Thats Neil's car and it looks like as you say they have put the shock tower onto the rear along with the alloy mount. We could do with some detailed information about these mod's and why certain team drivers do them and others don't.

I'll give it a go buddy.:)

They are trying it to get more weight over the rear apparently, it's nothing to do with Yokomo it's one of Mick's concoctions I think :)

NeilD 21-04-2007 08:28 PM

I've seen one of the cars in the flesh tonight.

Jimbo 22-04-2007 09:34 PM

Hey Neil, did you get ony goss on it?

NeilD 24-04-2007 03:04 PM

Only that it's meant to be better over the ripples, no mention of more rear grip. It was difficult to judge it as it wasn't the best driver piloting it.

Any update on the new car? Pics?

Jonathan 01-05-2007 08:47 PM

Looking good any ideas for the shell design?

Jonathan 02-05-2007 07:27 PM

Yes, the shell :)

I had a strong idea on how I wanted it but to try would have meant investing in the airbrush and paint and then as my first attempt how would it turn out ?

So I have dispatched it to a very popular shell painter to work his magic, I cant wait to see how it turns out ! Watch this space.

NeilD 03-05-2007 01:58 PM

Good to here. I'm still wighting for a response........

NeilD 04-05-2007 06:35 PM

Don't worry mate, Masa usually replies in 24hrs the only time he didn't (it took 48hrs) was because the shop had closed for a week.

WOW!!!!:) I can't believe the savings. Over $80.00 usd!!!!!!
The same order here in the US from a US supplier would have cost over $200.00!!!!!!! I paid $109.50 Shipped!!!!!!:) ;)
I think the Body shell was $12.00 USD instead of $29.99.
Ya gotta love it Mate....
Thanks again for that part #......
Nate
