I need about 5 body shells to do up more concept ideas :) I cant wait to see those Day-Glo orange wheels against all that black and if I put the decals on it will tie in nice with the orange pin stripes

On the Super Stealth Fox will be Blue/Silver You-G alloy shocks when they arrive finally :) so it should tie in, still dont know if I will sticker it though.

We have Fuit Loops here Beef :) been called one myself lol. Still going to go with the idea I discussed with you ,the You-G shocks should tie it all in nicely, however I should have bought another 2 repro bodies as there are some interesting variants I want to try like a camo FAV style as well. I do love the boxart Fox but if I have several bodies with bolt ons I can change the look any time I want and it will be even easier when I have my 3rd Fox :)

Thanks Thommo, I want to run it ;) but I wont :( due to the amount of money I have put into it.
Its destined to be a shelf queen only. I ran the GT motor in another one of my Foxes and I am underwhelmed by brushed motors, they seemed heaps faster back in the day :) I have a nice safe brushless combo I run on 2s, i tried 3s but at $50 a throw for a set of gears I decided not to again after fragging a couple of spur gears :( the only brushed motor that really went well was a Reedy 15t I have but it kept over temping the ESC so I gave up and went brushless.

Believe it or not I am not really a fan of the Super Sabre, I know its pretty much the same driveline but the shape does nothing for me

Supershot (super hotshot) runner

Super clean :) I converted my re-re Supershot with a new shell and repro decals just to do the boxart look.
Its funny also cause I converted a vintage Supershot to look like a Hotshot with HP suspension, the exact opposite of what you did :)

The Parma front arms came from Beefmuffin here on TC from an Ebay auction I won. You can dial in camber as well as castor to get the front turning nicely, along with the Parma sway bar tucked in front as and the Thorp stabiliser it turns pretty well. Would love to see pics on the JPS Fox if anyone has any cause bad ol me still smokes JPS ciggies and the JPS racecars were always very striking to look at. The best thing about wheels and tyres Mad Bee is you can change them whenever you want and completely transform the ca :) oh and brushless is awesome except I restrict the throttle to 85% as every now and then a gear or shaft will fail and it cost me $50US for my last gear set :( anyone have any spare cheap gears ??

Nothing quite like seeing the Fox launch nose high in the air with the rear fully compressed and the rear tyres ballooning like a drag car and then see it literally fly past you spinning the tyres :) the fact the I did this with all second hand bits including the gears and its holding up with no probs at all is awesome

I have the Thorp stuff as well its just bloody expensive :( the beauty of my conversion is you can run the original arms with shorter shafts I just didnt have any at the time, but my efforts are too late with the upcoming re-re of the Fox of which I am glad to hear about. Cheap gears and a new drive shaft rear end :) oh and wheels and bodies and arms as well. Just have to wait a couple of months before it releases.

Thanks guys, the wing is indeed a You-G Hotshot wing , I didnt want to redrill the original wing mounts in case I want to mount the original wing again so I used the steering linkage protectors to mount it :) gives it the nice billet look, originally I had pink nuts on the wheels beef :) and to the comment on the best Fox ever seen, I am biased but I do agree and its the result I was after :)
