GS STORM CL-1 THREAD
 

any body have any experience with one .

I don't have personal experience, but a guy at the track has one. The first week he put it on the track he won the a main. And has continued to do so since then.

Marty Korn finished 5th at The Dirt with a mostly stock ride. Not bad for the big pro race of the year.

I have two practice sessions on mine and will be running the first club race this weekend if it doesn't rain. Marty's set up is a very good baseline for the car. The CL-1 is very stable and tracks well. So far so good.

the CL1 is my next ride hands down

Guys this is my current outdoor set up I have been running.

anyone have any trips for getting the fluids in the diffs filled right? On mine, I built it...filled them. Ran the car. Took it apart again and the diffs were only about 1/4 the way full? I figured it was due to the smaller gears not letting the oil get under them?

Did you have any fluid leaking around the gasket or set screw ? If not it probably wasn't full .

I usually fill mine and slowly rotate the outdrive and then let it sit for a few minutes. It usually needs more to fill it after it settles.

Yea it didnt leak any around the seal or the gasket. I think I just need to realize its gonna take more than 2 minutes :lol: I will take a little more time on them next time and see if I get better results.

If there were no leaks, you have what you started with.

Yah..I just need to make sure to fill them better next time. How are you liking your car these days Brandon? Im gettin my geared up hopefully soon. Ive got a few prosecs and sp2's on my radar I would love to derail..haha

So far so good. The car is stable and real fast at the apex of a corner. I have an indoor race in two weeks at Alabama, IWC Classic race, and hope to have a good indoor set up to pass along.

Runnin,

You better do alot more homework if you are thinking about passing my Pro Spec! :sneaky:

Better yet I will give you a really good lesson on the track this year. :D

If a prospec's gas tank was any taller you would need to cut the body and the spur gear is way too big a 46 not a 44 like the cl1.

Ok I'm just playing the prospec is a dam good car too!
