The Reedy Race tends to draw fair number of spectators and enthusiasts and because of this there's a "manufacturers midway" diplay area set up for anyone interested in the hobby. At this years Reedy Race about eight or nine rc companies took advantage of the opportunity to show their new products and other wares. Hot Bodies had a nice display there as well. The new MooreSpeed bodies were conspicuous by their absence there as well.
Just an observation.

I got an observation for ya….Leave your propaganda BS off our forum.

Andrew I don't think you get it. Why would Dale be Jealous when he out sells all other companies that make touring bodies? All that Dale is pointing out is that HE seems to be the only one doing any innovation (in the field of touring car bodies) Moore and Moore companies keep making rip offs of his work and give no credit.

His point about Andy Moore is that he's selling bodies that he doesn't run. ROAR rules do not apply at the Reedy race so why not run the body(s) he addvertises as better than Protoform?

I know Dale and you wont find a more class act than him in the R/C community.

Dale is rightfully angry that yet another companty has taken one of his bodies, made a duplicate mold from it and is now selling it as thier own work.

It's just not right when you take a brand x body and it fits perfectly over the same model of a Protoform body. This is not a "Well it should be simlar its the same model of a car" scenario...it an EXACT COPY down to the mold lines and air dams on the sides of the windshield.

Body manufacturers should do thier own molds. Unfortunatly, right now everything on the market is a copy of a Protoform or Ride/Excel body.

Sorry to do this again guys - but i really need to get my hands on some spares.

So these go together:
Hara alu dogbones 61338
Alu rear diff 61332
narrow diff pulley 61050

Hara one-way holder 61323
New edition one-way cups 70713
Narrow one-way pulley 61051
+dogbone of some description...???!??

DO the Hara dogbones work on the front AND the rear? Is it just a case of popping on the pincushions to get them to work with the alu diff. And leaving them off for the front?

Or is there another part number?

Thanks guys...

i dont think it really will.the majority of the flex seems to come further forward on the car.i cant really see it effecting the flex characteristics much at all.
