Well, since I race, I replace a bearing the moment it feels gritty AND about every gallon. (If im using cheap $1 bearings, the Boca Green Seals last FAR longer) I feel since I have the vehicle apart already I might as well maintain the whole vehicle, since Id rather lose a race because of my driving ability rather than my maintenance abilities.

Carburator stuck
Hi guys,
I know the carburetor issues were discussed before, I just wonder if it applies to a new Trinity Platinum .21 Drake engine or if I should try something else?
It is getting stuck about a quarter travel as son as the engine gets warm.
Thanks in advance for your ideas

Hi.
Does any of you know if any other cars front diff will fit the 8ight?
I'm keen on testing a Tactyl II bbf diff.
