Just curious EJ, was that setup mostly for the spec Jaco blues? For club racing are you changing your setup? I know everyone is always messing with setup, but I think you know what im trying to ask lol

And how tough are the suspension parts? I know the Scythe had Cyclone parts, and they can be fragile. The Photon parts look alot tougher?

Thanks

FYI....
Who won?
What car ?
Whatever ...
I state my case.
a W is a W.
And blow me with all the certain thread shit.
No one here has a clue and the car doesn't matter .
Setup and driver .... ANY CAR WILL DO JUST FINE....pig

Do we have a release date and/or price on the Photon? Are we able to pre-order?

Kenny I use sticks too!

Just back from setting up the track, loads of banners now up around the circuit, marquee up and tables/chairs set-up.

Watch it live here:

I was mistaken, looks like there'll be 6 Photon's running at this weekend's Much-More UK GP

I like to give props to TopRacingUSA for getting my order out so fast. I placed an order after talking to Mike at Top USA. Even though he was super busy I Paypaled the money and he got my part sent out and had it in 2 days. Excellent service.

Thanks again
Brian

Who said you didn't edit it?
And as usual, no one follows instructions either.

or is there a kit setup that is more stable/suitable to start with.

Hi Rod, yes I was running weights along the center of the chassis. I'll take some pictures and post them. I think it will be a suitable setup for 10.5, 13.5, and 17.5.

Hey Craig, Josh will have to answer this.

I'm not sure what it really does. If you do try it though, remember that it changes your wheel base so make sure to account for that with arm position by putting more spacers in the rear like I did.

I dont know. Ohhh well

During club racing I always like trying new things, so I'm sure it will change a little. I ran this setup at SW with Sorex and it worked great. The Photon suspension parts are pretty tough. Not bullet proof, but definitely about as good as what’s best in the market today. The arms are BEEEEEFY. LOL
