I was 1/100th sec off my best lap and 1 sec off best race time, first timed race day.
I had some problems with the kit settings not suiting me, but being in every race and helping to run the computer doesn't leave much time for making changes between races.
I'll make some changes in the direction I took the assassin which is awesome now. I'm expecting next race day to be much faster.
Cheers

Has anyone had any problems with the rear diff ?. I ran the car for the first time last weekend and it was with out a doubt the best touring car i have ever driven . Today the car was terrable due to the rear diff binding. It would be smooth for a few rotations then grab like a spool ...... smooth for a few more rotations then grab again. I rebuilt it and checked the balls and rings and found no problems . ran it again and the problem was still there but not as bad. I have alot of experience with rc , so i have checked the obviouse. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

check the thrust bearing in the longer outdrive, when i got mine i noticed that their was only a bearing cage in the thrust bearing with no balls, this might help

Corally is now including a delrin pulley, and exchanging the alu pulley.
You can go to your LHS for an exchange.

yes Rob told me about that at Corally USA, as of right now they dont have the delrin pulley in stock but he says when they come in he will exchange all aluminum ones for the delrin

Sure enough ....... The thrust bearring (or i should say what was left of it) was the problem. there were three balls left and i believe the metal shavings were once a bearring race or "cage"....Incase this happens to anyone else and you are in a pinch for the part , the thrust bearring of an xray diff. is the same diameter and works perfectly. Thanks for the replys guys.

I'm still putting mine together, its taking me longer then I expected with work and my other cars. I've check a couple of setups thats been posted. What shock oil wt is everyone using for front & rear? Also, how do you tell which of the sway bar goes in the ront or rear?
#340
Front bar is the shorter one.
For outdoors try 30wt oil with the larger piston 1.3mm or drill out the stock piston to like a #56.

I had problems with my diffs. When I received the parts I noticed that the machining had left a very sharp finish. Since all the edges have been cleaned off my diff has been working without any problems. I think the problem was caused by very small peices of Alloy getting knocked off and getting caught in either the thrust race or main diff rings.

i run the stock pistons in my shocks with 25 wt up front and 20 wt in rear
for springs i run 22 lbs up front and 17 rear and out track has insane amounts of grip
