Racing breakages on the 22
 

After the first bit of racing with the 22 which parts if any seem to get broken, might be handy if we compile a bit of a list for spares.

Ive seen idler gears and the diff go (not sure on the quality of diff grease in the kit), other than that nothing else

arms and legs from all the people you whoop ass with on the track:woot::thumbsup:

I don't think the wing will last very long ....

I've had mine over a week now and haven't broken anything. Possibly because I haven't run it yet:D

Did someone say 10th scale bat wings :woot:

onyl thing hapening to me was loosing a wheelnut (front) .
The car is realy strong, even had a really bad crash on the straith on full trothle and nothing broke.

hahah! thats a classic reply!!

On a serious note. I think the wing may break, The shape of the back will make it brittle i think. Alothough i have a spare B4 wing that fits perfectly so i may run that.

id be careful on the track, might break the hearts of other racers.....

Was this due to incorrect build, slipper too tight ?

RW Racing ;)

hoping there is no breakages as 1st tomorrow

I think it was due to dodgy moulding on the gear, looked like it had a fracture in it, but hard to say if it was caused by gears going or was here from new

Gave mine a pretty hard time at Ardent, and nothing broke. :)

1st run last night - clipped a track marker at end of main straight, kart-wheeled at 40+ mph into a brick wall :woot::woot:
EVERYTHING STAYED IN 1 PIECE!!!, but left a nasty mark on wall:blush::blush:

I did have a couple of diff issues but have now sorted it (replaced diff nut with a Tamiya one).

These cars are awesome :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Does the diff bolt and nut from the 416 fit ? if so thats a good plan !

If its an m2 nut then it should. I used the one out of an M-chassis - the nut has a thicker bead of nylock on it and it sits deeper in the holder, allowing the screw to get a better bit of it.

let me start the ball rolling then
 

:blush: Firstly my car is made up rear motor, i put diff on wrong side screw head (spur gear side) so diff came loose and needed a complete rebuild. (also put new ceramic diff balls in as i was rebuilding):thumbsup: also so kid rammed my car which was over turned at end of main striaght, and bent the lay shaft:mad: other than that. strong car took a beating at layland club ohh yeah forgot to say front wheel came off due to loose wheet nut/screw.....:thumbsup:

Isn't that the correct side? i've been told (and have always run) it with the screw on the right (when looking from behind).

Mine came loose because I had stripped some of the nylock from the nut, and then completely stripped it when I went to tighten it up again.
