hi hosap, you dont say where you are , but you could try emailing or phoning modelsport. www.modelsport.co.uk . they are very helpful and knowledgable. alternatively keeping a regular eye on ebay might do you good stead.

hop up parts should be readily available as it was quite a popular chassis . you shoulkdn`t have any probs .

cheers Adz..

cheers adzam and i see your focus is doing well, what car is it? ive seen posted pics and it looks sweet. Ive got a couple of shells, like a astra touring car, tt touring car and porsche race car. Im in Newport, South Wales and i was wondering if there was any racing clubs around.

Cheers,
hosap

hi hosap, the focus is a rex-x 1/8 buggy that i added a thunder tiger focus shell onto.
went quite well, but i`m happier with the m-truck more details of rex can be seen HERE

as for local clubs , well the best way to finds out m8 is to look here at the BRCA website BRCA this site will give loads of info and point you towards your nearest club.There are many many classes of racing so i suggest you have a look and see what kind of clubs are near or what kind of racing you fancy

BRCA is the official r/c car body for organised clubs and events.
any more info required let me know.

Adz..

Hosap....what engine do you have...GM Models can supply you with a tuned pipe for this car...If it is the GX12 OR GX15 should cost you about £7 tops for the whole lot from here or Alans Models...I have yet to buy the same pipe for the Skyline on my post on here......see Automobiles>Pictures>Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R....it is a Kyosho Chassis under that shell with a brand new GX12 engine.

Regards............Mark.

Hosap,

Try www.gmmodels.co.uk or www.alansmodels.com

There are loads of other places too as this is a popular engine, you can even find the parts on e-bay.

Regards......Mark.
