Still the proline control tyre...

Running old wheels should be no issue - on the rear you'd need the cone spacer and pin from the SV/SX series and on the front, you'd need the SV/SV2 steering block and axle. I think! I need to do this later, so I'll post back here if there is anything specific that you need to do.

Shit! There's just so much going on with 1:10 OR cars these days! Hard to keep up!

Hi
I have converted my SV2 to the hex system and the front parts taken off were steering hubs, wheel bearings, stub axels plus the four 3mm dome head cap screws.

Just a thought about the KF's versatility on other surfaces.............

Batteries are normally heavier than motors, plus with the extra drive train mechanics, there is a good chance that this car could be as effective as the SV2 on medium-medium low grip surfaces, because the battery and motor are the other way round wouldn't there be more weight on the rear??? Or am I over simplifying it?

[mrspeedy]

Personally I reckon Schumacher have hit the nail on the head with this layout. And like you say, good rear weight bias should help on lower grip tracks ... plus you have a contra rotating gearbox for even better rear traction ... add to that a body that won't frighten young children and a horizontally split gearbox gotta be winner

When will it be thereeeeeeeeee

Looking good! But those shock towers look different? Is there like a plastic protector you CAN mount on top if you wish?

[Kurtje]

Yes idd there some protectors that you can mount and spray in the color you want.

[SHY]

Looks MUCH better without those! Very cool car!

[Juicy74]

Damn that car looks fast just sitting there
