I have finally got round to taking pics of some more cars. I must say this coyote is an impressive design. Its so simple, and with some refinement, could be really great. It really erks me that nobody has made a great effort to campaign a shafty 4wd buggy. I still think shaft drive ala tbo1, tbevo, sg coyote design is the best way to transmit power to the front end. If you have never seen one of these, you must look at the pics. This comes from the same time as mugen bulldog, rcl incedent, kyo progress. Coyote is stunning in its artistic beauty combined with logical simplicity.

the RCL Incident is indeed a very fine and well engineered car, but it is also extreamly rare to find these days, I too am seeking one out without much success I'm sorry to say, the only place I have seen them for sale is on Yahoo Auctions Japan where they seem to turn up periodically and usually MIB, however buying stuff off Ebay Japan is virtually impossible for anyone who lives outside of Japan as they only seem not want to ship internationally and they are are a bit funny with their payments like the germans in that they will only accept local curreny or payment forms that are difficult for outsiders to arrange (no Bidpay or paypal here)

there are one or two TC members who are lucky enough to own Incidents and BARRYPOPS actually has one in his showroom.

I checked my old Team Associated RC10 packing box (with 6061 chassis) and old Kyosho Ultima (made between 86-87) packing box and supposed to search around any old parts still useable. Jesus! I found some RCL Incident parts such as one spare gear box, 2 sets of differential (but no center differential), a used chassis which I think strip down back to 88 or 89 and the shaft. I really total forgot I have those parts because it's been a long period of time.

I must look for the centre diff, some other gears which use in the gear box and the suspension arms according to reassemble the whole Incident back to live. Since the Incident use the same gear box for front and rear, and I only have one on hand. After talking to my friend he is making molded plastic for living, he said that it will be a very simple task to make a molded for a gear box like that and other plastic parts eg. bumper.

However, I have few questions would like to ask. The RCL have made a car called RCL Incident 4WDS PRO that is a improve version of original Incident. What are the main differences between the original Incident (the one I used to own) and the Incident 4WDS PRO. Are they using the same gear box, same gear design and suspension?

Do you think it is a good idea to have the extra gear and suspension arms (if I can find one) made by Delrin?[?]

Thanks!
