Very small ideal for a tamtech

These should motivate me to finish the bodies for the BF ranger and the F150 plus some for a little M38 while I'm at it

This turned up today



Ansmann Macnum truggy rolling chassis.
Not vintage, but cheap and almost unused. Should be good for bashing. I've got a Stadium Blitzer shell I can fit on it.

In my quest for a Mk.1 Hotshot, I have to make some compromises...
This time I just had to buy this New Built, unused, Hotshot Mk.2, just because it had Mk.1 front drives hafts
Ok, it will also make an excellent Mk.2 Shelf Queen.

On a side note, this model could disprove the common understanding that only Mk.1 Hotshots came with the Mk.1 front drive shafts.

A big thank you to Ebay seller Vintagecorp , for once again supplying top quality items.

There's no decal on it, but it's stamped "AYK" and "Race Prep". Can't find much info about it anywhere.

It's close, but the image shows the rare version with the ceramic armature. Mine is the version with normal steel armature. And as far as I can gather my version is a bit older than the ceramic version.

Race Prep was the US distributor of AYK in the 90's. Earlier, World R/C Import & Export Inc, was representing AYK in the US. When Race Prep took over, they introduced their own line of hop-up parts for the AYK's, including motors.

They are still in business: www.raceprephobbies.com/

Any ideas about this one?
