What other front rims for another buggy will fit this buggy best? I would like to buy a set at my local track if possible.

We always highly recommend the stock PR Wheels as they were designed for the car. However, wheels that fit the Kyosho RB6 have a very similar offset and will work. (Roar Legal)

Installing the wrong wheels onto any given buggy can drastically effect the way the vehicle works and generally reduces the vehicles potential. ; )

Andrew has DE racing or other companies been contacted in hopes they may produce a wheel for the car to make them more easily available for people through Local Hobby shops, even though the ultimate goal is to get the car into shops?

If you're running high bite tracks...silver front and red rears.in lower bite I've had reds on the front and white/gray rears.hope this helps....I'm running mm as well.

If they are serious about carrying the buggy I suggest they carry the following, not for you necessarily, but for anyone that comes along after you. If their budget allows it they can add more, but this is a good start.

arms (like Rick said)
drive pins and shafts
shocks and shock parts
gear diff
turnbuckles
front bumper
toe blocks
carbon fiber parts (shock towers, etc.)
CNC front arm mounts
CNC caster block set
titanium ball studs
CVD driveshaft
composite shock tower set
lower arm mount, brass
rear toe in block, brass
worlds edition shock piston high pack

Thanks for the input, I will pass the list along to the hobby shop. They will need a good starting point for parts. And my parts bin to.

one*eighteen, The new Hobby Pro Stadium Truck will utilize the wider chassis Side Guards. These parts are due to arrive with the Stadiums Truck in late April.

Bellgate: Great description of recommended parts. This is exactly what most Hobby Pro Dealers carry to support local racers. ; )


Stay tuned as we will be announcing new product services very soon provided by Hobby Pro USA!
