Haven't tried them on the BD7, so idk if they'll fit, but have on previous cars and they were fine. They're pretty much a black panaracer spur.

I am building my car and still deciding on electronics. I am thinking about getting Orion R10.1 ESC with LRP Vector X20 Modified Engine. Should I keep same brand logic or keep these for my order? Any suggestions ?

Great idea, haven't even thought about that to be honest, but I might just ask them to do that for me on the upcoming ETS Pilotrace at the Hockenheimring.

BTW, the build was an absolute Dream(except for having to sand the suspesion parts slightly here and there to make them all nice and free).

David

I've been out of TC for at least 5 years.
As I'm on a budget I'm interested in the BD7 version RS to get back into it (for a carpet track mostly and rubber tires)

I can't find any review of the car, did any one tried it, is it durable ?
I would use a 10.5 motor (local spec class)

Thanks for the help.

Gilles.

Cool
Anyone pick up on this little tidbit posted at Live RC....

AMain.com announces that it will now be the exclusive distributor of Yokomo’s popular on and off-road racing products in North America. Yokomo has long been a manufacturer of quality, race-proven products and the brand’s popularity has seen a significant resurgence in the US. Wanting to further promote the brand and overall support for racers, shops stateside can now order Yokomo products directly through Swift Distributing.

That would be cool, if they actually contacted you back, and did what they're supposed do.
