Others that I used with very good success back then were Protoform’s Peugeot 908 andtheir Nissan P35, Bolink’s Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo, and the Chevrolet Intrepid and Mazda 792P shells from MRP (Model Racing Products). It’s a shame that all those great molds have been lost to time, apparently.

I know that RJ Speed sells a 200mm version of the 962, but the original 235mm version is conspicuously absent. I wonder if Mr. Jordan stilll has that mold (not to mention the Nissan mold) after all these years.

The 235mm re-released R & S Open Sports CAN-AM on their site looks pretty good. Almost says "'92 Nissan with an open cockpit and milder front ramp..."

Does anyone have a building guide or manual for building and setting IRS axles? Just bought a wide axle for my 235mm conversion but I'm a little confused on what parts I need to add (thrust bearings, cone washers etc), or does it just build up from the pack with no extra parts. Thanks for any help

So with the rise of LMdH and the return of GTP to IMSA,What are the chances Pro10 235mm gets a second chance on the big stage? Would anyone take a chance at making a Porsche 963 or any of the incoming LMH/LMdH.body styles?

The super low rear body work on the new cars would make it tough. Still, might be interesting.

Sadly, I don't think it will ever get back on a big stage. IMHO it'll always stay a class primarily for enthusiasts.

Sorry, my bad... there was a typo... the conversion for the previous X10 is code OPT036

For X10-2022 is OPT061

Hi everyone,

I search a good starting point for my ESC XR10 pro G2 on Fenix 235 with 10.5 Trinity Revtech boosted. i have 30 on the can of the motor, and i search to a good rollout for this motor. This is for outdoor large track 1/8 on-road.
I have 3 rotors, TEP1100, TEP 1118 and TEP 1119.
If anyone knows i would be happy......
Excuse my very bad english.

Christian Chabert from France.

I would have said because we did not have 1s lipo
putting two 1s shorties in T-bar car is really a great configuration...

Does anyone have any sources for the Slapmaster thrust bearing kits. Ashford Hobbies only have the SMT109 in stock, and I can't find anywhere else that stocks them.
