Yeah i only use the HD Steel Uni's in the front of the car, for that reason. Also try and get a p-dub bumper for the front that will help prevent the unis from getting bent. If you get a p-dub bumper though make sure the wheels dont rub on the bumper as they are a little wider (you may have to trim a bit back).

Euro 2007 - SETUP?
Hi to all,
i am looking for some setup for Cyclone that works well on Franch track MONTBRISONNAIS. There was major setup change on Euro 2007 warmup race that i have found for xray, but can't find nothing for cyclone.
Hope that someone have setup to share. Thanks.

To work out FDR it's:
(teeth on spur/teeth on pinion)*internal ratio of car
the internal ratio of the cyclone is 2.4375
call the number of teeth on the pinion x:
therefore we have 4 = (100/x)*2.4375
100/x = 1.64
x = 100/1.64 = 60.9 = 61....seems like you'd want a smaller spur

How many holes of the body posts should I trim to ensure compatibility with most bodies?

If you don't want to do the calculation you can go to rcuniverse and use their rollout calculator

Looks real hard to get near 4. Even with an 88 spur and 44 pinion it's only 4.875.

Yes, I believe some people have been using the 3racing belt pullies which come in 15, 16, 17 (i think) anyway whatever number of teeth they offer I'm sure theres one bigger than the standard which lowers the internal ratio helping you get a bit lower.

You will probably find the mounting of the rear posts will vary a lot more, i had one case where the rear posts were slightly up the rear window.
