low on the pion mate,

10t for a small track, up to 13/14 for a long straight.

me and mark headling ran 12 and 14tooth pinions at the national last weekeend, and they were fine on the 3om straight!

have you emailed associated to get the revised front gearbox?

the front belt is way too tight, creating superior heat in the motor, if you email AE direct, they'll send out the replacement part FOC. it frees up the drivetrain a treat!

cheers matisse yes I have the new gearbox mount car is nice and free currently running a 12t pinion motor not mega hot but was being careful dont want to go cooking it apart from that its a great little car load's of fun and parts are cheap
and have found that shock oil goes ALOT further than when changing oil in 1/8th shocks

hopefully if I can get a pass form the heavly pregnant (currently 31 weeks) wife will be at next round of nationals

-1 neg camber and 10g of weight on the battery side and job done!

Oh yeah, Losi Street Meat tyres too, worked really well

DMS stock them so give Darren a shout and he can hook you up with a set.
