Old School 4WD

[speed-phreak]

Ok well here a classic, I got this car in 1984 or 85 not exactly shure when it was. But This is a chain driven 4WD with a fiberglass chassis, The Big Red Keyosho shocks. Has a slipper clutch for the chain, and a Reedy Modified motor. This car was raced in what they called OPEN Class. "You are truely old school if you remember racing OPEN" I'm sure there is only a hand full of people on this board that can tell me who made this car????? Take your best shot :nuke:

Easy..... Yokomo made it, the original Yokomo Dogfighter. Back in the day it was also known as the RPS Dogfighter. Sold through "The Ranch Pit Shop". Gil Losi Jr. drove one of these.

I remember a "Super Dogfighter" but can't recall the differences....

I used to have one. Wish I still had mine....

Yup Yup, and it was Gil jr who helped me install the slipper for it LOL. I would race down at the Ranch there almost every wednesday, and Saturday.

I agree with ApriliaRacer. It's a Yokomo (early '80s).....and yes, I used to race open dirt oval. We called it "Outlaw Night"...7 cell, run-what-you-brung !!!!
