Old skool car, old skool tranny

No I didn't make the shock tower, it came on the car from the bay. I just gave it a quick polish......

This is my spare car for the vintage championship we are running here in the UK at York Off Road Car Club. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b213/Northynorthy/Goldtubshell.jpg http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b213/Northynorthy/Goldtubsidetop.jpg http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b213/Northynorthy/G...

Those were made by Fibrelyte in the UK and are meant to go with the full carbon tub moulded chassis they did.

My mate had one on his RC10, but sold it

2nd and 3rd in from the left on the back row. I was racing the Schumacher ProCat, but had a Gold Tub RC10 ready as a spare car!

TQ'ed and won with the ProCat! They've banned it though, so I might be running the Gold Tub next time.

Jimmy and Stu will be doing reports tonight I'm sure.

G

Thanks, but no they're different.

Check this out from last night:

How do I do it? I'm in the UK and haven't seen anything on their site.

Great, thanks.

Is it possible to purchase parts direct from Associated?

Need the motor plate too.

Bugger, I'll have to get a T2 gearbox case then. Are they still available?

Cheers,

G

We are actually doing a report for the one of the English magazines!

We'll get plenty of pics, we have the guy from oOple.com and the guy from northernracer.com racing who are big into taking pictures (check out their sites). I've also just bought a fancy camera!

Might also take the camcorder.

G

I will do.

Just building up a Gold Tub to race on Saturday night in our first vintage championship round.

G

Yeah! That'll be one complete (minus shell, wheels and shocks - but I'm onto that) T2 then!

They are sooooo cool.

Cheers,

G

Does anyone know if the T2 tranny had the same overall ratio as the B2?

I have a T2 minus gearbox, and a spare B2 box, get what I'm thinking?

Sorry, but I do agree with Northy... i wasn't looking for anyone to agree with me. i feel that if someone is going to tell you that your wrong, the least they could is explain there reason, too. not just say "i don't think so". but hey, i'll admit, i was wrong in my description of the use...

Well we don't race dirt oval here in the UK, so I've never done it. I race offroad, and everyone I know (Including 2wd world champ, other worlds A and Euro A finalists) fit different springs to alter the spring rate, and use the shock collars to set ride height only. But whatever works for you. I wi...
