...No worries Sower...Its all good...I have to get a stateside buddy to grab me those pinions...

...Dont worry about your driving...I drive like crap too...It seems that every tree and rock is TRYING to get in the way :D

...not alot of Ofna's here in japan..The market here is still very 'domestic' though we ARE starting to see the odd Traxxas platform in the printed media...But we are still very much a country of KYOSHO, HPI and TAMIYA...

Here's a couple old pictures. These have the old tires, shocks, reciever (now a Spektrum), steering servo, and heat sink. I think you'll get the idea though.

Well, my Lightning 10 is owned by HPI actually. Nice rides imo. And actually the Ofna is made by someone called Hong Nor I think. Don't know if that means there in Japan or not.

Believe it or not, I used to live in Japan. Okinawa. Don't remember it much though - I was 3 years old and it was 1975. :p

...Coolies...Looks nice and compact :D I have no doubt i will go the lipo route at some stage...

...Right now I am putting together a HellFire which is in the truggy section...

...Down at Kadena? We drive around it when we take my school group down...I will hopefully get down there next year for a week...

...Hong Nor isnt Japanese...Chinese? Taiwanese?

...Hong Nor / Ofna sounds like one of those HB / HPI deals ;)

Thanks. It's a little cleaned up since that photo actually.

The Hellfire is a pretty sweet truggy. I think my next conversion will be the Ofna CRT. Well I better get back to work.

Word.
