Kyosho 1/7 scale nitro

[Bogan Thunder]

this was advertised locally a few days ago and i didn't know it existed so i bought it and it was released 2013 and this one is new and never been started. Kyosho used a lot of nylon for the shock towers and also the shock bodies but it has really nice dampening like if it has some fancy alloy shocks on it. The rear tyres are the only thing not to survive with age being 11 years old as they have cracked apart but it uses 17mm wheel hex and i do have truggy wheels that fit. anyone got one?

do you have the black or white body for it?
i'm guessing it's the only 1/7 nitro baja Kyosho made...i defiantly take it for a rip at the local park one day.

I don't have one. I meant yours is a shelf queen now. No parts support besides, maybe ebay.

I get that. I like running / using my toys. Just be careful with it.

the kyosho .28 in it is new and i probably won't use i'll keep it that way and i got a bunch of other engines to choose from like o.s speed .21 or novarossi but i would rather use a o.s that what kyosho has used and i will replace the plastic pipe on it with a alloy tuned pipe it should go good and it will only get used on grass.
