Looks great! 8) Very unique. How big is that fuel tank? Looks huge in the pics. I like it with or without the Duratrax head. Tough choice.

Tank is pretty standard, it is from the Panda racers- that's what Roy spec'd out lol. It sits on short standoffs which is likely why it seems big

Yeah the head is a tough one. I looked for one for a while and found one on my scavenger hunt last week. Got it for a good price and now can't bring myself to use it. Doh!

I like MIP products. Just don't like other companies using purple.


I have a purple MIP head on one of my conversions.

I love the sound of a Stinger. Sounds more like a "real" two stroke. But to each his own. :D

This is one cool conversion Jeff and I like the wheels you added to it. I think the duratrax head would like cool but in a natural color. You could try and remove the anodizing from it and polish it up. It's pretty easy to do...

Yes, the filter is the one that came with the early engines like the CZ-2 and CZ-R

Welcome Ken, I'm a long time fan! Lots of us here. Yes, I have a lot of respect for Roy and cherish owning a piece of his "art". He had some crazy ideas

I hope your prepared for the onslaught of questions about the history of Delta :mrgreen:
