Yep, looks good now!

Cheers, Dave.

Missing some wheels and tires if you ask me

Kidding aside, it looks good and I'm sure you're gonna have fun with it. I've done several mid conversions and like very much how they handle.

I knew I forgot something! lol
Wheels/tires are in a zip lock bag staying "fresh."

Another successful night at the track with this car last thursday. Only thing i broke was a rear bearing. Had many a crash and performed several cartwheels with it and the 3d printed front arms are still good!
Handling wise I'm getting used to the car. I think it could use a little more droop in the rear. I may also try my 25 degree arm mounts up front too, maybe with my +5 caster blocks. Overall the handling is way better than it was as a rear motor car and I'm enjoying it much more.

The low speed, off power rotation in the corners is absolutely amazing. Car drives really well. I took a small video on my phone, I'll see if I can get it into photobucket and post up here.

I'll need to get some parts together and start visiting you more

Try moving rear shock in one hole on rear arm. This was .5 second faster straight away. This also adds droop.

Was your car jacking the inside rear tire mid corner?

Joey was thinking the same thing about moving the shocks in one hole in the rear, but we were thinking we would probably need to compensate with stiffer springs. I'm running white BB springs in the rear and gray in the front right now.

I'm running the big bore white front and green rear springs on mine and it is happily balanced.
