Thanks for the phone call today Marco. I fabbed up a servo bracket today at the shop. Now Ive got 2 Hitec 5805MGS in the car. Problem solved. This weekend Im going to overhaul the car and get the alignment done. Looking forward to running the car next weekend with you and Carlton. Let me know what day to meet up. Saturday would be great if the weathers good. Im gonna try soaking my P- Supreme tires with WD-40 this week for running at BD. The stock tires should be fine for WP.

FYI, I will be out of town again on Saturday, so Sunday will work better for me....

You guys are more than welcome to go on Saturday, but the track will be hella filthy unless you bring blowers....

If you go on Sunday, I'll bring the track blower and generator....

Marco, Im running the BMW M3 body. Is it ok to cut out the window on the right side, so I can get to the pullstart with the body on? Will this affect the handling? Do I need to cut a hole on the left front side also to let the air flow through?

Thanks Marco. I got the servo mount I fabbed up installed today. Works great. Looking forward to meeting you next weekend, and tearing up the asphalt!
