Well its definitely a Tyrrell P34 like proffesso said so thats a start. Now just to find the manufacturer. I don't think there were too many gas powered ones so that should narrow it down.

While looking around I saw your post on rcuniverse. :wink: Seems like there was a company called Swiss Flash which I'm guessing produced this model.

Hey Rick,

Those are the delta shocks used on the R&R titan / trintiy reflex 10. The car was called the titan before Jim Dieter joined trinity. I have those on my titan.

Roger

They're definately Delta shocks - Villian, Super Villian....

WOW - didn't realize all those answers were there until AFTER I posted - pictures were loading....
