Tim knows the track, and unlike me who has yet to go drive it, hes actually raced on it. So I am sure his recommendations are good. I just don't want to be so slow that is not fun to drive with other people who are racing. I understand my car wont be as strong performer as other "race chassis" nor will my rusted driving, but I I want to at least we able to NOT be the grandma on the fast lane or on the back straight and cause an accident. I know that with 5:1 my cars feels good in the parking lot with no grip ect, so I think I wouldn't hurt to gear up a little bit. After all the motor is running very very cool still.

^ needless to say, the information no this thread has helped me tons and Ive really learned a lot about this car and 10th scale electric overall. In nitro, I did not mess with gears at all, just the clutch. So this is a bit new to me. (ok I did race mini-z and I do have slot cars but they are completely different to a TC)

Thanks for the website.
The right hand steering mod is mounting the servo on the right side of the car. This puts the esc on the left side, away from the belts and with shorter/cleaner motor wiring. You can do it with the stock parts, but it takes some dremel grinding. I made a mirror imaged K6 (in the manual) to make hassle free. PM me if your interested.

(for those who dont know)the white lightning comes out a liquid and solidifies when it dries. It is a mix between a wax and lube. As it absorbs dirt, it gets even harder and eventually falls off. If you put it in a bearing, it will eventually accumulate dirt and metal shavings and with no where to fall or leave, it will seize the bearing. Not good.
