Hey guys.

Having trouble with image uploading, but thought I'd share what I can upload with you.
This started out as a silly clean Dynastorm I used to own, and was able to acquire back.
On this, I decided to have some fun and make a more runner/race savvy chassis.
The car is full carbon Fibrelyte and some of the spec is as follows. The dampers are sleeved units, but I removed the blue and polished them.

DSRCC Super Astute Arms.
Manobet alloy front D5 block.
Orb steering
Orb C hubs
Orb rear pivot blocks.
Tamiya 53793 alloy rear uprights.
Tamiya DT02 70mm CVD shafts
Handmade undermounted 3mm Kydex front kick up ala 211x
Handmade rear motor guard, 2mm Kydex.
Tamiya TR15t transmission casing.

Hoping to get her running soon.

Cheers Mark. Was a lot of fun this one. The front kick was a pain to make, but I wanted a part that would surpass even the Orb part for strength and rigidity.
Its become a bit of a hybrid Dyna/211x.

A snap of the 3mm Kydex front kick plate. This bolts to the lower of the chassis as per the 211x a 2mm Kydex spacer is then added between the D5 block and upper deck.

Now that’s a TRF car mate. Nice one Lee. To be fair though. All your cars from what I remember were prepared very well. I remember doing a run with one of your tamiya buggies (211x maybe) and it was really good. Just keep your thumb on the stick lol.
