but what is the point of changing to hpi parts? Do you prefer them (if so, why), or is it just because you do not have tamiya spares yet?

Is it true that Surikarn and the rest of the Tamiya Team will be running the TRF 415 instead of the Evo IV at the Worlds?

Yes, the Evo IV axle bearings are quite small. Reminds me of 1/12th scale front wheel bearings. hehe... So they are easily damaged. Parts are not hard for me to get. But I prefer the reliability of a larger bearing. Just ask Fernando or Kumpol...... Arun.
So Dave... to use the HPI front spindle... I'd need a .5mm shim... bearings... a Pro4 axle.. and a TC3 dog bone. Is this correct? I'd like to get this car setup soon for carpet. And I DO NOT want to use the small bearings!!
I have my car shimmed pretty tight right now. I think the stock setting was just alittle too loose for my liking.

Maybe you should change direction and do a Marathon around Burgdorf.

I spoke to Uwe (Marc's dad) a couple of days ago. He told me that there won't be a new car or evo parts by the time the worlds are run.
To bad Marc won't be at the Euro finals next week. Would have been a good race with all the former Eurochamps there.
