Thomas P 01-10-2007 07:40 AM

Some short update.. i have no pics yet, but it will come. Friday between 12-18:00 2wd/4wd time practice..you got 3 packs, on a track that was real hard to drive on, you could NOT have a spec setup, since the layout was so varius(diffrent) so something between for the whole track...rain,rain..the track was sometimes wet,sometimes moist..REAL BUMPY...very hard to drive...

Sunday, the final race day was 4wd...Practice 2 times, but HEAVY,HEAVY rain...skiped the 2 pr rounds since the track was almost under water :D..the people that aranged this,was real good, they took of te most of the water...we skied the first qual of 4, i manged to qual in to A final as number 7, my first REAL race, first race with my new S4..the car in my opinion went so much better over every bumbs of the track then the other cars, like XX4,BJ4 etc... could run it so much higher and that was the trick..no ROLL at all...the guys in this final was the ace in sweden

i did 7 and 6 in A final leg 1 and 2...the 3rd final round, i crached..my mistake..but my goal was to run the whole race without this crach,but a A final with this competition...im happy..the car was the trick!! most of the eople said that the S4 was somuch smoother then any other car...

Jonathan, whenwill the S2 be ready :)?

Your spot on, look at the before and after pictures. The radio active shells have disintergrated almost everything and just left a few random suspension and gearbox parts LOLOL

Have you checked the back section of the manual of your 'donor' BJ4? I'd save me some typing....

Body Paint 14-10-2007 08:50 PM

There are 2 sets of anti squat blocks available for the BJ4. R 0 3 which gives 0 degrees anti squat and 3 degrees toe in and R 2 3 which gives 2 degrees anti squat and 3 degrees toe in.

If you add shims under the front or rear of these blocks you can alter the anti squat and/or the height of the hinge pin.

Thomas P 15-10-2007 03:51 PM

So sorry, ofcourse i know what it means..i was little confused, with that number and text..

Thanks BP, for that with the shims :)

Thomas P 30-10-2007 06:17 PM

just woundering, is it safe to drill thru the CF to reach the small skrew that holds the rear ingepin ? im not sure if i want to do it...last race i did crach my left rear arm, and had to dismount the block that holds the pins...kind of pain in the :D.

what can or should i d0

If you are just changing the arm thomas, you can just remove the rear suspension block and slide off the arm.

But its not a problem to drill a small hole in the tub wall, so you can use a allen key to undo the grub screw.

Thomas P 31-10-2007 06:08 AM

Thank you Mr J, yes that is no problem, the bad is, last crash i bent the hingpin..thats the reason i want to drill. :D

il do this later...have app 7 month left to outdoor
