Yeah im shure it is!

Its not a bad thing, I just thought it would slip in, But I guess running saddle packs is dealing with tape or something to hold them in, so its all about the same

And you got pm coming

Jason, I notice you had steering ballhead behind servo horn. I guess this will give more ackerman angle than had it front ahead servo horn, correct?

May I suggest that in your next batch of chassis, to add third, even forth servo mounting hold, behind of exist 2. This will give additional adjustment on ackman angle by just moving servo back.

to be honest,i found that my servo saver doesnt break as easily with them mounted there.its a leverage thing.there are 2 sets of wholes for different mounting positions.i run my turnbucles straight when looking at it from the top.i never liked the feel of the car when adding ackerman to the car.it makes it way too aggressive.i sometimes will push the inboard ballcups forward a little to take ackerman away to tone it down a bit.

to be honest,in my T bar car it was hell trying to get it wired up.the T bar takes up so much room.this was actually much neater.the only way to get the T bar car neat was to make a real wide chassis

I just ran the car for the first time today, and it was ridiculous. I don't think I have ever had a 1/12 car run that good with a box setup. Easy to drive, great steering, yet stable, sailed through the corners.

I ran a stock motor at first, and then jumped to an 8 turn for the rest of my runs. The amazing part was that the car drove the same, it was just faster. That makes me think the setup window is huge on the car. darnold was at the track with his car, and I tried a couple of his small changes to see what they would do. The car just got better.

Admittedly, there was only a light groove on the track. If we can maintain this driveability in high traction situations, it's gonna be on all winter.
