Default Yokomo Work 91 YR4 Hybrid

Hi all. Have been renovating my almost unused works 91. I am going to compete in the 4WD regionals this year so wanted to try to make it as durable as possible for my brushless set-up (7.5T LRP X12 motor with LRP Sphere controller + 5300mAh LRP LiPO). So with this in mind I have changed the drive system from the 2mm belt over to the 3mm pitch system from the YR4 touring car together with the chassis (as the belts are shorter). This enables me to slot my lipo stick pack into the huge Parma bodyshell + undertray (with suitable retro paint scheme). I have used the shocks from my Kyosho RB5 with look and work great. I had the first test run last weekend and it handled just like I remember and was certainly not outclassed. Hope you guys like it. I just wish I could find some more wheels or wishbones for it..... at a reasonable price!!! Hope you like the photos.

Awesome!

How much shorter does that chassis make it then?

If you can, take some snaps on a white background so we can make out the suspension as its difficult to take it all in at the moment!

nice work though!
