King of route 66 - radio

Hi all, I've picked up a route 66 UR cab.

The owner is unsure if it has the cb radio with it, does anyone know if it is needed to use the nitro boost?

Thanks

Yes, it's the only way of doing a boost IIRC.

Thanks Andy, that's a shame - do you know of any replacements for this part, I don't think my unit is coming with the radio

I used a mic from a real CB radio I picked up at the flea market. You can make anything similar work, just refer to the wiring schematics to make the connections properly.

Thanks for the replies,

I've just had this delivered, the start button doubles as the nitro boost.

I have another question - should the wheel have force feedback, I've only powered on for two minutes but the wheel seems to turn without resistance?

Thanks

Uprights never had it, only DX one.
