold spring and a blue spring? 2.55~2.75?

There might be something on the pack that I've bought I'll update when they arrive ( in a week or so)

Grrr, my Shapeways order will be delayed by three weeks, bummer, ah well, look forward to getting all my parts in a row, gonna go with a Masami shell, but it'll have some modern twists as this will be raced, brushless/lipo too!

Double grr mine to ( dam 10 push-ups this game of life will be the death of me), got the chassis coming now need a donor 10T and some one skilled enough to paint a Masami replica shell
Yee haa good times

im just happily waiting for Seabass to make mine... i hate to think how many chassis kits the dude is making for us all

ironicly, both my shapeways order shipped the same day (tuesday just been) so ill have them in about a week.

I knew he'd be stacked up with them so I've held off on placing my chassis order. I need to get on it before he gets sick of them and quits making them!

Hey guys, I am super close to shipping a fair amount of chassis mid next week so we are making progress for sure. We have movement on the kits, just taking a bit longer than I hoped. Some of you may get shipping notifications around middle of next week. If you don't get the notification, next week, have no fear your notification will be right around the corner. Thanks for the patience as I am vigorously working to get these things out to you guys.
