no, as with real fwd drag cars it actually uses the bars to transfer weight. When the tires expand slightly it takes the weight off the rear tires making the wheelbase effectively change. Puts more force on the front wheels.

That makes sense, so it acts like a chassis stiffener to keep the front tires planted. I never would've thought of that.

Picked up a DR10 and as many already know- the stock 3300kv system is weak sauce. I had a couple motors to play with but nothing crazy. Hottest was a 7.5t Track Star. I didn’t think it would be enough so I ordered a cheap 3.5t Surpass to play with...

I am starting with a $20 Graigslist find, it was complete but ruff. It did come with a set off alum. bellcranks on it. I have been colecting parts for a while, still need a few things, but I have enough to start.

I am building a runner to play...

I've been trying to rebuild my Team Car's diff for a little while here. It just seems gritty, and I haven't found any posts yet that have done the trick. I've tried tearing it down, washing everything in solvent, cleaning the outdrive hubs w/ a...

Well, you need to check the adjustment frequently when you use new parts. The parts will wear in or seat very quickly. This means that for the first run, and a few successive runs you need to check for slipping. after a handfull of runs though, the...

This is ideally what I was thinking of:

That's obviously not an RC10t - but it looks like it might work with the rear shock tower. Not sure how it fits with the wheelbase though...

Just purchased a pinion gear from ebay. it was advertised as a RC10T3 gear...but low and behold...its not. The face width is about 1.5mm shorter than stock. I'm concerned the short face width will wear the mating PLASTIC spur gear unevenly. The...

Last post

just make sure you set the gear mesh right, it shouldn't be tight. a good way to set the mesh is to put a peice of paper between the two gears. that spacing is just about perfect.

I picked up some NOS Pro-Line 2639 2.2 front wheels for the B2 and B3, but am having a problem. The inner bearing fits perfectly properly, but the outer bearing falls into the wheel and does not fit snug.

I used my caliper, and the inner bearing...

Last post

I'd be happy to trade them off for some wide 2.2 b2/b3 wheels where the bearing fits snug. Do the genuine Associated fit? are there any other options?

I have three sets. all brand new, never seen glue.
