If you dont want td to know what people want to be tweeked or info or problems that people are struggling with or things that can be made better

Really, that's like comparing a Kia with an VW!

Fox, have you had a bit to drink tonight ? Put the keyboard down and go to bed !

+1 :thumbsup:
Don't worry he's off slaging off stotfold now in a different thread :thumbdown:

But has anyone said anything really bad no,just things that could be tweeked like manual,Maybe a setup book like xray
I have 210 and v3 on order so its not like i dont like durango just tell td sooner what problems as us mear mortals will put the car through more than the likes or jorn etc.
If people finding a few parts are breaking easy i am sure td would sort it if that was needed

@ Fox - clicky here

:lol:

Sorry Robocop, my comment was out of order.. However I do think it's a ridiculous to say if you regret buying what is a great car, and great value for money...

I find the lower screw securing the spur/pinion cover to the motor plate is obstructed by the unused mounting points on the side pods which has now resulted in me cross threading it :( roll on the option heat sink version lol.

No complaints with the manual from me :)

Im not realy worried upgrade parts will come out and every car has a few problem here and there.

Ran mine for the 1st time today...
Diff is a nightmare seems sweet on the bench, but run it on a high grip track (carpet indoors) and it slips like a bugger. Had to tighten it up and it started to feel very tight on the bench, others had a similar problem.

I thought I'd run it, see if it would free up, the car ran for 2 mins then lost all drive.
The fault was the circlip in the diff, it had failed and popped out of it's retaining groove.

4 other people at the track had the exact same problem !
Luckily a guy who ran a Couger had anticipated the problem when building his diff, he noted the diff becoming stiff when tightening (as the circlip begins to fail) and he'd replaced his circlip with a Schumacher one.

I rebuilt my diff as did a mate with Schumacher clips and problem solved.

Diff ran ok, but still is nowhere near as free as say an AE diff ?

So beware, your clip could fail in your diff....

I also had the same diff problem at Batley today, however after rebuilding the diff the with the schumacher circlip (thanks Eugene) same happened in the next heat, rebuilt diff again and stretched the circlip slightly and worked ok in the final. And the car was fantastic :D

well i will be using the geardiff the moment they are out

I'm always amazed at the threads like this, started by wanna-be engineers whose production experience is limited to clogging the toilet. :thumbsup:

Ran mines today for the first time indoors, carpet. Went fairly well after a tightened up the diff. Has not issues with the diff thereafter. Running an SXX and X12 8.5 at profile 8 on the speedo. Had plenty of power. Had staggers on the front, fitted only to the outer edge of the rim. Steering was ok once I had correct setup the EPA on the radio. Thought about maybe trying spikes or pins on the fronts, not sure weather to go for slim or 4WD fronts as the wheels are wider.

Overall though the car felt good, very similar to my TLR22 when I had it in mid motor config.

The only thing I need to redo is my rear shocks, the pistons stick up about 1.5-2mm from the tops of the shock body which I don't think is right. I have tightened the bottom of the shocks as far in as they go. The front shocks are perfect, but the rears are way too hard, need to go for much lighter oils, I was running 35wt AE oil, but this would appear to be way too heavy.

All in all, very happy with the car so far.
