I have a YR-F2 SE that I bought off of E-bay and built. It fly's
I like the standard version because it looks like the batteries would be easier to lock down. I make my own packs and they are difficult to lock down.

I have never seen a YR-F2 in a race and have not raced mine yet. I wonder if it would be compettitive with todays cars?
I think MINE would... that thing handles like it's on rails...I LOVE it...

for wheels and tires I never used the OEM ones.... (still have them though)... I've used foams in the past... 30mm nitro rears in front and 26-28mm in the rear... or I used HPI rims 3mm offset in the front and 0mm in the rear (depending on the body)... and regular 26mm rubber tires

here's mine with the "never run" OEM wheels and tires


and with the yokomo aero dish wheels and sorex tires
