DCM, a few question about your DF-03:
1) Did you break any parts while you had that car? If so, which parts did you break the most?
I didn't break much, but then I didn't run it much either, the spares weren't available much, and that stopped me really running it.
2) How did you protect the chassis from nasty scratches? Did you use a chassis tape like the one from 3M?
I didn't, but you could use the Associated Chassis protection sheet?
3) How did you thread the antenna through the that antenna holder? The slot in that holder seems too narrow and it seems to cut into the insulator of the antenna, was thinking about getting another after-market antenna holder (like a duratrax one or something)...
I honestly can't remember, but don't seem to of had a problem with them in the past..
4) What was the advantage of turning the shocks the other way? I know that the stock rear arms has the extra set of mounting holes in the rear for some strange reason, what would be the best reason for doing so?
I did that, from memory, so I didn't have to have a two piece rear shock tower, so I made a single piece tower and mounted the shocks off the rear.
5) Final question, did you notice that the center drive shaft rubbed against the top deck of that chassis? I'm thinking about breaking in the car with a dummy motor on my motor-break-in function of my charger and just let it wear down before taking it to the track...
I did lots of trimming and stuff on the car, and yes, it is worth bedding the car in on a motor
