An epic collection. Love the Schumachers, you just cant help it can you? Have to say though, that Topforce on BBS foams, looks stealthy!

I have to say, this thread has me all dried up from the uncrollable drooling!!!

I have a question:
Who here has one of the R/C's Holy Grails; The Hirobo Jealously????
From what I read only 300 where ever made, now THAT is a very few fortunate owners!!!

Thanks DanB4.... I run standard 2.2" B3 wheels on the runner RC10 (although I think the rear ones on the car in that particular pic are Proline brand?) The car uses B2/B3 MIP CVDs & different stub axle bearings in order to fit the rear wheels. Since doing the conversion I understand JC racing now sell a 2.2" wheel thats a direct fit onto the original tapered RC10 axles.

@ Lee - you've seen the Kinwald XX before.... I was it running when we did JAE last year... its just wearing a new shell now

P.S; the Xray is cool.... i'd like a Corally C4, even more an original Yokomo YR4 or YRF2!

I did, but I didn't love it..... so it went to be replaced with an Optima, er and an Optima mid swb oh and an Optima mid lwb, then they were lonely so I got an Ultima Pro!
And many other cars that I still haven't taken pictures of or cleaned up yet!
I think the last count was 34 cars James

Wow!!! And you got rid of the car that was all of the mids amalgamated into one work of art. Its a shame you didnt like it as you know it was a brick for me, without it i doubt i would have achieved all that i did in the 90's. Mind you wait till you see it as its got a lot sexier. Tubs being remade for me and when im satisfied its available again for all the lazer fans.

All ive got now (after selling six ZXS evos) is my original proto type ZXS, RC10B2, ZXR and Daves DEX210.

[peetbee]

I know, I know! I will take a picture of my Kyosho collection and post it on here - I've also got a Rocky that's pretty cool
BTW have you got a spare B2 front wishbone that you don't need James? I am one short for my B2 restoration, it has B3 front wishbones at the moment!

Sorry Pete, ive none as when the B2 was released i got one and as you know did a bit of testing with the help of Craig and we found the car worked better with a wider front hence why my car was so agressive in the corners so when the B3 came out i used those wishbones instead as it was the same width as the mods we did.

i suppose you could drill the B3 wishbones to the same width.
