501x..... Heck yeah!

[Power Surge]

Finally got to take my 501x to the track tonight after it sitting here looking pretty for months. Never ran it before. Man, what a car!

I would have broke my Terra Scorcher a dozen times tonight if I was running it. The 501x didn't bat an eye to any abuse.

The only issue I had, was that I wiped out the slipper. I had it set per Tamiya's directions (3.5mm showing on the shaft I think it was). Any ideas how to prevent this in the future?

Oh yeah, and this thread would be worthless without a muddy (well, clay) pic!!



And that's a 511 body set. It fit right on the 501. The ONLY deviation from cutting it for a 511, was I had to take a tiny bit more off the very nose where it passes by the blue upper link mount. Other than that, it cut out where it said to cut out for the 511.
