Another Identify My Inferno

Can anyone here help to identify this car, make, model, engine? It's been sitting is storage for about 8 years. The writing on the engine says "OS MAX RX". I would like to try and get this running but I'm a little unsure what I will need. Other than the car there is also a Futaba Magnum Junior radio. Does anyone still sell parts for the car?

Thanks in advance!

It's an original 1991-94 Inferno of some sort (mixture of parts). Turbo Inferno chassis, Inferno/Inferno DXII shocks, Duratrax front and rear chassis brace, DX or DXII steering linkage (Inferno and Turbo Inferno have dual Ackerman links), looks like a DX/DXII centre diff too (the Inferno and Turbo Inferno had an adjustable centre diff), Turbo Inferno wheels and wing, Kyosho hop-up aluminium radio posts, and I'm guessing Fybrelite shock towers and plates too.

I still run a Turbo Inferno along with my Kanai 3, stills loads of fun 10 years on!

About 99% of the parts still stocked by Tower Hobbies (despite some of them officially being discontinued!).

Hope that helps.
