Funny you mention that about the one pack not fitting. I worked on a friends car and his battery seemed larger. It was a GP3300 with shrink and it measured .901 and I measured one of mine with shrink and it was .892. Not a huge difference, but there is a difference.

It has been said and has become a large topic out here, but the most important thing is to get the slot in the chassis right.

I just have to post to you all how I choose to wire up my JRX-S. It is nice and neat and make it so ther is little chance of me melting my belt on accident. I took half of a battery bar and bent just about half of the the end out to accept the wire. I only did half so that is was easier to install the batt's. And as you can see I ran the wires around the stand offs so that I could get my iron in the side to solder. Now it does make is a bit more difficult to hold the wire but I always use pliers anyways so it is a no brainer for me. but it is pretty easy. I just wish I could drive the car since I have all this neat wireing done. I was a victim of missing parts. But here you all go. What do ya think?

why? need it for your xray? I have had several guys with X-rays come in looking for replacement for the Thrust balls w/race. The Duratrax Trust balls for the Nitro evader seam to work fine, but did not get a chance to try the JRXS balls w/race, but It does look very close in size to the xray......

Todd,

For stock/foam racing-whats the lowest rear toe in youd recommend and how to achieve it?

In other words-0-deg pivot blocks and 1-degree hubs

-or-

2 degre pivot blacks and say 1-degree hubs on backwards.


I am leaning towards less inboard toe in and put it on the hubs. Makes car more aggressive???

You got it

XRay's are very expensive and I'm looking for an alternative!
If you can measure them it would be nice (the whole xray community will thank you )

Thank you

OH-dude-that really, really sucks!! YOU can do what I did a few years ago-go on sight acquisition trips and start calling for any property you see and see what you can do.

Some landlords are desperate and some understanding to the needs of a non-for profit club or group looking to rent some space for a track.

Also see if the old woners will sell there carpet and/or scoring system cheap.

YOu can do it-I did.

The Corally thrust are a direct fit for the x-rays! If you can get them in your area.

Todd, RBLove, Ray or Anyone

How far out do you have to space the front shocks top and bottom to run the number 1 hole inside on the tower? So that it does not rub.

Thanks,
