xceed or Spec will work ! what you want to do is put the first gear in but small amount a a time put it as much as you can as long as the other gear will fit in and then put the middle gear, then put more en then close it and it should be good.

Hallo,

A quick question regarding Cam holders. What is the difference in using the higher numbers (17-32) or lower numbers (1-16)? OK the diff is higher or lower so the weight is higher or lower. Buth other than that? Can I get some different handling?

Thanks

running the notches up 1-16 will make the diff lower and running the notches down will make the diff higher. I have found to like the diff lower 99,99 percent of the time and stick to it. diff height will change the way the car handle. in some case we run the front diff higher to help the car get out of the turn and it will give you a bit more steering. It has been a long time since I have played with diff height but I when I did I have always found the mid low position to be the best in most case.

I beleive the pink is 14.? and the blue is 12.12.***BUT*** the pink has more coil than the blue so they feel very similar when you compare them since one is more progressive than the other.

Hi Cory,

I beleiver I ran 0/10/8/1 last time I ran with stock rotor 36/106 and 25 degree timing ! I assume this is for Snowbirds ? I am almost positive this is what I found was best few weeks back when I tested but just come see me at the birds and I will help. keep up the good work

No problem, my pleasure glad I was able to help. Good to see a big group of guys running in new rochelle and keep it up, you were running very good for the short amount of time you been doing it.

Keven,

it is posible to put your tc6.1 car on weight scales each corner?

And share how many grams is at front under tire and rear end?

Car ready to run.

Thank you

I am using a 2 Millions CST sillicone oil. It is very effician.

PS : 2 M cst oil is available at SMS shop in France.

Hi Keven,

I see you cut your top deck a little, do you get more flex with this?

I was reading someone was cutting the shock towers in half to get more chassis flex. Do you think this is a good idea for low traction surface tracks or did you maybe tried it yourself?

Thanks
