Hi guys, ran my secondhand bought durga for the first time last night, it was AWESOME!!! the local guy i bought it from ran it outdoors on a dry/dusty track, but he only ran it about 3 times so the chassis is in great shape. He put the tamiya upgrade shocks on it, as well as the swaybar set, new bearings and the slipper clutch. I ran in the sportsmans 4wd class (this is U.S indoor track with a bit better than medium bite) I got faster each qualifier and ended up qualified 5th. In the main about 3 minutes in I was all over the 2nd place car when my front right wheel came off at the end of the sweeper
still I had so much fun! the car just felt better and better every time i drove it!. I had read that the car uses the same hex and pin wheel configuration as the losi and the b44, so i bought b44 rims. The first time i drove the car for practice the same wheel fell off so i ended up putting a couple shims on before putting on the wheel, and some loctite also. What is the best solution for this problem, or should i just buy some tamiya rims and go that route? Also, where is the best place in the states to get some carbide diff balls, and what size are they? One more question, my car has about 3 mm of slop in the front arms from the pinholders, would it be worth it to upgrade to the aluminum front pinholders?
Thanks in advance!
Mike
