YOUR A CRAZY CLEANR MAN.. What did you polish them parts with, seriously looks better than a NIB one. LOOKS SICK

Thanks! I have a silicone oil that I use and it works better that armor all type products. I just use a sponge to apply. Plus I scored a carbon tray on Ebay and it just came in yesterday as well as my servos from Great Hobbies.

what model can you get 4wd with, the buggy for sure looked 4wd in the video. Also the new machine looks great, can you drive both at the same time if not I would be more than happy to assist you. lol

LOOKIN GOOD

4wd kits are from MCD (Turkish - chain driven)and Kamitro (German - shaft driven). Sell for about $$1700-2000 US!! Not cheap and only 1 person I know distributes them in the US.

You are right! That was my car! It's still on it way to Winnipeg and the guy might now keep it. He's also into nitro and helis.

imported_SELWA · 03-03-2006, 09:28 PM

I started the Leopard for a bit today. Prime, switch the choke, 2 pulls, switch the choke again and 1-2 more pulls and it starts!! Ran it up and down the street and across my front lawn. Let it idle for a while as well. Rear brakes work pretty good with the Hitec 5645 but looks like I'll stil place the front brakes on as well for that extra stopping power. I didn't want to chance too much sine the battery pack was an old one and I'll be getting a few from Frenchy tomorrow to re-solder.

Wow, that was three years worth of dirt you cleaned off that thing.

After talking to you tonight I realized I've never changed the spark plug on that car. So the only parts I've had to replace in the three years I had it were a new carb fitting ( don't ever land a 20 ft jump upside down, even if it is on dirt

), the air filter and the front brakes. Nothing else. Talk about durable...

Although the tires could some work...
