Lazer zxr

[Welshy40]

Iso,

Congrats mate, 200 pages and your thread is still going strong.

Ive sent you a CAD drawing, can you read it? If not i will post tonight a jpeg version but hope my design appeals to you as it based on the zx design, otherwise will just copy the zxs pivot plate design.

To celebrate 200 pages I finally managed to dig out a pic of my original Lazer, taken in the 80's! I don't think the 2.2 wheels had been released so this is pre-ZXR. Apologies for the quality but I don't have a scanner so I had to take a pic of the pic with my phone. Awww, nostalgia

I think lazer zxr with losi xx4 and schumacher cat 2000 and 3000 are the best 4wd cars in RC history...
Thanks oople funs for all information given...

[Welshy40]

Id say lazer first, yokomo yz10 second, Losi Xx4 third, xxx4 fourth, schumacher bosscat fifth, tamiya trf511 sixth, schumacher 2000 seventh, then 3000. Thats my opinion anyway.

Nice car, some items look very familiar. Is that an associated or yokomo spur, or one of my designs from RW?

Based of IFMAR results, the Dogfighter is the greatest surely?!

I dunno Crash you are talking about Masami's reign during this period. I think he would have been capable of a World's A Main driving a Tamiya Hornet!

Well maybe a little exaggeration but you get my point ;D

That's a very good point! A special driver indeed. Lol
Shame the ZX-R never got a title tho. Did it make a podium??

It won the BRCA nationals (Jamie Booth), European nationals (Ellis Stafford) and made a couple of Worlds A's (Oops forgotten names) but dont think it made 2nd or 3rd.

Well remembered iso, I was gonna say I remember Rick Howart placing in a Worlds main. I got my Lazer the year after I think, upgraded from a Mid

The spur gear is tamiya 96t and the pads are associated!!!
I just make a bigger hole in the center with lazer to fit exactly the bearing!!
