My local track's touring car season opens in April or May next year. This will be my first year there. Its an outdoor asphalt road course and from talking with the track owner it seems most people are running foams. Seems like a waste of money to me to burn up a set of tires in one day. I like to run rubber on asphalt but I'm afraid rubber won't be able to keep up with the foams. Any ideas or comments.

Anyone using the aluminum outdrives on their TC5. See any advantage to using them maybe added strength.

Hi, The alu outdrives are much better, much stronger and about 4-5 gram more than std outdrives but thats no worries. Just make shure you use the pin/outdrive savers!!
This is a pic of my new layout running 5cell/novak brushless system.
Hopefully the car will be nicley balanced like this, Craig D was running this layout @ a recent race meet and he said that the balance was much better like this, His car did look dam good aswell

I used the plastic diff nut from the stock out drives with no problems
is there something different for the alum out drives?

tcfree, what are the pin/outdrive savers? Do they come with the kit or the aluminum outdrive kit? If not its something else I have to pick up.
