Well I do know that Tamiya USA did distribute a few "spools" and locked pulleys (different than what the normal locked pulley is) around the September time frame. So I wouldn't count out a 415 WCR with a Spool inside. After all, it would be a "limited" kit. And it wouldn't be a "true" Replica if it didn't have a Spool.
But who knows... if Tamiya did announce a 415 WCR before the 415MS is released... I'm sure it would hurt the sales of the 415MS since people would hold out instead and buy the 415 WCR.
Just a thought.. hehe..

Speedtech R/C (www.speedtechrc.com) is the best place to buy Tamiya parts unless you happen to know a TRF driver or live in Aliso Viejo, CA
I don't know the part number for the front bridge block A (Steve, could you post that?) Thats probably why I got the wrong part in the mail

I use the tape to hold the batteries in, But I install a cut down TB02 battery brace to go over the top of batteries, and the under the tape. I can reuse the tape all week even running mod foam. I have had many troubles with the batteries looking like a W before I finaly came up with these solutions.
The only problem runing foams on the car seems to be when you use the LW suspension. The earlier mentioned lowering of the king pin helps if you run 28mm like jaco on the older suspension. If you want to run the LW suspesion, it doesn't allow the backspacing of the 28mm wheel without more modifying of suspension. I am still working on a better setup, I am still a little off pace of where I'd like to be, but thats using some of the best drivers in the nation type of times for a goal.

for indoor carpet, to cover mod through stock, 24 through 30 should cover for 102 spur. On a tight indoor carpet track (80x40), with Monster stock, 102/28 works well.

I'm guessing the higher ones are for 19t
Guys are gearing the snot out of the Reedy Spec 19's

Another WOW.
I guess for those of us who race on carpet indoors only, we can't even fathom that gear ratio.
US seriously needs more tracks like Tamiya track, you guys in CA are spoiled.

to conserve space on our website, a lot of times we consolidate similar parts under one part number. The option you want to select is the A-bridge block.
