Less or more teeth thus different internal gear ratio for evo 5 to evo 4
won`t mesh properly ,so don`t bother trying

x-ray 25ilb
second hole in on tower
rear
disconnected rollbar
x-ray 25ilb
hole `C` on Hub (made longer) like this
took .5mm shim out on Hub aswell
car could easily stay with the TQ boy`s at the club ,one of them just set new track record down Barham with BD, asphalt), the other races with Dave spashett cos he is dave`s pit man @ worlds & wot not ,so he can drive fast aswell (well underated this guy)
Memo
tamiya springs are to soft even the white`s, blue`s are equal to x-ray white`s (17ilb`s), so dark blue front25ilb(blue rear 22ilb will be a good thing by far
just carry`s so much more speed through sweepers/chicanes running the x-ray springs (indoors only this for rubbers/carpet jack the gripper additive

Any of you Tamiya guys running the V modified
Lots of belt guys running their yaps about belts. Any of you running your new V's modified??? I am running the car that is like yours (the V is on steroids compared to the Pro4) with the 4.5 and envy all that aluminum Tamiya provides you with. Throw me a friggin bone here.

Can one of you guys try out gearing on one of these...
I want to know what the smallest ratio you can fit in it is. I am not worried about a little filing to the spur gears slots on the upper lower decks to fit bigger gears, or it sticking out the bottom as I always run 6mm ride heights anyway. I want to see if you can get about 20mm rollout on rubbers (10:1 FDR)
cheers
