what combo of spur and pads are u using guys?it seams that 91t spurs are only the tamy ones.

diff/belt cover arrived a couples of days ago ,fit nicely.
regarding the rear top plate i haven't had any problem with it at moment,but i know that the TRF TEAM did breake it too.

after three club meetings,crashed few times at the end of the straight because i couldn't apply breaks due to slipping belts and the car seems solid.

Quick Question:
What parts have people use to convert the front Hexs to 12mm? or Do you all just order 10mm Wheels to suit?

caneye 28-07-2014 05:31 AM

I was told that the Team C's 12mm hex is a direct fit.

finally had a chance to run my car, over 2 months after taking delivery of it. :bored:
ran it in an indoor carpet track. (i was going to get diff covers to run outside but since the indoor track opened up, i just couldn't pass up the opportunity).
Still box stock set-up.
- ran went, jumped well. no breakages. :)

stoked.

car struggled with traction-rolling, even after i installed the rear sway bar. (was using Proline Pinpoint F & R)

i'm thinking of going to stiffer springs too.
any other suggestions?

also looking to get some o-rings for the diffs. the rear diff appears to be leaking a tad.

I hope that either Fredrik or somebody gets the carbon fiber upper and lower decks done soon:cry:

I need to try e-mailing Sepes again for the upper decks...:bored:

Nice idea on the weight ... I wonder if it replaces the inner battery holders since it's a little wide:woot:

yeah you just unscrew the inner lipo stays. Will see if can get a picture up of it in the car. Also have the drawings of the top decks and battery braces on the site now with shock towers going up shortly with a pre order option. Prices will be as competitive as we can make um!
