I did start doing the SWB Mid about ten years ago and I even painted a new shell for it. Maybe I should start with the Lazer, since that is the most complete? Get that done quickly and move on to a Mid? The guy is making a few more of the Mid layshafts, to take the RB6 slipper https://www.facebook.com/groups/IconicRCSales/permalink/2781685002072800/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuggyDad 4475 Posted December 15, 2022 I know it's old but I had to stick a comment on this thread. This car is just the best. Love how much fun it gives you. A balance of a nostalgia that errs on the side of what it does rather than how it looks, combined with just using it and seeing it fly in the context of today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stulec52 50 Posted December 19, 2022 since this topic has been brought back, I thought I'd comment. First, I spied a Mad Dog in those videos, tell Stevie I said hi ! Also. I used to race my Custom Special indoors BITD, on polished wood, or the big games hall in EK I would run front 2 inch wheels all round. The balance and slide was lovely. I think actually Kyosho Kit tires worked as good as anything ! Lastly, I did send you a PM a while ago, not sure you ever saw it Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, it's one of my 'never selling' cars, and although it'll never stay with modern machery around the twisty stuff, it holds its own down the straights! 🙄😁 I still need to spend time setting it up, but (as in another thread), having alot of cars, means I've not had a chance to spend enough time on it. I know modern tyres would help, but um not going 2.2", no not never 😉 On 12/19/2022 at 2:17 AM, stulec52 said: spied a Mad Dog in those videos, tell Stevie I said hi ! You did! And I'll pass on your message. Glad you're eyesight is better than ours 🤓 🤣.

I was running the Schumacher full spike on the polished floor, can't get the kyosho tyres these days, you can get reproduction ones, that look the part, but not sure of the grip.
