in fact, thinking about it, other than the belt having to run under the chassis it would be a pretty perfect 4WD elecs layout!

I think you would tear the transmission to bits with modern power through an old CAT transmission, not the finest quality components, fine pitch belts and no slipper.

My five best cars ever in no particular order

Schumacher XLS (Worlds winner)
Lazer ZX (Worlds finalist)
Lazer ZXS (Japanese title winner)
Yokomo YZ10 (Worlds winner)
Tomy Intruder (Cracking design)

But for nowadays it has to be

The Tamiya TRF501X
Yokomo MR4BX
Losi XXX4
X Factory X5 conversion
MRC Team Academy SBV2 Pro


jeroen206 - seriously nice top cat, brings back memories.

Hi-torque belts are still available from Schumacher as well. Bormac runs a 5.5 in his BossCat with no ill effects.

So, the BJ4 Worlds Edition:

current IFMAR World Champion
current EFRA European Champion
current and back-to-back ROAR National Champion
current and back-to-back Cactus Classic Champion

It doesn't even make your top five for nowadays?
