I dont know if you saw the video of it running mod at the meeting? I was running a Li-Po batt and a 12 QUINN motor. The car was absolutely B A L L I S T I C ! Sadly when I tightened up the drive to the front to get more traction - the front axles sheared about half way through both finals.....a real shame - because I was leading both times.

ahhhh - the joys of buggy and vintage racing at the same time!

Imperial stuff isout of my league
Hope you find a way.
PS: are those really CVD's or just the old Universal joints?

CVD's on the MIP Legend kit and imperial bearings. On the earlier kits they used 5x11 (Tamiya style) metric bearings and the older style universals.

I saw the video. It was screaming. Hopefully a solution is available and it'll be back on the track soon.
