If you are using the truck bulkhead I gave you the wrong center link or you need to put the ball studs on the inner holes and it would be better if you cut off the outside holes and areas they are in. For no bump steer the ball studs need to be the same distance apart as the front arms inner hinge pins. Sorry
It was great to meet you and thanks for letting me go on and on and on....

Re: Old is new, and a classic restoration, I wanna do both!
The inside holes were for the first RC10 T's so you should be good, after a while we made RC10 T center links and never removed the inner holes from the RC10 center links - do not know why??? I have RC10 T center links if you want to trade out. Daryl

Re: Old is new, and a classic restoration, I wanna do both!
I have been using the outside holes with my 10T nose
, I will move them in during the current rebuild. Although it worked great before(very very little bump steer).

Re: Old is new, and a classic restoration, I wanna do both!
Things that will be addressed very soon;
I was very bummed on the quality of the carbonworks towers, so I will be running the worlds front (thanks jkracing!) and a fibrelyte worlds rear.
I will also be getting a new turnbuckle/ball cup set, rpm mini bumper and a new body of course

Re: Old is new, and a classic restoration, I wanna do both!
Jared, I built another car to come play @ WC with, setting it up for stock class:


Hoping I can make it out tomorrow, still need to finish up electronics.

Re: Old is new, and a classic restoration, I wanna do both!
Well after a very frustrating day at the track last week, I'm rebuilt and ready to roll. I had a guy think it would be a good idea to ram me from behind full speed and literally push me over the quad. Broken hub and cracked wheel, didnt even make one lap! So I ordered extra CP hubs this time
Ive added a rpm mini bumper, worlds front tower (thanks jk!) carbon strap and new shorty lipo. Please forgive the crappy paint job!
