Jimmy,

Did you ask about what was going on with this RB5? Why the body is too short for the chassis (look at the rear extending past the body even though the front is on fine and the body mounts are on backwards any other pics of this car????

Even when things are in plain sight it can be hard to spot!!!!! :p
No, I never even noticed that, but I do have some RB5 photos so maybe I have one of these cars with what appears to be a longer chassis - well spotted!

So doesnt that make it a Kyosho RB5.1 ??????

A

Could that be the chassis for the Truck?? Just a tough!

it looks like a B4 shell cut down to fit? Dont know.

Hi guys,

I was about to write it when Woody said it all...Actually it's a B4 shell cut up down to fit the RB5 and the wing it's the new one that will fit the new Lazer ZX5 SP. All Kyosho drivers used it at the WC. Only Pavidis M. used a Trident 2 bodyshell.

The car is not a prototype as it's Shin's car, all parts (as part the rear suspension mount) are available at Kyosho. They come from many and different kits like TF5, old Ultime type R, TR15, VONERRR, etc...

Cheers

PS: I did not forget you Mr. Woody ;)

Also for your information,

Shin used during the final a Trident and standard Wing. He tested the B4 shell only during 1 qualifying round with 2 others drivers but came back to normal afterall...

Cheers

Am I that BAD? Joking. I did send you some emails and P.M's but had no replies.

they released the new shocks W5194V and W5195V

what's special about them?

i don t know ... but they look different. you can see them at the worlds report.
several cfk composit parts are available too. shock tower, back plate and a much too expensive axis for proline rims (i run the HB ones. they are cheeper anyway)
i have no idea if there is any must-have. didnt break anything jet.
whats your opinion ?

OLD - NEW
UM508 - UMW505 backplate
UM508 - UMW504 gearcase
511 and 512 - UMW 500 and 501 the new towers

UMW 502 and 502-01 to use proline wheels

a drill in some Asso axles is cheaper :p
