I got my sets from RcModel in HK...for like $4.50pr. and Sorex @ $7.50pr..
don't know if they still have any left.

Tamiya Anti-wear grease... I got 8 months out of mine in Mod.....only reason I changed it then was I was heading into a Major Meeting and didn't want anything to go wrong.

Dave, the car is built but it's a long story........and I'll be bringing the RDX instead. Let's just say Superior placed a nice sized order of Wicked Fast for the birds that I have to deliver tomorrow. Probably not the best day to break out the new cyclone....LOL

Myself, Ryan and Sean will be coming over tomorrow to race....

hey guys, with the bmi chassis are you supposed to use a longer rear hinge pin or something because it seems as though the holes are not in the right place with the standard hpi pin/washers setup..
cheers andy

Yes, run the T2 front hinge pins. This gives you more wheelbase options.
