Not to sure yet was going to put the speedy from the Mini into it as I have a new 13T set in the Mini now. I do know though the 13T is so over powered for the F1 cars. So not to sure yet.

Will have to look out for the springs as well then. Geoff help me allot on Friday finding all the Hop-ups I had listed on my to get list as well as some more coming through the week.

The mini combo is a bit of a handful. I tried mine late yesterday with a 1965kv 380 size motor and went faster than previously by around half a second.....
A sensored motor would be easier to drive , as the one I'm using is still very brutal in its torque delivery down low. In the near future, I'm looking at running a 21.5 in blinky mode. You really want a smooth power band, to get some good drive out of the tight turns ...

G'day,

Just finished putting together most of the car. One thing I have notice is that there is allot of play in the front shafts. Is this the front bearing you where all talking about before?

I have a Spectrum DX3.0 or something like that. I figure i can adjust the throttle down to make the car more drive able.
