This paper deals with the existence of positive radial solutions for the quasilinear system $\text{div}(|\nabla u_i|^{p-2}\nabla u_i)+\lambda f^i(u_1,\dots,u_n)=0$, $|x|\lt1$, $u_i(x)=0$, on $|x|=1$, $i=1,\dots,n$, $p\gt1$, $\lambda>0$, $x\in\mathbb{R}^N$. The $f^i$, $i=1,\dots,n$, are continuous and non-negative functions. Let $\bm{u}=(u_1,\dots,u_n)$, $\|\bm{u}\|=\sum_{i=1}^n|u_i|$,
$$ f_0^i=\lim_{\|\bm{u}\|\to0}\frac{f^i(\bm{u})}{\|\bm{u}\|^{p-1}}, $$
$i=1,\dots,n$, $\bm{f}=(f^1,\dots,f^n)$, $\bm{f}_0=\sum_{i=1}^nf_0^i$. We prove that the problem has a positive solution for sufficiently small $\lambda>0$ if $\bm{f}_0=\infty$. Our methods employ a fixed-point theorem in a cone.
