Looks superb. Im using mine tonight at the RC Arena, but looks a bit different. Pics were posted on the ZXR thread. Any help if your racing it just give me a pm and I can give advice on where to get items if needed. Oh yeah also before I forget on ebay someone is selling a metal version of that wing.

Nice Find! Was it thru Ebay UK? What was Missing? What are you running for speed control? What sized motor? Brushless? Did the body come pre-painted?

Hi Welsh!
I think the Ebay Chap you were referring to is Paragu. He's a Korean Man. Makes gears for the Mid also. I bought some Idler gears for my Mid. We have a couple RC Arena's here in LAS VEGAS! 702rcraceway.com(1 mile from the strip), Hobbytown USA (Pancars), Silverbowl(Closed down)behind UNLV,and Ultimate RC raceway off Cheyanne and Rancho across from Sonic Burger. Im going to try to race tomorrow at the track. They say they have high end clay. I volunteer to turnmarshall.

Good going but the rcarena I race at is in the uk and is carpet with jumps. Video of the last race I did is on oople under clubs rcarena, go to their web and click the video. Im in the last race and am second off with green shell and white wheels. 6.5 in it.

Hey.. I see you like the Skyline.!!! Maybe I should have stayed in Japan???Closest thing to a skyline in US is the R35 here in USA. Looks like you took your time on the lazer paint job. I liked the OEM body, "BUT" it was reportedly the worstbt racers. Racers liked the Mid Special on the Lazer. Nice job with the Build.

Yes.. I think the only thing closest spec to you R-34 here in USA is the R35 Nissan GTR. I saw a r34 in front of Tokyo Tower last year.I am one of the only people that still has My JDM RHD license. The Japanese LOVE American Muscle! In Tachikawa there was Kennys MOPAR hot rod shop with Challengers and Chargers from the 60s and 70s from the South. Here in Vegas I see a new r35 every once in a while. I like JDM better.
