Kevin,

What's the set-up to run the 05 at SoCal? Front Oneway/ Diff/ Spool? Also, I have a set of TRF shocks that are not threaded will those work okay?
What spring set should I use the standard ones or the hard set?
Are there any other "necessary" hop-ups that are needed?

Lastly, is it TCS legal to run a motor heatsink with a fan?

Thanks.

at the reginals they allowed the fans but at the nationals they wont, only the tamiya blue heatsinks
- you dont need the threaded shock....but they help.
spring set up= blue up front , yellow in the back

TRF shocks that aren't threaded? Do you mean the purple TA03 shocks? I have those on my Mini.

Alright!

Now if you guys could just share your shock, spring, roll center, sway bar, camber, tires, inserts and gearing set ups for So Cal, I may have a chance!!!! Care to share this?

so far I only know red, yellow, silver (come std for friction shock on M-chassis), blue, white, super hard, ultra hard... and gold (come std with my TA-04 some time ago)...

Also, does sonic fiddlestick can measure the spring tension ?

Thx for the info.

Could one of you guys with a good heart tell me the stock droop settings (front and rear) of the TA05 on a Hudy system ?

Many thanks,
Mark

Default slow start

hey everyone i just joined the forum. I have a TA-05 and had it the first few weeks it came out. How well do you guys do against the other well established chassis when running in the club races. I havent been able to race my chassis yet but cant wait to put it out there.

thanks
chris
