Fabs, What's the likelyhood of getting my car this week? I have a regional this weekend and will have to re-build my car if i haven't got it.

Hi Guys

Picked my Mid Custom Special up at the oOple Invernational finished putting it all together great work Fabs Heres afew pics









On the shell i have not cut to the lines around the bottom i have cut as low as possible so it sits higher and it gives abit more clearance for the spur gear

Afew stickers and it's ready to go first outing this weekend at Bury Regional

Paul

Fabs, pm send

about that Race at Suzy-en-Brie: Fans told it is a huge event, from friday till sunday ... but someone else said that i could participate on sunday.

What will be there on friday and saturday then? Other categories then 2WD perhaps?

Fabs, don't ship my kit. It gives me an extra reason to come over
Will be a 3 hour trip though. ... on the highway (which is boring for a motorbiker )

Hey Lowie,

Dont get confused.

The masters is a huge international event for 1/8th Nitro buggies truggies and EP 1/8th.

Fabs is attending a 1/10th race at a different track.

Yep Neil is spot on, I'm racing at a regional on a small astro track on sunday, and practicing on saturday. It would be a good shake up for you on the car for sure, but it has nothing to do with the Kyosho Masters, which I have no interest in

Paul,

What's with the spur gear - looks like you've fitted a larger one? Does the Zen shell fit OK with the standard RB5 spur?

Cheers,

Ian

Hi

The spur gear is an RW Racing 78t for the associated b4 thats what i've been using on my standard rb5 it is a direct fit no modifing just need associated slipper pads and it's cheaper than getting kyosho spur and slipper pads

The shell fits ok theres is abit of a gap like what you get on the standard rb5 shell and chassis and like i said i've cut mine below the cut line just to give abit more clearance

Paul

I contacted Gayo about the race allready ...
Problem is it is not sure if I can compeed in a French race, as I do not have a French licence.
I do have an official Belgian (Rookie) Licence though, with which I drive in the Dutch-Belgian Nationals.
We'll see.

AFAIK Fabs was only able to send the kits this week.
He was in the Uk for the oOple-race and to pick up the parts, then returned to France .... and has to work, and thus does not find it easy to find a moment free to go to a post-office (as post-office-houres = work-houres).

I don't think you 'll have that kit within the next two days.
I will ... because i'll be picking it up myself, somewhere in France

@ SimonW and MAttB:

I understand you want your cars now, bear with me they'll all be in the post monday morning. It's been crazy in the UK and I couldn't get the cars shipped when I was there for the very good reason that when I went to pick the cars up, I realised the T-Plates only had 2 holes countersink instead of all of them. So I countersank 5 myself in order to be able to run 2 cars at the oOple race and to give their cars to the people who'd be there, but then the 25 others I had to pick them up saturday evening.

Then I drove back to Paris and it's been nuts here I've not even had time to buy some food to put in the fridge! Things will settle now and I'm on a late shift monday, so will ship in the morning.

FYI your money's still on my paypal not had a second to do owt with it...

@ Trioxer : looks good ! I've put my setup from the oOple race down and will have it put online hopefully during the week.

@ PositivoNegativo : I'm not sure what you're talking about ? The MCS comes with a c/f rear shock tower and rear suspension holders which are specific to the car, not Kyosho parts.
