Cool dude, is it the tamiya hopup shock, how much did you paid for it, i wanted to replace my too?

Few more thing to change, the bearing, shock and thinking to go for a better motor too.

too bad not many people will enjoy this classic.

I can't remeber how much i paid for it, but now stargek having 20% off. So should be affordable. I have changed to bearing once i got the kit. Currently, i'm putting a 11 turn motor on lunchbox, seem to handle well during my bashing.

Wow, this is what we call classic dude. I noticed that your shock is red in color, is it from tamiya?

You still brash with it, where??

I bought mine from winnie. $20+. I dunno to what extent u can bash with the lunch box. If u want to keep it a classic, best to take care of it.

For me i have try the tamiya 11turn motor on my Lunchbox, it's very fast and abit uncontrollable. Now still trying to get solve the suspension issue, which cause my Lunchbox to bounce when turning.
