I'd love to do that thanks Mark but we are up north a bit, the local tracks are Gladstone and Rocky. Unfortunately both are 1/8th tracks so not greatly suited to the vintage stuff but might be ok for...

If you contact the Kyosho dealer and let them know the issue I would imagine they should send some axles out to keep a customer happy. My thoughts are they should be replacing the dogbones in every...

Your right I'd say most kits have this issue which is all the more reason Kyosho should supply universals in the kit to remedy this issue which I do believe affects the handling for sure. Anyone with...
