Did Ruben say if Mod is also going to be rubber tire or foam like in years past? But the EU'007 is the ticket. I've been telling peeps down here that I really don't know what else Mr. Hudy can do to produce a more competitive car! But I know they will figure something out
All of the racing this year has been on rubber tire's. Trust me....the traction is way better than Vegas so you don't have to worry about that. There hasn't been a mod class yet but I'd rather run mod for this race rather than 19 turn if the turn out is up. until that happens i'm all 19, so long as i'm having fun

EDIT: More food for thought since you lost so MUCH money due to these allegations..."Imitation is the highest form of flattery."

Besides this chassis and the '007 bulkheads, what else is required for a conversion?

Wicked steering! If you can handle it, you can carry more speed. You use less steering and scrub less speed. Most will need to turn down the dual rates!

Default Servo Placement

Question about servo placement on the T2 007. Are most of you running the servo mounted in the forward holes? I am using a KO 2365 ICS.

i had to use spacers between the servo mount and servo itself, if not the linkage would rub on the top deck

In most cases the forward hole gives you a better chassis balance. I use the Futaba S9550 servo. I drill and countersink one extra hole in the front to move the servo even more forward.

At Cleveland - some of the top guys were running this combo and found in the early stages they gained 2/10th's versus the typical Dbl Pink Rear/Dbl Pink-Orange fronts. As the race continued on, some of these guys switched back to the traditional combonation as the dbl-pink/dbl-pink combo was unpredictable at times.

Both stock and mod or was it more of a mod thing?
