Hello everyone,

I just recently joined after my 13 year old son who is big into rc things dug up a box containing my old kyosho scorpion buggy that i put away 20 years ago. After finding it he insisted that we getting working. I laughed profusly. Then he proceded to show me all different websites. Wow was I ever suprised that after 30 years people would still be interested in these old cars. It is basically as it was stored some 20 years, differential kit, bearings installed on all 4 wheels and transmission, le mans 360 pt motor. The only parts that need replaced are the two plastic roll bars with have clips broken off. We are now looking forward to following this website. We tried uploading a couple of photos but the file was to big, being cofuser iliterate I couldnt figure how to make them smaller. :)

Thanks Steve and Chad

Welcome to the forum! Would love to see pics of the scorpion. Hope you can get it figured out. I personally usually just email myself the pics. Easiest way on iOS. I'm sure someone else will offer advise as well.
