For a 64p pinion, it doesn't look that big. Maybe a 35 or something like that.






Anybody notice how the paint chipped off on their model car's bulkheads?

Meaning that the Spur sizes are going to be very limited seeing as how
the spur shown is already almost touching that back plate.
Even if you modded that back plate, with the Diff so close to the motor,
you still couldn't go any bigger.
Any info on the size of that spur or the limit size of the spur?
that looks about right..
if it's anything similar to the BD it should be able to handle up to 64p 112T spur.

So this car is going to share the same suspension and front bumper supports as the Pro4 right?
I was going to get some hop ups for it already so I can build it as soon as this thing hits.
Late July Still?
After running the FK05 for a while now, I took out my Pro4 and laid them side by side and damned if the Pro4 isn't better looking.
And to tell you the truth, I liked running my Pro4 better. I think it actually Handled better.
If this Cyclone is anything like the Pro4 but in belt format...........For Sale: Xray T1FK05, CHEAP!

we all hope that the cyclone will share the same suspension as the pro4. and I'm sure the Cyclone will be equal in performance than the Pro4. I'll follow in your footsteps... for sale: Yokomo BD.

According to Atsushi Hara, the Cyclone is just as fast as the Pro4, but easier to drive at high speeds.

hehehe i think should be well the handling because always belt drive will run smoother than shaft drive. but for power band i think not even all belt drive can compare to shaft drive.

Hmm... maybe this is a reason for me to just get another pro4 than the cyclone, i'm sure hara probably likes the cyclone better though
