inch up buy the explanation from proline is :

Improving on the most popular design in touring car racing, this Inch Up Velocity is specially designed for Nitro touring. Improvements include clearance for Mugen, Serpent, and AE 1:10 Nitro steering and hub assemblies, and a strengthened center hub for added support and stiffness

squizzytaylor: i didnt know that, ill have them removed immediately (so many people have mistaken this car for a mugen )

xGSiR: wd40 works well both inside and out. You can also use it on the chassis, just make sure you get the dirt off first then spray, the wd40 can keep dirt from sticking to parts.

NitroJoe: i am not stupid enough to pay $80 just for v1r shocks . They are NEO

Nice car eNiGmA.

A few minor comments. The floating mount is around the wrong way, it should face the other way. Also the front body mounts should be attached to the downward angled part, not the front bumper.

I re-pulled the engine apart and followed the instructions thoroughly when i I put it together. Then went to try it out today... it started, ran for a few seconds... then stalled. Then I re-started it and it did the same thing. Then I went to start it again and the pull starter shits itself ! So I pulled the pullstarter off and put it back on, then I try to start it again... same process of stalling and the pullstarter shitting itself !

I inspected the pullstarter closely and it looks like I'll need a new one of them. To make matters worse... my carby is screwed, there's plastic missing around the low-end needle and it's got cracks in too many places to mention!

Hmmm..... what does that tell you ?

I can help out with a carb, but I lost half my pullstart bits when I dissasembled it for someone on here about 2-3 months ago.

Let me know
