Yokomo MR4-BC Super Dogfighter

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I have a Yokomo MR4-BC Super Dogfighter (circa 2006) and I'm wondering what to do with it. I bought it originally to race not realising that the clubs near me raced far more 2wd than 4wd. As such it has only had light running and is currently complete and fully operational. I'm now looking for something more suitable to trash about with (with adequate spares availability etc.) and kind of feel it is overkill for this. I can't find much on the web about it since about 2010 and hardly anything on ebay apart from a few minor bits.

As I see it I'll either run it until I break something I can't replace, or sell it on to someone who can make more use of it than I, I'm open to any suggestions?

I had one of those - it ran very well until my cousin crashed it into a curb. After trying unsuccessfully to find spares for it for over a year, I traded its carcass for a used Tamiya, and haven't strayed from the one true path since.

Had I traded it before crashing it, I would probably have been able to get more for it. With hindsight, that is probably what I should have done - traded it for something Tamiya with decent spares availability, and enjoyed running that instead. That would be my advice.

Hi XV Pilot, that's pretty much idea - trade it before it gets trashed, shame about the parts availability. It wasn't great to build (the parts didn't match the instructions) and I had to replace most of the screws with hex bolts but it looks like it would have been a good racer if tuned correctly.
