Oops... Just pumped to get a new 12th and start racing carpet again. I thought I had a 12RR before but it was actually the original 12R. I still have the original box and invoice from when I bought it from you. Lol

Jason,

It's time to show the pictures, or your car doesn't really exist.


That and I'm really interested in seeing new cars, and seeing innovation in one of the alltime coolest RC catagories. I too had a 12R at one point.

The coolest part is that as of right now, it has a dual threaded body micro oil filled shock, c hub front end. Camber link with pivoting lower arm like in tc. I will need to post pics. If everything goes as planned, this is going to be one sick ride.

From that I assume the car is like the current Yokomo where it wont be ROAR legal for a pan car?

The current Yokomo is ROAR legal. Double wishbone front suspension is not outlawed in ROAR.

But no, it is not like the yokomo. Yokomo is a single shock that the front arms share. This is 2 shocks. 1 per side.
