Dude, you have a bad memory...
I waited for 2 months for my FS MT. Then, he promised some spare parts because of the fiasco. Never got them.
Also, my gas tank cap has never fit. Sent a note about that, and of course, no reply.

I should have listened .Overrated, overtime, overthem

Looks good lbsickboy, great job

. Don’t forget to use locktite when you install them. I thought I broke a shock shaft on mine, but it turned out the shat just worked its way out of my alloy forks. I really enjoy tinkering and making parts, it is half the fun of these cars, and from the looks of it you do to. Once again great job!!

nice paint job looks real where did ye get that from then i wanted one to but they are a bit to high in price for me but when i get one for the right price then im going to paint it flu pink and the fg baja rims to
now all we need is a vid from ye which wold be nice so we are waiting

lbsickboy, thanks for the compliment. Here it is all finished, for the moment anyway

I got the bod from Innovative. Was the cheapest place I could find it that also had the rear wing. I originally had FG Stadium rims and tires on it, but there is just something about me and MT wheels!!

I gotta say it again too, these rigs are pretty damn tough. I have beat this thing hard and the only thing I have had happen was I bent one of the top screws that hlod the front shocks to the towers. The 30cc does seems to be a bit sluggish on the low end, but my pipe is on the way. I am sure having to get those big meats turning has something to do with it as well.

I GOT FS RACING 4x4 Mt Is MCD MT TIRES AND WHEELS FIT ON FS 4x4.....AND CHANGES ON SHAFT OR WHEEL ADAPTER Need HELP

hi all and thanks for the complements about the alloy forks hey pwaicon it was you who started these diy fork so i thought id give it a try the first one was a bit on the beefy side so a went back to the drawing board and made them a tadge thinner the only thing left to do now is polish them up and hey presto thanks again oh yep you are right making your owen parts is half the fun and saves money and the fart on with web shops lol
oh went for a bash today with (fs mt 4wd )hes busy running his cy engine in so i thought id give it wat for first the wheel fell of my bad i didnt check the nuts on them and then got that sorted and the bleeding thing just stopped dead on me i thought the sand got in their but no took it home opened it up my 30 cc just give on me bloody mary the bearings and the piston looked like they just been shot with a shot gun
i advise any one who is thinking of getting one of these 30cc dont bother get the cy they are much much better quality
now im a lucky bugger because i do have a 26cc zen in the house so now thats going in

well here is some pics for you all to see enjoy lol
