Ok, I got this Ascot from Mike (Thanks Mike), I have a few questions...

#1 Can a AE 6163 sprinter body be cut to work on this car (I have one), Any examples or should i just look out for a ascot body (Im guessing they made a body of there own)

#2 Anybody have an example of how to install a AE 6188 sprinter wing on this car (I have one)? Or did Ascot make a wing also lol.

Litesink Motor Plate
MIP transmission
Rear Andy's Arms
Andy's Short Sprint Arms
Losi Steering
Tecnacraft Turnbuckles w/rpm ends
Duratrax Wheels and Tires
Polish Nose Plate with No major dings after polished
JG Sprint Bumper
Jammin Jay Battery Brace






I have this body but it has headers built into it, wondering if anybody has used this body on an ascot (Examples)


This is the wing kit i was going to mount, lets just say the instructions are a little bland lol, it has long wing tubes and wing wire and some other ods and ends lol

The wing is made for a different mounting system using wing wire and wing tubes, but you can make it work with a home made mount.

The McCalister sprint bodies will work much better, and are designed with a seperate front panel and rear tail cone-

Thanks Reg, Would a custom works spring body fit also?

Ok so i was playing with some aluminum and this is what i have mocked up, what do ya think lol, I know this would not work for a runner
(heavy as hell, 1/16" thick ally lol) but after final polish it would kinda match.

Same dimensions as the AE wing

That wing looks good!! The standard wing was a bit smaller for the side boards. The CW bodies have specifically moulded side panels to fit the CW cage so I don't think that they will work- Gary's shells are cheap, and should fit inside that chassis-

Thanks, Ill get a McAllister body sometime to finish it up. I used to hate the big side boards, but for some reason i like this setup lol, Great for advertising lol

Your rolling chassis and wing look amazing! Can't wait to see it finished!

that is really nice man, loving ya build. got to get a sprinter one day

That looks like a piece of art, not a rc car...nice...
