Re: Kyosho made what??

I know this is a very old thread but I just wanted to comment that I recently pick up one of these cars.
I understand they are quite rare and was wondering what did you end up doing with yours?

Re: My Yankee/Raco custom F1 project

No, I'm happy with the one that's on my car now.
It will look good once the body is filled, sanded
and painted.

Re: My Yankee/Raco custom F1 project

Thanks! It has been countless hours of design and trial and error. Once I have the suspension working the way I like I'm going to machine the parts from aluminum.

Re: My Yankee/Raco custom F1 project

Here are some progress photos of my custom Yankee F1 car with Raco F1 body. I designed and 3D printed the snorkle and nose cone. Body work and paint will be the next step for the body. 20230628_211724.jpg 20230628_211717.jpg 20230628_211739.jpg 20230628_211737.jpg The front suspension, exhaust and f...

WTB: Pacesetter Funny Car Pull Start

I'm looking for a pull start mechanism for my Pacesetter Funny Car. I think it's a Quadra engine.
The bolt pattern is 70mm x 70mm

Yankee F7 fuel line connections

Can someone please explain how yo connect fuel lines on a Yankk F7 engine. There's no primer bulb on carb. I see one inlet on the carb that I believe goes to fuel tank. The tank has a blue T fitting that I don't know what it connects to.
