Can't believe that as the team TRF boys use them. I am interested in how durable the plastic ones are though

[fastinfastout]

has anyone broke a caster block?

[Jan Larsen]

Nope, but the alu ones offer 10 degree caster vs. the 12 degree plastic ones. More steering mid corner.

I wasnt sure what degrees the std plastic ones are until i read your post.

Yup, I can't see how they would ruin anything, it was just what I was told. The plastic ones are durable, I haven't had to replace mine and they have no noticeable slop etc.

Fitted 3Racing adjustable wing mount today :-

[Dalton]

BOTH cars fully prepared and ready for regional this sunday :-



Also both spare cars have now arrived :-

"Fitted 3Racing adjustable wing mount today"

As this isn't flexible, unlike the plastic wing mount, won't there be a greater chance of breaking either the wing or rear shock tower in a crash as everything's more rigid?

[Dalton]

With my driving somthing always breaks, wings are £4 and shock towers are £6. The plastic kit including the wing mounts are about £10 so which ever breaks its around the same price. My solution is to stop crashing

On the plus side it looks good

[Dalton]

Recived and fitted My front Fredrik's Diff cover and full set of TRF Titanium turnbuckles. Sorted out its squealing diff from this weekends batley regional and also replaced the damage i caused in the first corner crash in the final lol.

[Dalton]

Front diff cover fits like a glove and closed all the holes i would be worried about stones getting into. Front and rear diff covers are a MUST in my eyes.
