point 4; Still not possible to mount shocks at the rear side of the suspension arm and as mentioned before i don't think there is any need for it.

point 5; After testing it is proven that no dust will get inside the gearboxes, a sealing edge is not essential.

point 6; It's easier with a B44.1 motormount!

point 7; Obviously you don't have a clue what a double slipper clutch is and what is does.

Some other improvement points:
-the inner camber link mounts are too high
-the front gearbox cover should be reinforced

Why do you think i don't like this car? I love it! But if you read my posts in this topic welll, i wrote that there is room for improvement.
clearly i havent got a clue i do appologise

one thing can you please explain to me what the difference between the 511 slipper and the 502 slipper.

also can you show me a picture of the lower gearbox detail of the db02 to see how they have achived the clearnce for the angled steering rack.

camber link to high not if your racing on high grip
gearbox cover pssibly differnt matterial possibly the db02 gearbox top (softer plastic) not carbon composit

yes the b44 mount is easier but the 502 doesn't have that, thats why they supplied the correct tool for the job

as for mounting the shocks on the rear im confused tamiya do not say you can do this so so why are you surprised you cant!

the tower could be slightly angled agreed but the reason you have a ball at the top and bottom of the shock is so it can sit at its own angle to a point if tamiya had suplied the longer bolt and 2mm spacer not a problem.

the reason i think you dont like this car is you have posted nothing but negatives towards it.
