Feel free to ask any other questions.

Are you rebuilding a Procat?

Hi Chris

This is the belt I'm using at the moment...

length: 320 teeth
width: 6mm (note - kit belt is 4mm wide)
pitch: MXL
material: kevlar reinforced urethane
supplier: SDPi

My mate got this video of me at Stotfold yesterday.

It's in HD so remember to select that option when viewing.

Sweet

JC Racing are selling their excellent range of vintage Schumacher wheels direct from their website...

Check out with PayPal.

...or keep two holes but make them 1.5mm diameter?

Anyway, what about putting the top link here...

I could try a heaver oil and drill out 3 holes 1.4mm giving less pack?

Very interesting! For the rear dampers I'm using Tamiya No.4 pistons, which have 2 x 1.4mm diameter holes, and 27.5wt Losi oil. On the wishbone, the bottom of the shock is mounted in the second hole from the outside (No.2 in the picture below) http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m134/kaszal/untitled-...

I think it's overdamped or maybe too much "pack". When it hits a small bump at speed the whole rear end "hops" up. Could just be the shock position on the wishbone. I'll move it in and see if it's better. We'd all look forward to seeing what you come up with for your Procat racer...

Well, looks like in the pic, the tie rods are in a similar place. What I notice more than anything else is those crazy long outdrives. They should/could bind the suspension a fair amount under acceleration. This is because they will force the sliders to extend and collapse more than usuall. Usually...

Please can anyone explain how the following set ups will handle differently e.g. roll centres, grip, turning, bump handling?

Thanks

You're welcome! I never had a SWB but I found the manual online... http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m134/kaszal/SWBmanualpage15.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m134/kaszal/SWBmanualpage15cropped.jpg I've done something special with my Procat... http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m134/kaszal...

Hi Steve I wonder would this fit... A 6Z16M298045 from sdp-si.com https://sdp-si.com/eStore/PartDetail.asp?Opener=Group&PartID=29754&GroupID=342 It's 4.5mm wide, which is a bit wider than the kit item (4mm) or maybe this one... B-MX-298-047-NF from smallparts.com.au http://www.smallparts.com...

No problem but the Procat diff axles are definitely 1/8" (3.2mm) so that's good to know both the T-Rex thrust washer plates fit.

The Procat belt is MXL 323T 4mm neoprene but I'm using 320T 6mm wide.

I think this is the closest they do but it is 4.5mm wide...



Lots of info on my Oople thread for you too.

Really, you mean both plates fit over the 1/8" axle?
