My Alfa race car
Well, aside from my Verde daily driver, I thought I'd throw up a picture of my Alfa race car fresh from the Nationals race.

Nice Alfa!!

KO Propo
My favorite brand of remote controls.

I am "restoring" a Serpent Excel 9000 1:8 right now, what chassis is that in the avatar?

Ahh, the old Serpent, cool car. The car in the pic is my old Mugen MRX-3 with a Frewer body. 1/8 scale nitro onroad is my main class and I currently run a Kyosho Evolva.

It's rare that the coolest looking body happens to be the one that performs the best too. Parma did a great job on this 156 and it worked great.

Yep. Very old. I got her like 14 years ago when I was in junior high
Hence the restoration.
It has the old EX-10 (one the first KO Propo with 6 car settings and a DOT MATRIX LCD screen) - damn, i am old
I am going to put the HPI Toyota GT-ONE body on it when it done. (Just for fun, that chassis is too old to race)
But it has an ITALIAN engine on it!! A 14 year-old .21 TOP engine!!

Any idea where I can find the three speed gearbox for the Excel?

I am amazed that I can still find all kind of parts for her as long as I have the part#.

My first "Alfa" was a Kyosho Lazer (modded to on-road) with a Kyo 1:10 155V6Ti DTM (the one that is not to scale unlike ur 1:10) - that was a BRICK aerodynamicly!! It only looked good, but I had to put a Skyline R32 body on it for race.

Only if they have an Alfa T33 1:8 body...
