Look like Yokomo to me.

My shock setup is as follows:

Front:
RB5 Top
Kit (1.3mm) 5-Hole Piston
Super Hard Orange Spring (XGS06)
40wt Losi
Long Ball End
Standard Shock Tower.

Rear:
RB5 Top
5-Hole X 1.4mm Piston
White Spring (XG012)
30wt Losi
Long Ball End

I also have a set of small bore shocks built, When I built the small bores up I set the car up with the small bores on one side & the big bores on the other. As a comparison the small shocks feel to react faster. the small bore shock feel ever so slightly softer too. but they feel pretty much the same to the touch.

I'm going to Bury tomorrow for some free practice, So i will get chance to test them both back too back.

Justarcfan,

Body shell paintwork is stunning, may I ask is it a personal creation or did you have it done professionally? If the later would you be willing to point me in their direction?

[JustARcFan]

I did chose the design/colors but Jon Miller did the superb paintjob.

You can find all the details on: http://www.rcsgraphicworx.com/

Thanks

Hi here is photo after a good weekend

[Matt Butcher]

Nice one Chris

[coleman758]

Ran the DB1 indoors last night, runs really well with the big bores.
I found I was a little short of initial steering. But plenty mid corner.

I drooped down too one washer under the front inner ball stud.
And dropped a few teeth on the pinion, to a 24t

All I can say is the car was Awsome!! To say it was its dirt propped meeting I'm very impressed!!

[gixxer]

It's here just needs a spiffing paint job by Mr Bennetts

[RogerM]

John, you will be needing MUCH less tire than that on the DB1 mate ... I'm not a fan of stagger ribs but ran them just about everywhere on the DB1.
