This one is going to be my runner. It'll be my 'Evolution' of the Top Force. Lot's of nice shiny Fiber-Lyte carbon and stuff.

Default Top Force (My) Evolution

Got round to doing a sort of Evolution Top Force. It's a bitza car using the following: -

Fiber-lyte Chassis and Top Deck
Fiber-lyte Shock Towers
Tamiya Turnbuckles
Orb Racing 3D printed J parts
Durango Small Bore Shocks


I made the chassis risers, steering arm supports and wing mounts from 6mm Acetal bar. The Wing wire is also a homemade piano wire copy of an original.
