Last week I picked up a couple of new/old cars. The first is a Kyosho Pro XRT stadium truck. Other than being a little dirty, it's actually in great shape! Both the body and chassis are quite damage-free.
Even the underside of the truck looks great! The rear tires are pretty cool. They say "Team Losi A-7690" on the side. They probably have pretty decent traction on pavement... the rubber is quite soft. Also, if you take a close look at the back wheels, you can see some plastic covers over them. I assume these were to keep dirt from building up on the wheels during a race. (assuming you weren't running onroad radials on asphalt. :P
The second car happens to be the first non-Kyosho vintage buggy I've bought so far. It's a Marui Galaxy. It's missing it's wing and it's steering linkages, and the tires are pretty bald, but overall it's also in pretty sweet condition.
Doing a little investigation is my buddy Marvin. After a few minutes of sniffing, he seems to have deemed it to be a non-threat!
